Mugsy Jeans Makes Pants that Will Fit Any Size of Man, from Big to Thin, Tall to Small

If you’re a big guy with a big ass and a set of tree-trunk thighs, it can be difficult to find pants that fit just right, or at all.

Skinny and straight-leg jeans are stylish, but they don’t fit around the thighs like they should. Relaxed, baggy fits are suitable for the waist but are admittedly quite the eyesore. So, what’s a bigger guy supposed to do? Well, Chicago-based Mugsy Jeans has curated a pant design that is both comfortable and stylish for almost any size.

Mugsy Jeans was created with one goal in mind: to build a pair of chic pants with fabric that can be worn by skinny men, athletic men, and bulky men alike. Built true to size, the fibers spun into Mugsy’s denim jeans flaunt a flexible, stretchy feel and are made out of synthetic silk and T400 denim technology.

The result? A great balance of lasting durability, a fashion-forward appearance, and unparalleled comfort in the places you need it most.

We at The Manual were lucky enough to have a pair sent to us for testing and they provide exactly what was promised. Not only are Mugsy Jeans some of the most comfortable we’ve ever pulled over our ankles, but the fabric is also flexible, soft, and boasts a surprising amount of hug around your legs. This form-fitting design supplies the stylish straight-leg look that gives you the thinner, more streamlined profile you desire. And the jeans work for any kind of occasion, whether you’re dressing up for a business conference or dressing down for a casual day out at the ballpark.

Mugsy Jeans makes more than just jeans, too. It curates an assembly of chino pants and shorts with the same mindset to give you more options in your wardrobe for warmer weather.

Here are some of our favorite styles from the greater Mugsy Jeans collection.

Black jeans are a quintessential piece in every man’s closet because of their versatile compatibility with multiple colors and styles. Mugsy Jeans’ squid-ink black comes in a true, dark black monochromatic silhouette and that coveted stretch fit to fit any body type. The company also offers this comfortable fit in a variety of colorways, from different shades of gray to dark and light blue hues.

Our favorite color for chino pants is the classic khaki colorway. This lightweight silhouette gives you flexibility when picking shoes and shirts to go with it, as well as supreme comfort and a flexible chino fabric fit. The Mugsy Jeans chino pants are comfortable enough for a casual outing and dressy enough to wear to work.

You can go in many different directions when picking out a pair of shorts. Sometimes you need to add more color to your summer wardrobe and sometimes you just want a pair of shorts you can wear out any day of the week. For consistency, we’re going to stay with the versatile picks and opt for the limited edition Skyline colorway. Boasting a faint, light blue silhouette, the Skyline shorts sport the same flexible chino fabric as the pants noted above, which makes for an extremely comfortable and breathable fit for warm weather.

Well, what are you waiting for? Grab yourself a pair of trousers with the right fit without sacrificing any style. If you’re looking for more pants options, check out our roundup of the best jeans on the market.

What exactly are limited edition watches?
Know the buzz word before you buy
Citizen watch in ground beans

Have you ever watched a movie and wondered why the rare piece of art could ever be worth the obscene amount of money the debonair art thief claims it's worth? It is simple, really. It comes down to the fact that it is rare. A truly original piece of art masterfully created by the very hand who conjured it up in their mind is something that cannot be recreated. The same kind of rare value exists in the watch world, too. There is an entire industry of limited edition watches that claim rarity rivaled only by the masterful artwork of Renaissance artists who can no longer create original pieces.

But what does it really mean to say that a watch is a limited edition? Does it truly mean that there is little chance of you walking into a party or a bar and running into the ever-embarrassing moment when your "rare" watch sits on the wrist of another...in the same room? Or does it mean they just want you to buy it quickly because they have numbers to make before the shareholders' meeting? Both are possible. As usual here at The Manual, we did the legwork to make sure are armed with the information you need before you click the BUY button and invest in a limited edition watch.

A day at the races: How to dress for the Kentucky Derby
Let your colors and patterns fly at the Kentucky Derby
Men's Derby Fashion with Bowties

Thanks in no small part to social media, The Kentucky Derby has become more than a horse race, becoming a major annual fashion event. Horse races have historically been social events that encouraged spectators to dawn their most spectacular finery going back to Victorian England. That tradition carried over to the States, and three races of the Triple Crown have been fashion events for America's upper class for well over a century. As a social engagement, the greatest of the three big races is The Kentucky Derby, and the greatest part of the race is the Kentucky Derby outfits. Churchill Downs Racetrack in Louisville, Kentucky, becomes the fashion capital of the South for one weekend every May.

The rise of social media and "fit" culture have led to a boom in Kentucky Derby parties across the country over the past ten years. An event that used to be a niche interest to horse racing and gambling enthusiasts, along with the few people wealthy enough to attend the event, has become a national fashion event. People who have no interest in horse racing and will probably not even watch the race (there are a number of races happening all day, culminating in the actual headline race) gather together over their shared love of dressing up and partying. It has become an occasion to be seen, both #IRL and on every social media platform.
