@@bubblegumturtle213 He's a mob boss type villain from Marvel Comics, often seen fighting Spider-Man. But yes, he was featured in the Daredevil Netflix series. His portrayal was very intimidating. I hate to give spoilers, but in one episode he literally decapitated a guy with a car door for embarrassing him in front of his date.
Thanks for making this. I'm 6'2 and 270lbs. What I wear is such and important part of my life. I started getting my jeans tailored last year and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Also, I totally agree about trying things on. I wore 40 jeans forever, and then one day tried on a 38 and couldn't believe that they actually fit! Thanks for great advice.

I watched this video for the first time a long time ago . I’m a service manager for an Hvac and plumbing company. I’m a bigger guy. I don’t dress for Wall Street, but I invested in higher-end construction brand clothing, Duluth and carhartt brands mainly. Then I changed my attitude to large and in charge and stopped worrying about what people my think of me, I’m in command of my style! From out in the field , to the conference room , and all team meetings in front of 200 people. It was a literal overnight response I got in the office and the guys out In the field. My nervousness is gone and The respect is there. The right clothing to get the look you need and the right attitude can do wonders for your career. This video is perfect advice.
@@OfficialLPBS my friend...it doesn't matter...if you know how to put that look together or want to learn you will be just fine.....confidence..you can do it.......PEACE and love to you and your family....remember all things are positive.....only believe

This was so helpful!! I got so many great tips for my husband's wardrobe. He is so underconfident and I hate when people don't take him seriously but he has 20 years of business experience and so much emotional maturity. He brings so much gravitas to a room and I'm excited to style him sharp :D
DXL is the best option for the Big Man. They are a little pricey but there is no better place to shop. They have everything and they do a lot of sales. I started going there when i was 320 lbs and was always the best dressed man at the office. You will be positively noticed.
@@craigmiller4536 thanks for mentioning DXL….Thankfully there is one where I live here in Oklahoma City. I’m gonna go check it out because I need help for more ideas to dress business casual.
It motivates me to see that Every day you wake up to accomplish a mission ..a mission to make other's a better version of themselves..hats off and kuddos to you man 🔥 As a content creator it makes me proud.
Good tips Antonio. As a guy who just lost 55 lbs I got a lot of my clothes tailored to my new body for the time being. I'm working on my new wardrobe slowly but surely.
Watching this because I do all the clothing shopping and my husband is 6'5 and 300lbs. He has massive shoulders and not a huge waist so it's hard to find clothes that fit him, this video was helpful.
At 5'11" and 280, I have a big build. I carry it well, cause I was in the military and still have big shoulders, but that just mean I need to patch how I present myself. For most of my clothing needs, I love the Kohl's big and tall section. I normally have to buy a 3xl, but if I can find a nice 2xt with a wide collar, I go for it every time. One tip for my fellow big guys, when possible, roll up a long sleeve shirt instead of a short sleeve. we tend to have big beefy arms, draw some attention there.
This is awesome! My partner is a big guy and is very self conscious, only wears the same 3 outfits and all of them are the same oversized shirt and long cargo pants, I’m taking him shopping this weekend for some new fits to boost up his confidence! You’re in for is very helpful for me to help him, thankyou :)
Lineage brand, slim suit for big and tall. I'm 52R 46W and it looks great for the bigger person. I'm 5'11 at 265lbs and the look was extremely modern with a well fit.
I'm 6'2 426 pounds and continuing to lose weight. I got laid off and have to go back to the office for any job I get now. I haven't worn a suit since I was married and I'm low key terrified of this step I want to take in my life. I shave my head. I have a small budget and no idea where to start but have an in person interview in a few days.
Want to add a second comment here. As I stated earlier, I am short 5'3". I am also round. I can't tell you how many times another person has equated my height with competence. Same with my weight. Even when I am helping someone move. How many guys come running over thinking that I am weak. It's sad really. When I started dressing well at work, I noticed that some wanted to hear my ideas and take my contributions seriously (we are project-based work). I cannot emphasize enough how dressing well really affects the way people treat you.
All of these are good tips for winters. There's no way a big guy can dress like that in the summer without melting. We already sweat more than the average person.
I remember when I was fat I hated dressing sharp now I absolutely love it I’m a second time weight loss champion. Lost it the first time so I could join the military then I gained it back after getting married. Decided to get back in shape May of 2014 and maintained.
I just got a promotion at work, and need to dress the part. Sadly, I have put on some Covid weight (a lot). I buy a shirt that fits my shoulders and chest... then the sleeves are far too long. Looking at learning from this channel. As a 61 year old man, 5'8" 256lbs.... I'm wanting to take on a classic look that will help me exude confidence and pull me up to me peers.
As I posted in reply to one of your other videos, and you allude to: Remember that your wast and your stomach are not in the same location. Your waist is at your hips. You can buy (for example) underwear for your waist size, but generally should not buy pants that size. IMHO, your pants should fit at the center of your stomach, with the pants waist horizontal--nothing calls attention to your stomach size as much as having pants whose waist is below your stomach (at your waist) so your stomach is hanging over your pants waist and belt. That usually requires high-rise pants and suspenders (as he mentioned). Yes, you can wear suspenders with casual pants including jeans and khakis. Suspenders are a great way to add some pop to your outfit however informal or formal it is, don't be intimidated about them. Or you can wear suspenders that do not call attention to them--for example, even denim suspenders with jeans.
My issue has always been the way my weight and size shifts when I sit down. It’s one thing to have attractive fitted clothing when I’m standing, but then I sit down and I’m bursting out in the middle.
I love this video. I already do a lot of these. I'm 5'9" and 300lbs and it is very difficult to not look sloppy at my height and weight. Bonus, I have HUGE shoulders. I love the 20's and 30's style of dress for men and it actually fits my body type well. You asked about brands and stores; believe it or not Walmart carries a pair of pants that works very well for the pear or oval shape. Wrangler Comfort Flexfit cargo pants. The cargo pocket is an inside pocket with a hidden zipper so you don't see it. They actually look like a trouser or slack. They are made with polyester/nylon flex material and work very well with suspenders with braces rather than clips. Get a size larger and you can wear them at the natural waist.
