Plus Size For Man

You should be able to like a shirt first and check the size second. Not the other way round.

Style Union’s plus size collection for men is available in all plus sizes. Below is how to find your fit, what to check before you order, and how to style it so it looks sharp and stays comfortable all day.

How do you choose plus size clothes for men that fit well?

Measure the chest at its fullest point, the waist where you wear your trousers and the thigh at its widest. Compare them with the size chart on the product page rather than relying on the size you wear at other brands. Every brand follows its own sizing, so the label alone may not tell you how a garment will fit.

For tops, the shoulder seam should sit at the edge of your shoulder, and the front should close across the chest without pulling. For trousers, the thigh and hip area matter more than the waist, since a belt can adjust the waist but nothing adjusts a tight thigh.

Which fit works best: slim, regular or relaxed?

Regular fit is the safest choice. Slim cuts tend to pull across the chest and stomach, and very loose cuts add volume and make hems hang lower than intended. A regular or lightly relaxed fit follows your build without clinging. For trousers, a straight leg or a slightly tapered leg (one that narrows a little towards the ankle) is easier to wear than a wide one.

How do you measure yourself for the right size?

Use soft tape and stand straight. Measure the chest under the arms at its fullest point, keeping the tape level. Measure the waist where your trousers sit and the thigh at its widest, near the top. For sleeve length, measure from the shoulder point to the wrist.

If the numbers fall in different sizes, go by the area that matters most for that garment: chest and shoulders for tops, thighs and seats for bottoms.

Which size should you pick when you are between two?

Take the larger size if the fabric has no stretch. Tops can be tucked and trousers can be belted, but a tight fit limits how you move. If the product page mentions stretch in the fabric, your usual size generally works. Trust the chart measurements over the size label.

How do you style your outfits?

• Tuck or untuck by hem length. A shirt with a straight hem can go untucked if it ends around the middle of the zip. Anything longer looks better tucked in.
• Pick solid colours or small-scale patterns. Large prints stretch across the chest and lose their shape.
• Wear trousers at the natural waist, not below the stomach, with a belt that matches your shoes.
• Layer with an unbuttoned overshirt or jacket over a plain tee. It adds structure and works for casual office days.
• Get the lengths right. Sleeves should end at the wrist bone, and trousers should rest on the shoe with at most a slight fold at the hem.

What should you check before you order?

Four checks cover most fit problems:

1. Compare your chest, waist and thigh with the size chart.
2. Look at the garment length listed for your size.
3. Check the model’s height and the size he is wearing.
4. Read the description for stretch, since it decides whether to size up.
