Style guides are great – we write rather a lot of them, actually – and there’s one constant across them all: the importance of fit. Of course, it’s not always as easy as simply knowing which size to buy, especially without falling into what the industry considers a standard frame.

Fortunately, brands and retailers are doing increasingly more to cater for big and tall blokes. Whether it’s hot-off-the-press trend pieces or investment buys, these ten have got you (and your long legs) covered.

M&S

Best For: Everyday Tailoring

Still one of the nation’s most beloved stores, Marks & Spencer has upped its big and tall game for tailoring this season, with 53 per cent more options to choose from across different styles, fits and, most importantly, sizes.

The high street giant now offers over 150 suits in four fits, with measurements ranging from 36” short to 54” extra long on jackets and 28” to 48” waist on trousers, with leg lengths from 29” to 37”.

River Island

Best For: Smart-Casual

Home of contemporary classics on the high street, River Island’s Big & Tall range is a fashion-forward collection comprising 117 options from the retailer’s mainline offering.

Spanning everything from raglan sleeve T-shirts and lightweight outerwear to quality denim and classic Oxford shirts, sizes extend to 48” waist, XXXXL/55” chest, and shoe size 13.

BoohooMAN

Best For: Trends

Ahead of launching a full big and tall range in July, BoohooMAN has begun offering a selection of trend-led items to keep you looking sharp, however you measure up.

Currently, sizes reach up to XXL across outerwear and denim, but by late summer this will go up to 4XL and feature the trend-led pieces straight out of the men’s fashion weeks, too.

Jacamo

Best For: All-Rounder

One of the best-known names on the plus size scene, Jacamo is an all round hub for bigger guys, offering clothes that don’t resort to elasticated waists.
