Finding the Perfect Big and Tall Winter Jacket
Can you feel the brisk winter breeze
sneaking into your waistline? How about the cold snow creeping into
your sleeves? Most portly men, or big and tall men struggle to find a
well-fitting winter coat. Luckily, London’s Big and Tall Menswear
is here to help with properly fitting coats and portly mens clothing.
Portly men have unique bodies that can
cause their winter coat to climb and fall short in areas that should
be covered. Here are a few tips to find perfectly fitting portly mens
clothing, specifically, a big and tall winter coat.
Tips for Purchasing a Big and Tall Winter Jacket
- Buttons and zippers should not be stressed: When buying a portly mens coat, one of the largest issues shoppers will find is tight zippers or buttons that leave annoying and cold inviting gaps. This is because the chest and waist of your winter coat is not properly fitted. Knowing your measurements and not settling for a coat that isn’t perfect, will go a long way in keeping annoying winter drafts away from your body. If your buttons and zipper are not flat across your chest and stomach, ask for a different size. At London’s Big and Tall Menswear, we specialize in finding perfectly fitting coats from our wide selection of big, tall, and portly mens clothing.
- Introduce your sleeves to your gloves: Bridging the gap between your sleeves and gloves is vital when it comes to finding the perfect big and tall coat. In fact, your sleeve should slightly overlap your wrist and glove to ensure there is no airflow hitting your wrists. This will also help when you tuck your gloves into your sleeves to shovel snow. Often, portly men, and big and tall men who shop at regular department stores experience a winter wrist chill from overly short sleeves. Again, this comes down to knowing your measurements, and finding a portly mens clothing store with ample selection. Luckily, at London’s Big and Tall Menswear we can help you with both.
- Be prepared to layer: Trying on a big and tall winter coat in the summer often leads to a poor fitting coat in the winter. When you try on your big and tall coat, make sure you layer your clothing. During the winter months, people often wear sweaters, hoodies, or layered business attire which can cause uncomfortable bulk under a poorly fitted coat. When you purchase portly mens clothing for the winter months, layer like you would on the coldest of days. If it still fits, you’ve likely selected the ideal big and tall winter jacket.
- Don’t forget your fashion sense: Keeping warm is priority number one. Looking good while you keep warm however, is a close second. Sure, your worn and tattered lumberjack coat from the 70’s is great for working in the garage, but with the help of London’s Big and Tall clothing store, large and portly men now have the opportunity to combine comfort and style. London’s Big and Tall has a wide variety of fashionable winter coats and big and tall leather jackets. If you would be embarrassed to wear your coat in a business setting, it’s not the coat for you. Choose something multifunctional, well insulated, and stylish.
Bundle up guys, the thermometer is dropping every day, the mornings are brisk and dark, and if you’re wearing an old winter jacket, you’re likely to be feeling a little chilly. If you’re in need of a completely new wardrobe of portly mens clothing this winter season, or you’re just looking for a new big and tall winter jacket, London’s Big and Tall Menswear has what you’re looking for.
