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.

Newest CAT collaboration collection sells out in first week
It was extremely popular and took no time to sellout
CAT x ASSC feature

CAT is as tough as you are. CAT has something for you, whether you are on a construction site, keeping the streets safe, or doing any other hard work vocation. They are the pinnacle of workwear and combine movability with durability while also never sacrificing what looks excellent as well. Then, some collaborations stand above the rest. Most recently, they collaborated with an MLS star to create a great-looking functional collection. However, the latest collaboration from CAT dropped on December 14th and may be the most popular yet, as it sold out in under a week. While the love for a short-run limited edition keeps these happening regularly, we can't lie and say we wish this one had gone on a little longer. We weren't quick enough, but for CAT x ASSC, it is a good problem to have.
Gone in a heartbeat

What made the collaboration so intriguing is the partly the other half of the creative collective. Anti Social Social Club began just under a decade ago when the founder, Neek Lurk (Andrew Buenaflor), used the creative aspect of the brand as an emotional outlet for his depression. Launching it on Twitter and becoming a viral statement of support for emotional health, the brand blew up and has been enjoyed by celebrities such as Kanye West and BTS. They do a lot of collaborations, so it is no surprise that the combination of their streetwear aesthetics combined with CAT's workwear reputation caused this collection to fly off the shelves. We will have to keep our ears to the ground for more coming down the pipe.
