Casualwear for Big And Tall Men From Mighty Big Man
- 0 Comments
“No Shrimps Allowed,” that is the tagline on the website for Mighty Big Man clothing. When Doug Hill a representative of the company emailed me I was thinking that I had been lazy in writing about clothes for Big and tall men. He was nice enough to send me a shirt and a pair of jeans which you will see among the pictures. Thanks Doug!
The non-professional pictures are of me. What I liked the most about the jeans is the fit loose which made me feel comfortable. While I am not a shrimp the 2XLT shirt is actually to big for me but I pull my sleeves up all the time so its no big deal for me. My wife who does the majority of shopping for my clothes was very impressed with the look which is a plus considering I know many men that never shop for themselves. I think its a “This is what I think you would look good in” thing. Additionally unless your Big and tall frame is that of a pro athlete it is possible that whatever size you wear in Mighty Big Man Clothing you will need to go down 2 sizes. I normally wear a size 40, Doug sent me a 38 which is still a bit to big. If I put on a size 40 they would have fallen to my knees! Read below to discover a little more about Mighty Big Man Clothing and stay tuned to Full Figure Plus for more goodies from this new merchant looking to clothe Big and tall men.
“We started this line after we were called to Nike to produce warm ups and hoodies for their star athletes. We decided to take what we knew from the “normal SIzed” market and offer it to today’s mighty Big and tall man. We are a crossover company, not urban, not surf, not skate- but a line that all demographics can relate to. One thing to realize- we do not own an infinite amount of any product (when we get “hot items” we can re-order but if they are coming from Asia, it does take a while!!!) so shopping often and buying quickly is a good idea. DENIM is HOT- We will be offering our jean styles in a LOOSE fit (just like a Sean John) and a RELAXED fit (more traditional fitting jean). SO we are very excited about the response we have had from the men who just seem to have been ignored by major brands and major stores. Our commitment is to really get the best merchandise we can into this marketplace at very competitive prices.”
UPDATE
The most neglected, underserviced, ignored consumer in America now has a place to shop for fun, functional, and fashionable clothing. The launch of www.mightybigman.com signals to the forgotten 18-40 yr old Big and tall man that they have to look no further than this new website to satisfy their appetite for the same clothing their “smaller” counterparts are wearing. For the first time, that young mighty big man is not mocked, taunted, and completely forgotten by the brands that only care about and cater to a “normal” sized customer. No, the same great sportswear and active looks that were reserved for a market that had no interest in this burgeoning arena are now at the buying fingertips of the fastest growing apparel buying segment in the world!!!!! We at www.mightybigman.com constantly hear comments from our customers like “Thank you so much, I feel like a teenager again”, or “Man I don’t have to wear the same dumb clothes my Dad wears”!!! Comments that have constantly validated our vision and propelled us to provide the kind of exciting clothing this customer deserves.
www.mightybigman.com is the brainchild of two apparel manufacturing veterans, Doug Hill and Dave Smith. One of their projects involved producing warm up suits and sportswear items for some of the highly visible athletes who were under contract to a very famous sneaker manufacturer in Beaverton Oregon (they will remain nameless!). These athletes would actually show up in Beaverton NOT wearing clothes from this very famous sneaker manufacturer, instead sporting their “favorite sweats”!- At that time we were asked to duplicate these items and place that famous logo on the clothing. We would show the samples to our Big and tall friends who would BEG us to make the same items for them because “there was nothing cool at all for us big guys”!!!! “ We spent months doing our due diligence analyzing the traditional and viral Big and tall marketplace eventually realizing that from a fashion standpoint, this was a barren wasteland. The manufacturing partners we have cultivated over the past 20 years, manufacturers currently producing well know brand merchandise, agreed to provide the same merchandise they produced for labels as a test to validate our idea”, said Hill and Smith.
Over the past 3 months merchandise has been selectively placed in the better retail outlets with resounding acceptance and success. Now with the launch of www.mightybigman.com the distribution of this exciting niche based clothing line is available to everyone. Many of us dream of finding that “hole’ in the retail world, finding that customer whose pent up demand is like a volcano ready to explode with the introduction of products they have been longing for. We look forward to filling that hole with our exciting line of clothing, meeting that pent up demand head on, and earning the loyalty and trust of this consumer. Hey mighty big man, you are home-