Same bro, 5'9 and pushing 300lbs...not fun at all. I'm not rich either so all this talk about tailors and expensive clothes doesn't work for my or my lifestyle as i don't work an important job that requires flash clothing. Got a new plan to cut myself back to 210lbs, that way i can wear normal clothes again, wish me luck 😂
My people. Same size and weigh And yeah, those Wranglers are amazing. I get the ones made of mostly cotton and twill. That plus a pair of 1.5in suspenders at 48in. So much better than pulling a belt so tight you mark up your hips
I recently turned 60 and have (finally) considered ditching the ole t-shirt hang out stoner gig. Perhaps this video, and/or others, will help me along to find a new me.
There needs to be a muscle fit esque shirt which is tight short sleeve loose belly, I’m tired of either my arms looking swamped or my belly lookin huge
Thank you for this video. Im disabled, and spent the last 3 years teaching myself how to overcome thst by making jewelry. But its hard to sell when you look like a big slob. So im looking into this, i appreciate the content to teach me everything for free
It would be great if you talked about big, short men! I believe this is s category rarely touched upon! I'm 5'6" and 190lbs! Fortunately, I've been learning a lot on how to dress for my body, but when/if I don't do it right, I can lot stumpy.
I’m 5’7” and 230lbs. I find this size very difficult, as I’m short and xxl shirts are long and oversized, xl is too tight to button. All pants are too long at the 36-38 waist length.
My stepson is sloppy and his beard and hair unkempt. He needs to clean up for his career change, and so I am charged with getting him presentable. I loved your presentation, ideas, and tips, and it was so helpful. I now have a better idea of what I need to do, and where I need to go to get him spiffed up. Thanks so much!
I just found this out last week, but Shaquille O’Neal has a big and tall section of suits and other professional clothes and for a really good price and obviously if it fits shaq it’ll fit everyone
I’m a big guy 6ft. 245lbs with gynecomastia & a big butt & round hips. It’s hard to find clothes to fit me, but I’m a clothes horse, I love clothes. Nothing makes me feel better about myself than putting on nice trousers, nice shirt & a sports jacket and nice dress shoes. I get gawked at a lot, in the small town in Texas that I live, where most men in the summer wear big cargo shorts, t-shirts or tank top, when it’s colder they wear jeans and boots, to restaurants, theaters, anywhere.
Joey Smith Wowwww you’re literally a whole foot taller then me,I’m only 5’8 lol but Heyy tho,women like taller men over short dudes like me so that’s a plus bro
I love this video man. I had to work on myself so hard just to dare and wear more "fancy" clothing. I'm a huge hat-fan and if i wear anything else than a baseballcap or flatcap i can feel the looks pierce in my back, but screw their looks. You can do whatever you want, and what makes you feel GOOD as long as you don't hurt others with it, and nice clothing is part of this.
I'm 36 years old and a pretty big guy myself (around 5'11" and 340 lbs) and I just started going in this direction recently I've been a big dude fr a while (about 6 or 7 years now) and for so long my natural inclination was to just focus on "being comfortable" - so I just tried to buy everything as lose as possible. When going out to the shops I would wear things like (horror) basketball shorts and loose t-shirts and sports shoes. Even to work I would dress down about as mch as I could get away with while still meeting the dress code - which was usually jeans, sports joggers and T-shirt or polo shirt - all as lose as possible. I guess my mentality was always that I'm a big dude, I'm not impreasing anybody, so why bother trying? But for a few months now I;'ve been focussing a lot on sel-improvemenet, and I decided I needed to completely change my outlook on life. Because when you are a big guy, it's already inevitable that people are going to look at you and assume (by default) that you are lazy, that you lack discipline, and that you lack confidence / pride in yourself. Those assumptions almost certainly are just as much a turnoff to people (especially women) as your actual body itself, so I figured the worst thing i can posible do is reinforce those stereotypes by dressing in the sloppiest, laziest way possible. So starting around 3 months ago, I've made a really dramatic change in the way I think and the way I present myself, and it all started with tone simple concept: "dont dress according to how I think people will view me - dress acording to how I want people to view me". - If I dont want people to think I'm messy/loppy, then take the time to make sure I have clothes that fit me as best as they can. - If I dont want people to think im lazy, then present myself in a way that makes it clear I put in more effort then I needed to - If I dont want people to think I take no pride in my appearance, then put some real thought into the items I match together so that others can see that I've really thought about my entire outfit So for the first time in years, I've really invested a lot of extra money over the past few months into my wardrobe. I've bought 8-10 nice dress shirts, some trousers and jeans, 4 or 5 pairs of quality dress shoes, a few nice belts, and a few accessories (watches, sunglasses, cufflinks, etc) - with the idea being now that now I have such a variety of items that there is really never a scenario where I can't put together an outfit where every items fits together well and looks like it was properly thought out. And since Ive been dressing better I can't even describe how much the rest of my mentality has changed. Simply knowing that I'm the best dressed person in the room most of the time (and dont looke like a lazy slob) has boosted my confidence in a huge way both socially and in the workplace. That increased confidence really does create a domino effect, because seeing how much better if feels now makes me want to do more things to better myself so I can even further boost that confidence. It helped motivate me to get on a serious diet, to put more effort into my professional development, etc. Sorry for the long post but just putting this out there in case ther are other guys out there who are big who used to have that same type of mentality I did, hopefully this post can help to motivate some of those people to change their way of viewing themselves. It all comes down to just doign everything within your power to try and be the best man you can be!
Don't apologize for utilizing your time to boost others up. I appreciate your post, the journey, and the boost it gave me in the area of resolving to get back to bettering myself in a similar fashion... pun intended. :)
I've been on a similar journey for the last couple years. That mindset shift has even lead me to getting back into a simple yet totally doable walking/exercise routine and eating smarter/healthier. I'm not making any invasive diet/exercise program jumps, because I've started and failed those routinely. Just being better than yesterday... everyday. And this has helped in the style shift and confidence areas too. Just feeling better physically, emotionally and mentally leads to more options and possibilities in life, style and career. Keep up the good work and be sure to mark your accomplishments even if they're small, because you did it... Not anyone else! Well Done, Sir!🙌🥰🙌
LONG/HIGH RISE - So true, thank you Antonio. All trousers used to be of a higher rise. Then about eleven years ago they all went low rise. For a bigger guy that was bad news. Lands’ End does regular and long rise in their khakis and dress pants. It’s all I’ll buy. Note to fellow viewers - Long Rise is different from “Tall.” Tall is about the outseam (ie how long the pants are overall), whereas Long Rise is about the inseam (ie how much room there is from the crotch to your belt line). I have to have Long Rise or my stomach hangs over my belt line. No good. I’d be screwed without Lands’ End.
