Clothes for Bigger Men.
A guide to Clothing for Big and Tall Men.We started our ebay store out of pure frustration - the man in our household is 199cm tall and ~120kg - finding Plus sizesclothes he liked at a reasonable price and quality was a nightmare!. Living in regional Western Australia didn't help either! So became Style Plus.We have discovered on our ebay journey that sizes vary dramatically and hope this guide can give you a little guidance in your purchases.Australian Sizes compared to others.Many of our department and variety stores now stock larger sizes - be careful as they are not always as big as they seem. And if the item you are looking at is an American sizing you can guarantee that it will be bigger, usually much bigger!We have also found that usually the Americangarments are a lot better quality, but this is just our observation. For example, hubby usually wears a Target 6 or 7XL, a Hard Yakka 4XL and in American sizes he is a 2XL if that.Some American sizes either have a "T" or a "B" on the end eg. 2XLT or XLB this means that they have been specifically made for a "Taller" or "Bigger" man and are usually longer orwider.Always check measurements!Things to help you make the right choice.Know your measurements. Get someone to help you measure as otherwise it can be inaccurate. Measure:
