Top Style Tips for Tall Men - How to measure & What to wear

Step 1: How To Measure yourself for Tall Men's Clothes

Finding your perfect FIT is easy- just find an inexpensive, soft tape measure and get to work! Don't own one?  Click the above link- we offer them right online at FORtheFIT.

Neck Measurement:

Finding your collar size is easy! First, with a soft tape measure, either 1) measure around the base of your neck, or 2) measure the collar on your favorite shirt.  If you are measuring from a shirt, you will start from the center of the collar button and run the tape to the far end of the button hole. The resulting measurement is your collar size.

If you intend to wear the shirt with a tie, the size you select should closely match your exact collar measurement. However, shirts you intend to wear without a tie may be purchased slightly larger at the neck.  The larger neck offers comfort and a more casual look.

Chest Measurement:

To measure your chest, first relax your arms at your sides. Then, measure around the fullest part of your chest,  keeping the tape measure under the armpits. This is your chest size.

If you're shopping for a jacket or sports coat, in addition to considering your chest, you will want to ensure comfort and a better fit in the upper arms and shoulders.  Therefore, in addition to the chest measurement above, you will also want to know your overarm measurement.  First, measure around your chest and arms (at the highest point of your shoulder blades). This is your overarm measurement.  Next, subtract your chest measurement from your overarm measurement.  If the difference is 7 or more inches, then we recommend ordering one size larger through the chest, so you can comfortably move your arms and shoulders in the jacket.

Sleeve Measurements (Arms):

To find what sleeve length to order, start by bending your elbow 90 degrees and placing your hand on your hip.  Next, hold the tape at the center back of your neck. Last, measure across your shoulder to your elbow, and down to your wrist. Voila! You've just calculated your sleeve length.

Waist Size Measurements:

Figuring out what waist size  to order for pants is simple.  First, grab that soft tape measure.  Second, measure loosely around your natural waistline. Third, don't forget to breathe. Remember: if you hold the tape measure too tightly, you may pop a button the next time you take a deep breath or eat a sandwich! If you're in-between sizes, consider a self-sizer waisted pant (learn more about those here)

Here's how NOT to measure.  First, do NOT simply go by the stated or label size on your favorite pants. Second, do not simply measure the waistband on the garment itself.  That's because depending on the intended rise of that item (ie. whether it's supposed to sit AT or BELOW your waist), and also how it actually fits on you (ie whether you are wearing it as intended), the resulting numbers may have no relevance to your actual waist size. Instead, simply measure your waist itself.

Rise and Inseam: Measuring for Pants

Pant Length / Inseam:    

Inseam is the measurement of your pants length from the crotch seam to the bottom hem.  A professional tailor can take this measure for you. But, if you're more comfortable, you can easily find this measurement at home.  First, identify which of your existing pants fits you best.  Next, fold that pair in half-lengthwise and lay on a flat surface (a bed, table or the floor will work). Then, measure from the crotch seam (where all the fabric meets) and straight down the pant leg all the way to the bottom. This is your inseam. Wish your favorite pair were just an inch longer? Cool beans! Just add an inch to the number.

Trouser Rise:

The rise on your pants refers to the distance from crotch to waist. Simply fold your pants in half lengthwise, and along the front of the pant, measure from the crotch seam to the top of the waistband to find the front rise.  Rise is important because it determines where the pants sit on your body.  First, rise is most commonly used to describe whether the pants are supposed to sit on your body.  For example, low rise pants sit well below your waist, and high-rise just above.  But YOU also have a natural rise - the distance between your crotch and waist, that also needs to be considered.  If you are taller than average, you may have a tall rise.

If you are tall and skinny, you may find yourself buying regular, off the rack pants and wondering why they sit so low on your body.  You may have a tall rise.  If you are much taller than average, you may need to start with pants that feature a tall rise, and THEN shop for your perfect style (ie whether you want a tall/low rise to sit below your waist, or tall/standard rise to sit AT your natural waist).  See our featured Pant Rise Article for more details.