This really helped me out Antonio. I’m actually in the transition in clothing right now but for sure it is about dressing smart that compliments and not to distract or focus on my size.
I recommend GH Bass for shirts Britches for pants And for suits that are affordable and fitting Alain depetit But off course most clothes should go to the tailor maybe for minor procedures to fit perfectly
Great video I’m also a big guy. I work as a security guard and I make sure my uniform is neatly pressed & clean and I go for my haircut every two weeks. As a result I’ve worked in a upscale residential buildings, office buildings and 5 star resorts. Because of my need appearance i’ve never been out of work not even during this pandemic. By the way I shop at DXL here in Tampa Florida. They are great they have a lot of selections for big guys both in store and online.
Glad I found this, even if it's an older video. 6 foot and just lost some weight 315 -> 268. Saw a picture of myself today with the smaller sized jeans I just bought, and they were hanging so far down my backside, I couldn't believe it. Just bought some suspenders and the next size down on the waistline.
I like this one. I go to the gym. My husband doesn't. And we often go out but he sometimes feel like he doesn't look good. His size, i do not mind at all. He is the most handsome and hottest man I know. But doesn't think the same. So I help him in choosing his clothes especially when we're dining out and shower him with lots of compliments. Which I saw, worked boost his confidence. So thanks for thia video. It's great of a help cause I ran out of ideas. 😁
Thank you, Antonio. As a big man of 5'8 and 330 lbs I understand how to be Large and In Charge. I agree with all your tips. Especially on the pants, suspenders, beards and hats. For big men its the accessories that make all the difference. You have to step it up that extra level of style. When I'm at an event or mixer with all suits, I'm the only one with a boutonniere and a Homburg or Bowler hat, or a waistcoat and pocket-watch and chain. I'm a big man and commonly the best dressed at the party, and you better know I stand out as not a fat guy, but a Big Man living large! Its the most important thing you said: ITS ALL ABOUT CONFIDENCE! Simply because you are a big man doesn't mean you cant be charming, charismatic,commanding, and yes even sexy. NEVER HIDE! STAND OUT AND BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE! DEMAND RESPECT IN YOUR SPEECH, DRESS, AND BODY LANGUAGE! Make your affect a gentlemanly but powerful personality. You have to walk into a room like YOU ARE King Pin and back up that sharp look with confidence and refinement. You are big, not a medieval leper outcast. You can have women, money, success and fame the same as any other man of any size if you want it, work for it, and believe in yourself.
Great video!!! I usually go to casual male XL for my clothes mainly because I’ve been a BIG guy all my life and also that’s been a personal goal for myself to be well groomed and not sloppy and well dressed
A lot of these tips may work for a Man in the office. What about those of us who work on the production side, the dirtier side of life? Or those of us who work from check to check?
dogmaticlord you can practice when your not at work and out with friends and family. Additionally, try looking at thrift stores, these were a great for me when I was in college. It’s hit and miss on good items but you’ll still find something about 60% of the time and easy on the wallet. And even though you work from check to check save up and find a tailor. They can do pretty cheap alterations depending on alter (tapering sleeves and taking in the waist being common). Hope this helps!
I'm seeing a lot of comments that don't list stores for bigger guys to shop at. Was hoping to find something, but guess it's like shopping at a regular store.
Here in Canada, Daniel Hechter is a great brand for the larger gentlemen who wants to look stylish. I've bought a sport jacket, a number of long sleeve sport shirts and two coats from them thus far. Great video Antonio!
I am a big guy. I struggled with finding clothes that fit me. And forget about trying to find my size in the stores on a constant basis. I found a company that focus on big guys. They are more for us blue colar than white colar. Duluth Trading Company. Now, they have casual clothing more for guys who spend time in the office, but needs to be able to hold up to the trip out to the field. I have been wearing there clothes in a machine shop for years and they hold up very well. I do suggest going to a store, even if it's a 3 hr haul like mine, and try on EVERYTHING. Bring a note pad and write down all the styles and sizes that fit. This way you can reorder online and it will fit just right. Case in point, I wear a 2XL t-shirt, XL tall button shirt and jacket, and a XL sweater. Just because many guys I work with wears t-shirts dosen't mean that I can't up my style, especially since I have been there the longest, and wear a solid color button up shirt with my jeans.
I appreciate the great tips. I was a little taken back when you referred to dressing comfy to sloppiness but I see your point. I don't live a lifestyle to warrant suits ties and all that. I would like to elevate my style and find a happy medium between the two extremes. Wish me luck and drop some tips or links if you have. God bless Sir. I can see you're passionate about helping your fellow man be their best.
Good on you for making that decision. As a woman married to a tradesman who's transitioned from baggy jeans, t-shirts and sneakers to a more dapper version of himself, I can second Antonio's recommendation to do it gradually and learn along the way. Maybe start off with a pair of dark jeans and t-shirt that fit well and add a leather jacket. Get a long sleeved, linen shirt that monochromatically matches your pants and roll the sleeves up below the elbow for a dressier but still relaxed look. Swap out sport shoes for something in leather, perhaps an elastic-gusset dress shoe until you're comfortable to transition to lace-ups. And yes, definitely keep your head and facial hair looking sharp at a really good barber.
As a large man, with an even larger head, finding off-the-rack that (mostly) fits is definitely a challenge. Because of my 18 1/2-inch neck, I have to buy slim-fit shirts so they don't fit like circus tents. And as I have aged, my shape, and therefore suit size, has changed. Ten years ago, I was just stepping up from 42 long to 44 long. Now I'm in a 46 regular as my arms haven't grown, but other areas have. As for suspenders, I love them, but for us with a little extra around the middle, it becomes an issue with top part of the waistband folding forward, since there's no belt to hold it in place.
I have been following for years after my son and just not paying attention I put on the weight. This is amazing video on my transition back to normal weight. Thanks again!
I don’t know why, but large men look particularly good in tucked dress shirts. Due to their big size the clothing is seamless with their body. Since I’m rather slim it looks weird when I wear tucked dress shirts.
