Welke kleding draag je als je gespierd bent?

What clothes do you wear when you are muscular?

💡 Why it matters

If you’re muscular, you’ve probably dealt with:

  • Shirts pulling across your chest

  • Tees that are too loose at the waist

  • Trousers that fit your legs but sag around the hips

This guide shows you how to dress with style and confidence, without looking like you’re headed to the gym.

👉 Check out Vercate’s collection of stretch basics


🔹 1. Opt for stretch (not sportswear)

Look for structured classics made from stretch materials. You’ll get freedom of movement and a clean silhouette.

👕 Think:

  • Dress shirts with 3–5% elastane

  • Knitted or pique polos

  • Chinos with a flexible waistband

👉 Explore stretch shirts and polo shirts


🔹 2. Get the shoulder fit right

Make sure:

  • Seams sit exactly on your shoulder line

  • No strain when you move

  • Sleeve length stops at your wrist bone

💡 Tip: Cutaway collars give balance to a broad chest and neck – a Vercate essential.


🔹 3. Slim fit beats skinny fit

A slim fit hugs your shape without squeezing it. Skinny fits usually look too tight and awkward.

✅ Slim = modern, tailored
❌ Skinny = restrictive, often unflattering

👉 Try Vercate chinos


🔹 4. Keep it simple

You don’t need bold logos or loud prints.

✅ Stick to:

  • Solid colours

  • Luxe materials (oxford, pique, stretch cotton)

  • Minimal detailing

👉 Discover clean basics


🔹 5. Yes, you can layer

Worried about looking bulky? Choose light fabrics and smart layers:

  • Polo + overshirt

  • Tee + open linen shirt

  • Chino + dress shirt + lightweight blazer


✅ Summary

For muscular men, the key is balance:

  • Comfortable stretch

  • Proper shoulder fit

  • Slim (not tight) cuts

  • Clean design

  • Smart layering
