Why is appropriate clothing so important?
For the fashion-conscious man, clothing plays a central role. It should flatter your figure. Don't settle for less. Carefully selected shirts and trousers send important messages to those around you. The well-known saying "clothes make the man" is an integral part of our lives. Well-groomed and well-fitting clothes make you appear trustworthy and earn you likeability. This contributes positively to your social life, both professionally and privately.
Furthermore, well-fitting shirts, blouses, and trousers ensure that you feel comfortable in your clothing and radiate confidence . If something pinches here and there because the shirt is too tight, if you have to tighten your belt to keep your trousers from slipping down, if you have to roll up your trouser legs to avoid tripping, then your clothing undermines your self-confidence and your appearance. With the right measurements, you can choose trousers and shirts that truly fit you.
With so many different options available in stores, often the only choice is to try on different sizes until you find something that fits. That's tiring.
Choosing the right size online becomes even more difficult if you can't be sure the measurements are correct. Many manufacturers have their own size charts on their websites with body measurements in centimeters for comparison, which you can use as a guide. However, it's tedious to have to search for the brand and manufacturer of every shirt just to find a size chart and take your measurements.
Choosing clothing in XXL sizes is particularly challenging. If you take a size 4XL T-shirt from six different manufacturers, the circumference can vary between 120 cm and 160 cm. A difference of 40 cm can make all the difference between a good fit, a loose fit, or an uncomfortably tight one.

How to determine your plus-size size
It's common practice to determine your own measurements directly on your body. You've probably already worked through men's size charts and measured your height, chest circumference, waist circumference, inseam, and more.
For larger men, this can be a disadvantage if the clothing doesn't fit quite right in the end. Therefore, we recommend measuring directly on well-fitting shirts and trousers that you already own. This has two key advantages: you don't need a second person to help you measure, and you can easily take the measurements from your own clothing.
Here's how to determine the circumference of your jeans:
1.
Place the measuring tape on the device while it is closed.
2.
Stretch the waistband as far as it will go and measure the width.
3.
Multiply the measured width by two.
You now have the textile circumference that will lead you to the correct size. Simply compare the calculated measurement with our size charts in the product description and you'll have the right size.
You can use the same method for other trousers, including underwear and swimwear. The inseam can also be determined directly from a well-fitting pair of trousers. Measure along the inseam from the hem to the crotch.
Measuring the circumference of T-shirts, shirts and other tops
To determine the circumference of T-shirts and shirts, proceed as follows:
1.
Lay the shirt or blouse flat on a smooth surface.
2.
Measure from armpit to armpit.
3.
Multiply the measured width by two.