Thank you for this video, my fiance is a big guy and I've watched so many videos that made no sense to me. Thank you for helping me learn how to dress my man.
LoL ..the kingpin is the look I'm going for with my husband. He has big shoulders , but I like lighter color to make him look nice or less scary and dark for a power move.
Good video, I'm a big guy and I utilize alot of these tips. I'm not a big one wearing suspenders, I prefer belts. I order clothes from King Size and shop at the local DXL clothing store.
I am large and short. I hate the fact that I can buy a cheap pair of pants, but then have to pay $28 more just to get them hemmed. Same with suit jackets and the like. Don;t even get me started on jeans. I wish they made hems shorter than 29. 25-27 would be absolutely ideal.
High waisted pants are your friend here and suspenders too. Belts will not be ideal and no means of pants management isn't good either. High waisted pants are fantastic though. As a tall fat dude, it is a real life changer. If your outer shirt is untucked, just wear suspenders between undershirt and outer shirt. Only wear t-shirts? Stop wearing underwear as outerwear.
I got the answer for you, my friend. Get a pair of Perry Belt-clip suspenders. They have plastic hooks that hook under your belt. So when wearing jeans wear the suspenders underneath against your skin and the t-shirt over top. Nobody will even see them. Keeps your pants up on your waist, makes your pant leg fall correctly and looks so much better. Ive done it for years. The suspenders dont chafe me, but if they do so to you then wear a white undershirt. Another hack hint: though you shouldn't wear a belt with a suit, if you wear a waist coat, get it with a slightly longer length, then you can wear the perry belt clip with the belt under the vest and nobody can see it. I do this all the time. Little cheat when you don't feel like taking all your pants to the tailor to put buttons on the inside for the traditional suspenders.
I'm 6'3", 300 pounds and have a high protein diet, and a pretty active lifestyle. My thighs are MASSIVE thanks to my work, and hobbies my thighs just became huge and even disproportionate. My issue is finding jeans that fit my thighs and my waiste. It's impossible. I've been looking for years and keep coming up with nothing but baggy flowy hiking pants. I'm a hiker but I want to look nice on the side and it is SO hard. I wish I wasnt so large 😂
Athletic fit jeans are your friend. They specifically have extra room in the thighs and butt. I'm a dancer myself so I have really muscular thighs as well. A lot of high fashion places don't sell them, but they do at Old Navy, Walmart, etc.
As someone who lost a ton (100 lbs) but is still technically overweight and needs to lose more, this video is basically a list of things I do wrong on a daily basis, ha ha. I have sooo many pants with frayed legs and I look like I'm wearing a bag (made worse because I couldn't keep buying new clothes as I lost weight due to cost and now my clothes are easily four or five waist sizes too small). I wish tailoring was more common and less expensive. I have a suit tailor, but a suit isn't appropriate for a casual date or hanging out with my buddies in a social setting.
I'm fat but losing weight i lost 4 kg(8pound if you are from usa) but the thing is I cannot stay on the diet for a long time if I could I would have lost somewhere around 6 7 kg but until then I will follow this video
Sorry but you were off quite a bit about monochromatic. It means one color throughout the outfit. Black suit with black shirt and tie, the same in all white, blue pants with a blue shirt and blue cardigan, etc. Mono = one, chromatic = color. The two examples you showed were not monochromatic. Otherwise, another excellent video.
Great video as always! Can you do a video on where your pant should sit on your waist? I see a lot of bigger guys wear their pants low. Is this the new norm?

Good video and advice Antonio, but your collar is way too short and wide, and your tie knot is way too small, same your shirt, it looks too tight!!
As soon as you said "Large and in-charge" my mind went immediately to the Kingpin, then you mentioned him a minute later.

Is this a TV show?

Thanks for making this. I'm 6'2 and 270lbs. What I wear is such and important part of my life. I started getting my jeans tailored last year and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Also, I totally agree about trying things on. I wore 40 jeans forever, and then one day tried on a 38 and couldn't believe that they actually fit! Thanks for great advice.

Thank you. I really hated the way he explains it.
Wasn't this supposed to be 21 tips?
I watched this video for the first time a long time ago . I’m a service manager for an Hvac and plumbing company. I’m a bigger guy. I don’t dress for Wall Street, but I invested in higher-end construction brand clothing, Duluth and carhartt brands mainly. Then I changed my attitude to large and in charge and stopped worrying about what people my think of me, I’m in command of my style! From out in the field , to the conference room , and all team meetings in front of 200 people. It was a literal overnight response I got in the office and the guys out In the field. My nervousness is gone and The respect is there. The right clothing to get the look you need and the right attitude can do wonders for your career. This video is perfect advice.
Hvac casual in the morning, drip, style and self care at night
I believe that looking your best is one of the key to attraction. No matter your size or shape.
I couldn't agree more. Fit is king! 👍

I noticed more of your videos for chubby men suggest jackets and sweaters , but what should ppl like me do who lives in TX and it is hot all year :D
Same, I live in NC. In summer, spring, and fall I'd be soup in a jacket.
@@JamesEast-iy3ov Tampa FL here - try 2 very lightweight layers, good look for hot summer days: camp shirt with collar worn unbuttoned over a T-shirt or tank top
This was so helpful!! I got so many great tips for my husband's wardrobe. He is so underconfident and I hate when people don't take him seriously but he has 20 years of business experience and so much emotional maturity. He brings so much gravitas to a room and I'm excited to style him sharp :D
DXL is the best option for the Big Man. They are a little pricey but there is no better place to shop. They have everything and they do a lot of sales. I started going there when i was 320 lbs and was always the best dressed man at the office. You will be positively noticed.
@@craigmiller4536 thanks for mentioning DXL….Thankfully there is one where I live here in Oklahoma City. I’m gonna go check it out because I need help for more ideas to dress business casual.
It motivates me to see that Every day you wake up to accomplish a mission ..a mission to make other's a better version of themselves..hats off and kuddos to you man 🔥 As a content creator it makes me proud.
Thanks man. I appreciate it - especially when it comes from a fellow creator.
Same here. You motivate me. You and Gentlemen’s Gazzete (I’m sure I misspelled it) motived me to dress up.
