Fat Man? Don’t Dress Like This, Please?

If you are a big guy (fat, portly, pudgy… whatever) please DO NOT dress like this.  You are living up to the stereotype that ALL BIG guys are slobs.  We are NOT.  Some of us do dress very well and spend quite a bit of money to ensure we do look good.  You don’t have to spend a fortune to dress well even if you are overweight (but you can).  As I mentioned in my post of a few days ago about how should overweight men dress, I always look for sales and also rely on the Internet for shopping for clothes – there are always GREAT deals available on-line from reputable retailers.

It starts at the little things – like personal hygiene (question – do you have MORE than 1 or 2 pairs of underwear?) to how you groom yourself (big guys that keep those scraggy, unkept beards look really bad).

If your belt is worn badly, BUY a new belt!  Pants don’t fit quite right?  Buy new pants.  Stomach overhangs over your pants – buy looser fitting pants.  Don’t wear skin tight shirts because that’s all you have – you look bad and NOBODY wants to see every bulge on your body.  Uggggh…

I was in LA recently on a mini-vacation, and stopped by one of the outlet locations and went shopping at Casual Male XL-why be average when you can XL? – if you are in the US or close to a border crossing (and live in Canada) you should check them out.  There are a few places in Canada that do sell XL clothing, but you should add Casual Male XL to the list.  Good clothes and GREAT prices!

When I was there I picked up some great shoes, Polo Ralph Lauren spring jacket in addition to a belt, a couple of pairs of great pants and two shirts.  I spent less than $300.00 US for some great fitting clothes which are some of the latest styles.

I did talk about some Fashion Tips for Overweight Men just a few days ago, read it.  Please.

Here is to your health!
