LONG SLIM TOPS
How should tops fit tall guys?
If you’re tall, you already stand out enough. You don’t need your clothes shouting about it too. We’re all about tall guys fitting in, not sticking out.
Perfect tall tops have four main features:
- They should fit neatly across your chest and shoulders, flattering your slim torso. When you pinch the fabric, there should only be 1-1.5" spare around the chest, not half a handful.
- They should be cut straight or nearly straight through the waist. That adds a touch of width if you’re super skinny and hides the belly nicely if you’re “skinny fat.”
- The sleeves should gently hug your upper arms around the mid-bicep, making them look a bit bigger than they actually are. You should only be able to pinch 0.5-1" of fabric; any more and it’s gym membership time.
- The length should fall to mid-fly. It shortens the look of your legs slightly and balances your tall frame perfectly.
None of this is rocket science for tall specialists like us. We’ve suffered through enough badly cut menswear to know exactly what you’re up against.
How much longer are they?
They're 3" longer than regular sizes so they'll fall to your mid-fly (or a little lower). They're long enough to tuck in without worrying about them coming loose. And long enough to raise your arms without exposing your stomach and back.
And don't worry, they're not super longline (5-8" longer) so they won't wear like a dress.
Are you sure they're not baggy?
We've never had anyone complain about our tops being too baggy. Too long maybe, but definitely not too baggy. Our tops are simply longer than standard sizes, without the extra width. So you'll never have to size up like you do with short guy brands just to get the length you want.
If you're unlucky and the top runs big, you just need to size down. We offer free exchanges on all our orders.

Why are your tops quite pricey?
You really only get what you pay for. You'll still be wearing our gear in a year or more from now. Our sizing is consistent, our stitching is high quality, and our fabric is soft and anti-allergenic.
Finally, we are a slow fashion brand. We only order in limited quantities. This means our cost price is higher, but we guarantee to move all our stock. This is unlike many huge fast fashion brands that over-order to get the biggest factory discounts. Sometimes their unsold deadstock ends up at landfills or incinerated. Not the sort of brand you want to be supporting.
What fabric are they made out of?
100% organic cotton. So you won't experience itchy bobbles that come with poor quality cotton - polyester blends. Our fabric is pretreated at the factory for extra softness and prewashed to minimize shrinkage to only 1-2%.
The higher quality 5.60 oz/yd² combed cotton helps the t-shirts to retain their shape wash after wash, and it drapes well on slender frames.
How much do they shrink?
All our items are already pre-shrunk and pre-washed at the factory, so they won't shrink on a 80°F wash. That means you don't need to size up to factor in shrinkage - they're true to size.
Why is your range quite limited?
Because we focus on getting the fit right, not flooding your closet. Every tall slim guy knows it’s hard enough to find one brand that not only nails the length but also the sleeves. We perfect the essentials: tees, hoodies, polos, and sweatshirts made for guys 6'2"+.
We’re slow fashion, not fast fashion. Fewer styles, better fits, and no wasted stock heading to landfills.