Good tips Antonio. As a guy who just lost 55 lbs I got a lot of my clothes tailored to my new body for the time being. I'm working on my new wardrobe slowly but surely.
That's a good problem to have, man. Congratulations on the transformation!
Congratulations! Keep it up Dane ;)
Perfect timing, Antonio...my dad was talking about dressing better last night. I'm gonna send him this 👌
Sounds great. Thanks Demetrios. Let me know what he thinks after watching the video
Please do an episode specifically for TALL men. Our needs are unique to “big” men
6ft9 here, i agree
6ft6 agree
6’8” - 300 lbs. not overly skinny, not overly paunchy. 15 EEE shoe. High Fashion/ Style has not been kind to us.
@@Myoldnameiscringy I'm 275lbs but my shoe size has stayed normal, size 47EU
Thanks Chris. We'll add this to our queue. - RMRS team
Lmao I love how he said fat. He’s keeping it real ! You don’t want people to assume your sloppy
Watching this because I do all the clothing shopping and my husband is 6'5 and 300lbs. He has massive shoulders and not a huge waist so it's hard to find clothes that fit him, this video was helpful.
At 5'11" and 280, I have a big build. I carry it well, cause I was in the military and still have big shoulders, but that just mean I need to patch how I present myself.
For most of my clothing needs, I love the Kohl's big and tall section. I normally have to buy a 3xl, but if I can find a nice 2xt with a wide collar, I go for it every time.
One tip for my fellow big guys, when possible, roll up a long sleeve shirt instead of a short sleeve. we tend to have big beefy arms, draw some attention there.
I'm a girl and I ended up watching your entire video, and I have to say, you sir have quality content. All the points you spoke about were spot on.
i started shopping at the big and tall and has changed my life for ever.
This is awesome! My partner is a big guy and is very self conscious, only wears the same 3 outfits and all of them are the same oversized shirt and long cargo pants, I’m taking him shopping this weekend for some new fits to boost up his confidence! You’re in for is very helpful for me to help him, thankyou :)
Lineage brand, slim suit for big and tall. I'm 52R 46W and it looks great for the bigger person. I'm 5'11 at 265lbs and the look was extremely modern with a well fit.
I'm 6'2 426 pounds and continuing to lose weight. I got laid off and have to go back to the office for any job I get now. I haven't worn a suit since I was married and I'm low key terrified of this step I want to take in my life. I shave my head. I have a small budget and no idea where to start but have an in person interview in a few days.
Want to add a second comment here. As I stated earlier, I am short 5'3". I am also round. I can't tell you how many times another person has equated my height with competence. Same with my weight. Even when I am helping someone move. How many guys come running over thinking that I am weak. It's sad really. When I started dressing well at work, I noticed that some wanted to hear my ideas and take my contributions seriously (we are project-based work). I cannot emphasize enough how dressing well really affects the way people treat you.
All of these are good tips for winters. There's no way a big guy can dress like that in the summer without melting. We already sweat more than the average person.
I remember when I was fat I hated dressing sharp now I absolutely love it I’m a second time weight loss champion. Lost it the first time so I could join the military then I gained it back after getting married. Decided to get back in shape May of 2014 and maintained.
Sounds like my story, except I'm trying to work on that second go around. Working REALLY REALLY hard and it's not been much success.
Man, Kingpin really does look great! Great motivation.
I just got a promotion at work, and need to dress the part. Sadly, I have put on some Covid weight (a lot). I buy a shirt that fits my shoulders and chest... then the sleeves are far too long.
Looking at learning from this channel. As a 61 year old man, 5'8" 256lbs.... I'm wanting to take on a classic look that will help me exude confidence and pull me up to me peers.
As I posted in reply to one of your other videos, and you allude to: Remember that your wast and your stomach are not in the same location. Your waist is at your hips. You can buy (for example) underwear for your waist size, but generally should not buy pants that size. IMHO, your pants should fit at the center of your stomach, with the pants waist horizontal--nothing calls attention to your stomach size as much as having pants whose waist is below your stomach (at your waist) so your stomach is hanging over your pants waist and belt. That usually requires high-rise pants and suspenders (as he mentioned). Yes, you can wear suspenders with casual pants including jeans and khakis. Suspenders are a great way to add some pop to your outfit however informal or formal it is, don't be intimidated about them. Or you can wear suspenders that do not call attention to them--for example, even denim suspenders with jeans.
Suspenders look great on bigger men
My issue has always been the way my weight and size shifts when I sit down. It’s one thing to have attractive fitted clothing when I’m standing, but then I sit down and I’m bursting out in the middle.
Thank you for this video... 45yo former linebacker here. I appreciate this advice.
I love this video. I already do a lot of these. I'm 5'9" and 300lbs and it is very difficult to not look sloppy at my height and weight. Bonus, I have HUGE shoulders. I love the 20's and 30's style of dress for men and it actually fits my body type well. You asked about brands and stores; believe it or not Walmart carries a pair of pants that works very well for the pear or oval shape. Wrangler Comfort Flexfit cargo pants. The cargo pocket is an inside pocket with a hidden zipper so you don't see it. They actually look like a trouser or slack. They are made with polyester/nylon flex material and work very well with suspenders with braces rather than clips. Get a size larger and you can wear them at the natural waist.
Same bro, 5'9 and pushing 300lbs...not fun at all. I'm not rich either so all this talk about tailors and expensive clothes doesn't work for my or my lifestyle as i don't work an important job that requires flash clothing. Got a new plan to cut myself back to 210lbs, that way i can wear normal clothes again, wish me luck 😂
My people. Same size and weigh
And yeah, those Wranglers are amazing. I get the ones made of mostly cotton and twill. That plus a pair of 1.5in suspenders at 48in. So much better than pulling a belt so tight you mark up your hips
I recently turned 60 and have (finally) considered ditching the ole t-shirt hang out stoner gig. Perhaps this video, and/or others, will help me along to find a new me.
There needs to be a muscle fit esque shirt which is tight short sleeve loose belly, I’m tired of either my arms looking swamped or my belly lookin huge
Man this video turned my whole mind around. Thanks. I've been feeling nervous about upping my style.
Thank you for this video. Im disabled, and spent the last 3 years teaching myself how to overcome thst by making jewelry. But its hard to sell when you look like a big slob. So im looking into this, i appreciate the content to teach me everything for free
7:02 Raymound !!
