Being tall has its advantages, but finding well-fitting clothing isn’t always easy. Sleeves that are too short, pants that don’t reach far enough, or outfits that make you look even taller? In this blog, we share practical style tips for tall men – what works and what should be avoided.
1. Focus on fit – not just length
Don’t size up just to get more length. Look for slim or tailored fits in long sizes to avoid looking baggy or oversized.
✅ Slim or tailored fit
❌ Oversized doesn’t equal long
2. Avoid too many vertical lines
Vertical stripes can make you appear taller. Instead, opt for solid colours or subtle patterns that balance your silhouette.
✅ Solid colours or subtle prints
❌ Full-length vertical stripes
3. Use layering
Layering breaks up your height and adds structure to your look. Try a shirt with a sweater or jacket, or wear an open overshirt over a tee.
✅ Vest over shirt
✅ Overshirt over T-shirt
4. Watch sleeve and trouser lengths
One of the biggest issues for tall men: sleeves and legs that are too short. Choose long-sleeve options or brands that offer tall fits.
