1. Wide-Legged Trousers

If you have been paying attention, you might have noticed that the last few fashion seasons have seen men stick to loose cuts, relaxed shaped, and comfortable fits. Regardless of the kind of clothing article that we may be talking about, loose fits have been noted around, and many tall men around the world have come to accept them. Jeans, overcoats, hoodies, sweatshirts, and of course trousers.

When shopping for clothes for big and tall men, you can go for wide-legged jeans that are not too baggy nor too loose. Choose a straight fit that borders between baggy and skinny.

2. Get Your Style On with Satchels and Cross Body Bags

Purchasing bags based on prevailing trends have for many years been a preserve of stylish women. But recent times have seen men catch up with their female counterparts. The modern tall man will today change his bag according to the outfit that he is donning, his needs, wants, and what is expected of him timewise.

Designers have been picking up on what men expect from their carriers and using this information to come up with new designs every few months.

3. Vertical Stripes for the Big Man

It is likely that you had a great time spotting checks due to their versatility and stylish looks. Can you even remember a time when stripes were not fashionable? You probably can’t because stripes have always been in fashion. It is a trend that has been around for a long time, and one that continues to persist.

Whether you would instead wear them with formal pants, or in a casual manner, vertical stripes still have a lot to offer as far as clothes for big and tall men go.

4. Monochrome Colors for the Tall Modern Man

Neutral colors, e.g., black and white have never gone out of style. There is, however, a possibility that you have been wearing these colors since you can remember, and mostly rely on them when you do not have any other color to build on. But ever tried wearing white during the winter season, and black during the summer months?

You will likely answer Yes for the former, and No for the latter. In 2018, try and indulge yourself more by picking monochrome colors for all seasons.

5. Cuban Collars

Do you remember the stylish Hawaiian prints which saw the entire world take part in this fashion wave characterized by new-stylish collars? The prints may have been swept away by changing times, but the collar—popularly known as the Cuban collar—is still very much in style. Its neckline was commonly used in 2017, and you can expect to see much more of it this year.
