The Heights Gift Guide

The Heights Gift Guide

The holidays are upon us, which means it’s time to get serious about holiday shopping. If you’re like me, I try to avoid the mall at all costs this time of year. No parking spots, long lines, wall-to-wall people…does it get any worse? 

Instead of letting that damper our holiday spirit, we have scoured the web to bring you the first annual Heights Gift Guide and ultimately make online shopping easier for you! 

The Iconic White T-Shirt

The Iconic White T-Shirt

The t-shirt has evolved over the years but one thing has remained true, everyone needs a good, well-fitting white t-shirt in their closet. Enter Scott Warren, 6’7, tall, slim guy who spent his entire life struggling to find clothes that fit his long and lean body type, including the staple tee.

Scott set out to design the best t-shirt on the market for guys 6’3 and taller and through rounds of sampling, custom patterns and a lot of trial and error, the Heights Signature Tall T-Shirt was born, the first product that ultimately launched the Heights Apparel brand.

Four Reasons Why Tall Sizes Matter

We’ve all heard the endless jokes about men and size. Some are funny but some are just lame.  All jokes aside, if you’re a tall, thin guy you know that size does matter and that tall sizes are definitely about more than just making items longer.  If the clothes that you buy don’t fit properly, you’ve wasted your time and your money. We’ve all witnessed or (unfortunately) been that tall guy with the thin frame who looks as though he is being swallowed alive by a shirt that doesn’t fit beyond length.

The Quest For The Best Tall Guy T-shirt [UPDATE]

For many years I complained about brands not making their shirts long enough, or slim enough, or this and that. As I have traveled on my own apparel journey, I have come to find out it is much more difficult. I could even argue, it is especially difficult when designing apparel for tall guys.

How to Dress Well When You’re Tall and Thin

Many tall and skinny guys look like they are swimming in their clothes because they wear clothes too loose for their frame. When you have a certain height, you need to be extra careful about what you choose to dress.
