Size Chart Secrets

If you're used to wearing mens extra large tall size shirts, sweaters, jackets, or tops, you can also comfortably wear most XXL or 2XL items.  Why?  Because the patterns that are used for cutting the extra large tall size clothing are usually the same as the XXL patterns. 

Try this the next time you are in a store that features both tall and XXL clothing -- lay an XLT top or sweater down on a counter, and then lay a similar XXL item on top of it.  Note the width of the garment, the overall length, and the sleeve length.  They will probably be the same.

Why is this? Because XXL people need extra room in the body of the shirt for their chests and stomachs, so the length has to be longer than normal.  And because their arms and shoulders are usually larger, the sleeves are cut longer. 

Ordering online?  No problem -- just check the return policy of the merchant.  And then look for styles in XXL sizes that aren't available in Tall.

Clothing manufacturers save money by combining XLT and XXL sizes together.  And you can expand your wardrobe possibilities by considering XXL sizes.
