Boy can we relate to monkey arms in my family! My husband and teen boys are all arms! I wish that I could tell you there was one perfect solution, but I don’t know of any. It seems that we order many items and some are hits and some are misses. When you have an athletic build, many big and tall items are just cut too big and the slims may be too tight.  Some of the normal sizes are too loose too, but we just keep looking. You will do best with ordering shirts by neck size and sleeve lengths. The started sizes such as XLT, etc. often don’t give sleeve measurements.  But, I understand that it’s frustrating to find some with style.
First off you may want to try a custom made to your measurements shirt. Some of these options are out of your budget, but a few are affordable.  Just for fun I created an easy care shirt from Tailor 4 Less made of an easy care fabric with a contrasting outside color. I think the contrasting neck, adds a bit more style to your normal shirt.

Another company you may want to try if you want a splurge – or hint to your loved ones for Christmas – is Blank Label. Their custom-made shirts start at around $100.

Overall, I think patterned shirts look more stylish than solid colored ones. You mentioned that you get most of your shirts from Lands’ End, JCPenney’s and Macy’s and I think for the money, you are shopping at some of the right stores.  JCP – has the extra tall dress shirt options so that really helps with extra torso length too. I do know that you can find a wider choice from those stores by shopping online vs. the in-store selection.

In our newsletter that went out today, we showed a classic look for men.  As we mentioned, you can take any dress shirt and jazz it up with a v-neck sweater, leather jacket or blazer. See photo:

Tall  Jeans

You mentioned some the brands and jeans, but are feeling like they are too loose and baggy.  I would suggest that you purchase straight leg jeans and pants. They are super stylish and flatter just about anyone.

Tall Pants

As far as pants go for the younger crowd, avoid pleated waist pants at all costs. It not only adds pounds, but they are outdated and old-fashioned.

These have a flat front and are wrinkle free – the permanent front crease gives it a dressier look.

I hope I’ve given you a few new options to consider.  You can also find more pants and jeans by inseams here.

Men’s Dress Shirt with 37 Inch Sleeves

By February 24, 2008

Lands’ End makes nice big and tall clothing for men. Today I found a couple of
wrinkle- free dress shirts with 37  inch sleeves. I know how hard it can be to find these sizes as my husband and father-in-law both have extra long arms. I always try to find wrinkle-free shirts as I don’t have time to iron. These patterned tall dress shirts are available in several colors in stripes or plaids. They’ll add interest to your business wardrobe, but also do double duty on the weekends with jeans or chinos. They’re silky soft as can be, woven of our ultra-fine “80’s” cotton yarns, and tailored with “old world” touches that include full single-needle stitching and long tuck-in tails. $59