Great as always
It would be great if you talked about big, short men! I believe this is s category rarely touched upon! I'm 5'6" and 190lbs! Fortunately, I've been learning a lot on how to dress for my body, but when/if I don't do it right, I can lot stumpy.
190lbs ain’t even heavy for that size.
I’m 5’7” and 230lbs. I find this size very difficult, as I’m short and xxl shirts are long and oversized, xl is too tight to button. All pants are too long at the 36-38 waist length.
For real, I have the same torso waist, width, muscles, shape, thickness etc as my 6’3 220lbs buddy except I’m 5’7 and weigh about 180lbs
My stepson is sloppy and his beard and hair unkempt. He needs to clean up for his career change, and so I am charged with getting him presentable. I loved your presentation, ideas, and tips, and it was so helpful. I now have a better idea of what I need to do, and where I need to go to get him spiffed up. Thanks so much!
I just found this out last week, but Shaquille O’Neal has a big and tall section of suits and other professional clothes and for a really good price and obviously if it fits shaq it’ll fit everyone
Steve Harvey suits have never failed me as a big man. K&G has a pretty good selection
Antonio Centeno Great video! How about doing a video for guys who are 5'7" and under? What to wear, how to wear it, what works and what to avoid.
I stay away from contrasting colors (pants vs shirts) so the eye isn't drawn to the waist. I wear a lot of gray & khaki pants with neutral shirts.
1:44 no way that's my university, Hkust! I can recognise the exact seat I used to sit in for my information systems class
I’m a big guy 6ft. 245lbs with gynecomastia & a big butt & round hips. It’s hard to find clothes to fit me, but I’m a clothes horse, I love clothes. Nothing makes me feel better about myself than putting on nice trousers, nice shirt & a sports jacket and nice dress shoes. I get gawked at a lot, in the small town in Texas that I live, where most men in the summer wear big cargo shorts, t-shirts or tank top, when it’s colder they wear jeans and boots, to restaurants, theaters, anywhere.
I really need help with all of this. I'm 6'8" 230lbs, size 16 shoe, and I have the absolute worst time finding anything that fits me properly.
Joey Smith Wowwww you’re literally a whole foot taller then me,I’m only 5’8 lol but Heyy tho,women like taller men over short dudes like me so that’s a plus bro
Similar problem here, broad shoulders and a short torso, your best bet is either find a tailor or learn a bit of sewing, maybe both.
What area do you live?
I love this video man. I had to work on myself so hard just to dare and wear more "fancy" clothing. I'm a huge hat-fan and if i wear anything else than a baseballcap or flatcap i can feel the looks pierce in my back, but screw their looks. You can do whatever you want, and what makes you feel GOOD as long as you don't hurt others with it, and nice clothing is part of this.
I'm 36 years old and a pretty big guy myself (around 5'11" and 340 lbs) and I just started going in this direction recently
I've been a big dude fr a while (about 6 or 7 years now) and for so long my natural inclination was to just focus on "being comfortable" - so I just tried to buy everything as lose as possible. When going out to the shops I would wear things like (horror) basketball shorts and loose t-shirts and sports shoes. Even to work I would dress down about as mch as I could get away with while still meeting the dress code - which was usually jeans, sports joggers and T-shirt or polo shirt - all as lose as possible.
I guess my mentality was always that I'm a big dude, I'm not impreasing anybody, so why bother trying?
But for a few months now I;'ve been focussing a lot on sel-improvemenet, and I decided I needed to completely change my outlook on life. Because when you are a big guy, it's already inevitable that people are going to look at you and assume (by default) that you are lazy, that you lack discipline, and that you lack confidence / pride in yourself. Those assumptions almost certainly are just as much a turnoff to people (especially women) as your actual body itself, so I figured the worst thing i can posible do is reinforce those stereotypes by dressing in the sloppiest, laziest way possible.
So starting around 3 months ago, I've made a really dramatic change in the way I think and the way I present myself, and it all started with tone simple concept: "dont dress according to how I think people will view me - dress acording to how I want people to view me".
- If I dont want people to think I'm messy/loppy, then take the time to make sure I have clothes that fit me as best as they can.
- If I dont want people to think im lazy, then present myself in a way that makes it clear I put in more effort then I needed to
- If I dont want people to think I take no pride in my appearance, then put some real thought into the items I match together so that others can see that I've really thought about my entire outfit
So for the first time in years, I've really invested a lot of extra money over the past few months into my wardrobe. I've bought 8-10 nice dress shirts, some trousers and jeans, 4 or 5 pairs of quality dress shoes, a few nice belts, and a few accessories (watches, sunglasses, cufflinks, etc) - with the idea being now that now I have such a variety of items that there is really never a scenario where I can't put together an outfit where every items fits together well and looks like it was properly thought out.
And since Ive been dressing better I can't even describe how much the rest of my mentality has changed. Simply knowing that I'm the best dressed person in the room most of the time (and dont looke like a lazy slob) has boosted my confidence in a huge way both socially and in the workplace. That increased confidence really does create a domino effect, because seeing how much better if feels now makes me want to do more things to better myself so I can even further boost that confidence. It helped motivate me to get on a serious diet, to put more effort into my professional development, etc.
Sorry for the long post but just putting this out there in case ther are other guys out there who are big who used to have that same type of mentality I did, hopefully this post can help to motivate some of those people to change their way of viewing themselves. It all comes down to just doign everything within your power to try and be the best man you can be!
Thank you
Don't apologize for utilizing your time to boost others up. I appreciate your post, the journey, and the boost it gave me in the area of resolving to get back to bettering myself in a similar fashion... pun intended. :)
Thanks for posting this! That really hit home!
I've been on a similar journey for the last couple years. That mindset shift has even lead me to getting back into a simple yet totally doable walking/exercise routine and eating smarter/healthier. I'm not making any invasive diet/exercise program jumps, because I've started and failed those routinely. Just being better than yesterday... everyday. And this has helped in the style shift and confidence areas too. Just feeling better physically, emotionally and mentally leads to more options and possibilities in life, style and career.
Keep up the good work and be sure to mark your accomplishments even if they're small, because you did it... Not anyone else! Well Done, Sir!🙌🥰🙌
This man does not blink.
