Looking for an online clothing option with fitted polos and jeans that are more suited for the body of men who workout.

Nothing over the top just something that looks good on a 6 foot tall 200lb frame.

I recently found "athletic taper" fit jeans from Old Navy after years of wearing jeans that are uncomfortable. Highly recommend. I can wear them all day. They have a slight stretch are fitted for people with larger quads and calves.

Sounds like a perfect question for the OT.

Will check it out, thanks.

I wear barbell express which has a pretty good fit, looking to branch out into something new. And Express seems to not have the selection of plain polos that they used to have

Boot Barn baw. If I’m getting fancy, Express, but I’m at my age limit for there now.

I would suggest buying clothes you like and have a tailor alter them. I find it’s cheaper to do that than to but some overpriced “athletic fit” clothing brand.

I second this. I also can recommend the 5 pocket tech pants.

State and Liberty makes athletic fit attire. Haven't tried them but their ads are always popping up on my phone.

I don’t wear anything other than State and Liberty or Mizzen and Main button downs/polos for work or going out. I’ve gotten to the point where I won’t wear anything other than performance/dri-fit fabrics because it’s too fricking hot in La for cotton. I like the fit of State and Liberty better because it is more athletic (and about $30/shirt cheaper), but the fabric with M+M is probably better. Particularly their spinnaker line. Both brands look really nice though. I frequently wear both with suits. S+L will have a more tailored look even when compared to M+M’s slim fit options.

For pants, I’ve tried birddogs, State and Liberty, and Lulu. Favorite for fit and fabric for those is S+L. They’re priced around the same as Lulu at ~$125/pair, but there’s pretty limited colors. Birddogs are the cheapest, but they made a fabric switch about 2 years ago that I didn’t really like.

For jeans, I’m a big fan of Madewell. Like Lulu, they started out as a company for women but have branched into mens in the last few years and their jeans are awesome. I have 3 pairs and love them.

For what you’re looking for, I’d check out S+L for a more tailored look for an athletic build. The company was started by a couple former NFL players that wanted to be able to buy tailored looking clothes off the rack for an athletic body type. They’re not shy about it either because they only have one fit for everything (i.e., there’s no regular, slim fit, extra slim, etc.). I’d try a large or extra large if I were you because I wear a medium and I’m 5’10” and 165-170 pounds normally.

You're not tricking me with that one.

On my body, on Bourbon Street, in the French Quarter in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Lol hustler gave up on me because I kept changing the words unknowingly what he was doing

I was like “you can guess where I bought these shoes?”

Yeah, I can tell you where you got them

“Man, I purchased them in MS somewhere. It’d be hard”

Yeah but I can tell where you got them right now

“I’m not sure how you can tell where I bought them right this second”…..

Blank face…… alright bro you know I’m messing

“No clue what you’re talking about”
