The Slim Fit: Plus 2

April 12, 2016

Tall and slim? Having difficulty finding casual shirts that fit your slender frame?

You’re in luck. Introducing Plus 2 Clothing, an Australian based clothing company specializing in long tees and shirts, created with the slim Mr. TALL in mind.

The Story:
Plus 2 Clothing was created by tall and slender Australians, Steve Rogers (6’6”) and Josh Gaskin (6’3”) who met while in Cambodia. During their encounter the conversation quickly turned to the struggles of finding clothing that fit their slim and tall frames. Upon returning to Australia, Steve and Josh decided to create a solution for themselves and other tall, slim men.

So what’s with the name? When ordering clothing, especially athletic attire, you often have the option to add length, ‘2 or more (plus)’ inches.

Plus 2 Clothing primarily targets tall men in their 20’s-30’s. However, men and women of all heights are welcomed to shop the brand. Quality casual clothing, proper fit for talls, street style and affordable clothing is what the brand is all about. Tees, hoodies and headwear range in price from $24.95 to $79.95.

Plus 2 also rewards you for shopping in bulk; something many of us #talls are familiar with. Whenever I find something that fits me properly I always buy more than one for the fear of not being able to find it again, especially tees and jeans. Plus 2 has great bundle deals. For example, instead of paying $24.95 for one tee you can buy 3 tees for $50. Now that’s a great deal.

The Fit
TALL District Ambassador, Xavier and I enjoyed reviewing Plus 2 clothing for you.

Xavier is 6’5” and slender. I am 6’0” and slender-curvy. lol. Yes, this is a post about mens clothing but I saw potential in a ‘unisex’ item and I’m positive fellow #Tallistas will love this item as well.

At first glance Xavier shook his head and said,  ’this is going to be too big,’  referencing the Plus 2 clothing white tee and short sleeve drop tail hoodie. I knew that it was the right size because the order was based on his measurements, not a guesstimate. I insisted he try it on before making a call on the fit. Let’s just say Xavier was pleasantly surprised with the fit. See why below.

Side ‘Size’ Bar:
Mr. TALLs and Tallistas, it is important to order based on your measurements, not your perceived size. Why? There is no universal measurement associated with sizes small, medium, large, etc. Sizing is based on the fit model chosen by the designer or clothing company. The Fit Guide is truly your friend, especially when ordering from countries outside of your own.

This is how Xavier felt when he tried the Plus 2 clothing tee on for the first time.

Xavier loved the length and the comfort of his new Plus 2 hoodie.

I loved the droptail hoodie as well.

I got the idea to wear the droptail hoodie as a ‘sweater/hoodie dress’ because of the additional length in the back. Tallistas, make sure to order one size larger than your size (select your size based on your measurements). I would have preferred a large for a little extra length. I am pictured wearing a medium.

Outfit Details:
Jacket – Akira, $70 on sale
Socks – American Apparel, Thigh High Socks (in our case over the knee socks), $19.95
Booties – Sam Edelman via Nordstrom Rack (purchased during the winter)

Xavier and I felt excited and empowered when we wore the Plus 2 droptail hoodie.