LONG/HIGH RISE - So true, thank you Antonio. All trousers used to be of a higher rise. Then about eleven years ago they all went low rise. For a bigger guy that was bad news.
Lands’ End does regular and long rise in their khakis and dress pants. It’s all I’ll buy. Note to fellow viewers - Long Rise is different from “Tall.” Tall is about the outseam (ie how long the pants are overall), whereas Long Rise is about the inseam (ie how much room there is from the crotch to your belt line). I have to have Long Rise or my stomach hangs over my belt line. No good. I’d be screwed without Lands’ End.
I also have been wearing Lands End "Long Rise" pants for years. Great for covering that spare tire!
High rise pants with suspenders covered by a matching waistcoat. And patterns with a vertical stripe.
This really helped me out Antonio. I’m actually in the transition in clothing right now but for sure it is about dressing smart that compliments and not to distract or focus on my size.
Lol fr I used to buy jeans oversized forever but I’ve finally got my right size now
I recommend
GH Bass for shirts
Britches for pants
And for suits that are affordable and fitting Alain depetit
But off course most clothes should go to the tailor maybe for minor procedures to fit perfectly
Great video I’m also a big guy. I work as a security guard and I make sure my uniform is neatly pressed & clean and I go for my haircut every two weeks. As a result I’ve worked in a upscale residential buildings, office buildings and 5 star resorts.
Because of my need appearance i’ve never been out of work not even during this pandemic.
By the way I shop at DXL here in Tampa Florida. They are great they have a lot of selections for big guys both in store and online.
Nice vid, some helpful comments too! Trying to help my boyfriend revamp his style a little (at his request.) Lots of good points here to keep in mind!
Glad I found this, even if it's an older video. 6 foot and just lost some weight 315 -> 268.
Saw a picture of myself today with the smaller sized jeans I just bought, and they were hanging so far down my backside, I couldn't believe it. Just bought some suspenders and the next size down on the waistline.
Progress babyyy!! Keep it up!
@@laizywaizy5776 258 as of today..lol. Appreciate it.
I like this one.
I go to the gym. My husband doesn't. And we often go out but he sometimes feel like he doesn't look good. His size, i do not mind at all. He is the most handsome and hottest man I know. But doesn't think the same. So I help him in choosing his clothes especially when we're dining out and shower him with lots of compliments. Which I saw, worked boost his confidence. So thanks for thia video. It's great of a help cause I ran out of ideas. 😁
Thank you, Antonio. As a big man of 5'8 and 330 lbs I understand how to be Large and In Charge. I agree with all your tips. Especially on the pants, suspenders, beards and hats. For big men its the accessories that make all the difference. You have to step it up that extra level of style. When I'm at an event or mixer with all suits, I'm the only one with a boutonniere and a Homburg or Bowler hat, or a waistcoat and pocket-watch and chain. I'm a big man and commonly the best dressed at the party, and you better know I stand out as not a fat guy, but a Big Man living large! Its the most important thing you said: ITS ALL ABOUT CONFIDENCE! Simply because you are a big man doesn't mean you cant be charming, charismatic,commanding, and yes even sexy. NEVER HIDE! STAND OUT AND BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE! DEMAND RESPECT IN YOUR SPEECH, DRESS, AND BODY LANGUAGE! Make your affect a gentlemanly but powerful personality. You have to walk into a room like YOU ARE King Pin and back up that sharp look with confidence and refinement. You are big, not a medieval leper outcast. You can have women, money, success and fame the same as any other man of any size if you want it, work for it, and believe in yourself.
Great video!!! I usually go to casual male XL for my clothes mainly because I’ve been a BIG guy all my life and also that’s been a personal goal for myself to be well groomed and not sloppy and well dressed
Does this apply to "big" teenagers as well?
Thanks bro♥️
Much needed video👍🏻
Antonio, that green tie is fresh!
I usually buy brooks brother, John Langford, Arrow for shirts and trousers and all of my suits/blazers and jeans are all tailored
A lot of these tips may work for a Man in the office. What about those of us who work on the production side, the dirtier side of life? Or those of us who work from check to check?
dogmaticlord you can practice when your not at work and out with friends and family.
Additionally, try looking at thrift stores, these were a great for me when I was in college. It’s hit and miss on good items but you’ll still find something about 60% of the time and easy on the wallet. And even though you work from check to check save up and find a tailor. They can do pretty cheap alterations depending on alter (tapering sleeves and taking in the waist being common).
Hope this helps!
Can you please do an episode specifically on short men with bellies? This is all we are in louisiana lol
I'm seeing a lot of comments that don't list stores for bigger guys to shop at. Was hoping to find something, but guess it's like shopping at a regular store.
There are stores for "big and large" men, use Google to find one in your location.
Check out this list from Dmarge - www.dmarge.com/2019/05/stylish-clothes-big-guys.html#gsi7
Here in Canada, Daniel Hechter is a great brand for the larger gentlemen who wants to look stylish.
I've bought a sport jacket, a number of long sleeve sport shirts and two coats from them thus far.
Great video Antonio!
2.15 mark......always a sports jacket 😉
Another great vidio Antonio👍
I am a big guy. I struggled with finding clothes that fit me. And forget about trying to find my size in the stores on a constant basis. I found a company that focus on big guys. They are more for us blue colar than white colar. Duluth Trading Company. Now, they have casual clothing more for guys who spend time in the office, but needs to be able to hold up to the trip out to the field. I have been wearing there clothes in a machine shop for years and they hold up very well. I do suggest going to a store, even if it's a 3 hr haul like mine, and try on EVERYTHING. Bring a note pad and write down all the styles and sizes that fit. This way you can reorder online and it will fit just right. Case in point, I wear a 2XL t-shirt, XL tall button shirt and jacket, and a XL sweater. Just because many guys I work with wears t-shirts dosen't mean that I can't up my style, especially since I have been there the longest, and wear a solid color button up shirt with my jeans.
Love your channel you articulate details always informative keep up the great work
This my dude yo , he’s like the godmother for us men 😂
I appreciate the great tips. I was a little taken back when you referred to dressing comfy to sloppiness but I see your point. I don't live a lifestyle to warrant suits ties and all that. I would like to elevate my style and find a happy medium between the two extremes. Wish me luck and drop some tips or links if you have. God bless Sir. I can see you're passionate about helping your fellow man be their best.
Good on you for making that decision. As a woman married to a tradesman who's transitioned from baggy jeans, t-shirts and sneakers to a more dapper version of himself, I can second Antonio's recommendation to do it gradually and learn along the way. Maybe start off with a pair of dark jeans and t-shirt that fit well and add a leather jacket. Get a long sleeved, linen shirt that monochromatically matches your pants and roll the sleeves up below the elbow for a dressier but still relaxed look. Swap out sport shoes for something in leather, perhaps an elastic-gusset dress shoe until you're comfortable to transition to lace-ups. And yes, definitely keep your head and facial hair looking sharp at a really good barber.
Any good brand recommendations for large men??
I am in India🇮🇳🇮🇳!!
As a large man, with an even larger head, finding off-the-rack that (mostly) fits is definitely a challenge. Because of my 18 1/2-inch neck, I have to buy slim-fit shirts so they don't fit like circus tents. And as I have aged, my shape, and therefore suit size, has changed. Ten years ago, I was just stepping up from 42 long to 44 long. Now I'm in a 46 regular as my arms haven't grown, but other areas have. As for suspenders, I love them, but for us with a little extra around the middle, it becomes an issue with top part of the waistband folding forward, since there's no belt to hold it in place.
And yeah, the lightly-tapered goatee elongates my face and helps disguise my weak chin.
You better show them rolls! I love them!
I have been following for years after my son and just not paying attention I put on the weight. This is amazing video on my transition back to normal weight. Thanks again!
Really great video, very informative.
I don’t know why, but large men look particularly good in tucked dress shirts. Due to their big size the clothing is seamless with their body. Since I’m rather slim it looks weird when I wear tucked dress shirts.
Thank you for this video, my fiance is a big guy and I've watched so many videos that made no sense to me. Thank you for helping me learn how to dress my man.
LoL ..the kingpin is the look I'm going for with my husband. He has big shoulders , but I like lighter color to make him look nice or less scary and dark for a power move.
Good video, I'm a big guy and I utilize alot of these tips. I'm not a big one wearing suspenders, I prefer belts. I order clothes from King Size and shop at the local DXL clothing store.
I wish you had used large men as models instead of skinny men. It would have been nice to see what you were talking about in action on a large man.
Exactly
Top vid Antonio 👍
Best video Ive seen in a long time
DXL is always a safe choice for big guys
I am large and short. I hate the fact that I can buy a cheap pair of pants, but then have to pay $28 more just to get them hemmed. Same with suit jackets and the like. Don;t even get me started on jeans. I wish they made hems shorter than 29. 25-27 would be absolutely ideal.
Last week i bought a coat, the day after i bought a flat cap because something was missing
It's about time.thank you.
Pants keep sliding off my rear. Yea suspenders work with a suit but not jeans or khakis What can I do?
High waisted pants are your friend here and suspenders too. Belts will not be ideal and no means of pants management isn't good either. High waisted pants are fantastic though. As a tall fat dude, it is a real life changer.
If your outer shirt is untucked, just wear suspenders between undershirt and outer shirt.
Only wear t-shirts? Stop wearing underwear as outerwear.
There's also casual suspenders with patterns and stuff; those might work.
I got the answer for you, my friend. Get a pair of Perry Belt-clip suspenders. They have plastic hooks that hook under your belt. So when wearing jeans wear the suspenders underneath against your skin and the t-shirt over top. Nobody will even see them. Keeps your pants up on your waist, makes your pant leg fall correctly and looks so much better. Ive done it for years. The suspenders dont chafe me, but if they do so to you then wear a white undershirt. Another hack hint: though you shouldn't wear a belt with a suit, if you wear a waist coat, get it with a slightly longer length, then you can wear the perry belt clip with the belt under the vest and nobody can see it. I do this all the time. Little cheat when you don't feel like taking all your pants to the tailor to put buttons on the inside for the traditional suspenders.
My biggest problem buying clothes the Stores mostly stops at 2XL or 3XL
Would you recommend Men's Wearhouse they are the closest thing to a men's store that is close to me?
Great video. Thanks for thinking of the big guys. DXL is a good option and also Mens Warehouse for some items.
I'm 6'3", 300 pounds and have a high protein diet, and a pretty active lifestyle. My thighs are MASSIVE thanks to my work, and hobbies my thighs just became huge and even disproportionate. My issue is finding jeans that fit my thighs and my waiste. It's impossible. I've been looking for years and keep coming up with nothing but baggy flowy hiking pants. I'm a hiker but I want to look nice on the side and it is SO hard. I wish I wasnt so large 😂
Athletic fit jeans are your friend. They specifically have extra room in the thighs and butt. I'm a dancer myself so I have really muscular thighs as well. A lot of high fashion places don't sell them, but they do at Old Navy, Walmart, etc.
As someone who lost a ton (100 lbs) but is still technically overweight and needs to lose more, this video is basically a list of things I do wrong on a daily basis, ha ha. I have sooo many pants with frayed legs and I look like I'm wearing a bag (made worse because I couldn't keep buying new clothes as I lost weight due to cost and now my clothes are easily four or five waist sizes too small). I wish tailoring was more common and less expensive. I have a suit tailor, but a suit isn't appropriate for a casual date or hanging out with my buddies in a social setting.
Watching few hours before the interview haha
I'm fat but losing weight i lost 4 kg(8pound if you are from usa) but the thing is I cannot stay on the diet for a long time if I could I would have lost somewhere around 6 7 kg but until then I will follow this video
When I buy a suit, as a big guy, do I measure my chest or my belly to figure out what will have the best fit before I get it tailored?
Sorry but you were off quite a bit about monochromatic. It means one color throughout the outfit. Black suit with black shirt and tie, the same in all white, blue pants with a blue shirt and blue cardigan, etc. Mono = one, chromatic = color. The two examples you showed were not monochromatic. Otherwise, another excellent video.
Great video as always!
Can you do a video on where your pant should sit on your waist?
I see a lot of bigger guys wear their pants low.
Is this the new norm?
Love this shirt tie cardigan combo! Stealing this look :)
Really great advice, inspirational. Thanks so much for these excellent tips!
Im puertorican. I was wondering does this work for my daily cultural activities and retain the texture for my size
