Tallboys Apparel: Tall Basics
Quality menswear for the vertically gifted.
Tallboys Apparel brings you their latest range of quality tall menswear. Pre-order now and save big on tall basics including tees, sweaters, hoodies, short sleeves and button downs.
As a tall boy (6’3), finding clothes that fit is an ongoing problem. Tees are always too short, shirts are often too baggy and sleeves are never long enough.
In 2013 I launched ‘Tallboys Apparel’ with the aim of filling this void in the market and I developed my first product, the ‘Tallboy Tee’. The t-shirt was longer in length, had a fitted chest and slim sleeves. A product that vertically gifted men across the globe now know and love because of its great fit and make quality.
This year I want to bring you more Tallboys gear! I’ve worked with some incredibly talented people to re-imagine a selection of wardrobe essentials, based on the reviews and feedback I’ve received over the years. With no compromise on fabric or make quality, each piece is designed to last so you can feel comfortable, stand tall and look great.
In order to manufacture the complete range of styles and colors, I’m going to need your help. With your pre-orders, we can reach the manufacturer minimums and make the Tall Basics range a reality. In return for your support, I am offering exclusive discounts on the entire collection.
A big thank you to everyone that has supported Tallboys over the years. I couldn’t have got this far without you.
Wardrobe essentials for the vertically gifted.
Available in Crew and V-Neck
The original Tallboy Tee offers the best fit for the tall man. Unlike regular T-shirts that are usually too short or too wide, they are specifically designed to complement a tall frame and encourage great posture. With long wear in mind, they are made with comfort stretch fabric designed to maintain shape wash after wash.
Fit
Made with extra body length, you can say goodbye to the awkward exposure of the male midriff for good. They also feature slim sleeves and a fitted chest, to keep you looking proportioned.
Fabric
The cotton fabric contains a small amount of spandex providing a ‘comfort stretch’. This allows for a slim fit design with an unrestricted range of motion and avoids stretching out of shape after repetitive use and washing.
Design
Tallboy Tees are not only designed to fit, but complement a taller frame. The unique shape creates a proportioned look so you can feel comfortable, stand tall and look great.
Tallboy Sweaters are specifically designed for a tall physique and built to last. The fabric is thick, soft and treated so it won’t pill. Each section is tailored and shaped to fit in a way that feels comfortable and encourages great posture. With no visible branding, they layer well with jackets and coats.
Fit
Featuring longer length and longer sleeves, we just dare you to try and shrink this bad boy in the wash. The crew neck collar is made from durable rib fabric that will maintain shape after extensive use. The sleeves are slim fitting and comfortably hug the arms.
Fabric
We take durability seriously. Tallboy Hoodies and Sweaters are made with anti-pilling treated fabric. ‘Pilling’ is the formation of small balls of fibers that can gather on the surface after extensive use and washing. This treatment stops this from ever happening so your hoodie stays looking fresh wash after wash.
Design
The body length and neck opening are designed to pair seamlessly with a Tallboy Tee and the upper back panel is doubled to square off the shoulders. Free of any visible branding, they also layer well with coats and jackets.
Tallboy Hoodies are specifically designed for a tall physique and built to last. The fabric is thick, soft and anti-pill treated.

Fit
Say goodbye to ill-fitting shirts designed for the masses. Tallboy Short Sleeves are specifically designed for tall men. We take a different approach to design to create a look that complements a taller frame. The longer length and tall collar create a proportioned look. Sizes come in both slim and regular, because there’s no such thing as one size fits tall. We want you to feel comfortable, stand tall and look great!
Fabric
Our shirts are made with pre-shrunk cotton so you don’t get a nasty surprise after you wash it.

“Great tees:These are fantastic, super long just as described and the quality is all there. Would be great to see long sleeves (with extra length in the sleeves), more colours, maybe henleys or something. Looking forward to seeing what you guys produce in the future and a big thanks from Australia!”
– Jordan W.
“Perfect for ladies, too: Finally found a slim tee with length! Great fit and super comfy. I’m 5’8″ and the XS is perfect. For a baggier fit, I’d go up a size.”
– Julia W.
“Certified dope: Love the Tallboys gear. I’m 6’9″ with a muscle build. I like shirts that are a bit on the tight side so I went with a large button down. Fits perfectly!”
– Gregory G.

– Andrew L.
“Perfect fit: Like the title states. I’m 6’6 about 195lbs and the large shirts fit perfect. Typically I’d wear an extra large shirt and It would be still to short and to wide. The tallboy t in large is nice and fitted and a perfect length.”
– Dean C.
“Glad I found Tallboys: I’m looking forward to my son’s reaction to getting tshirts that actually will let him raise his arms without baring his belly button! That will fit him properly as opposed to an extra large tent. Also, I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with for styles. Thanks Tallboys!”
– Gavina L.

We’ve been delivering to customers for over 3 years now, manufactured 6 times and now stock in the US, Canada and Australia to deliver faster than ever.
Timely order fulfillment is a huge priority. Our manufacturer is ready to start production as soon as we reach our goal. With freight and fulfillment already organised, items will start to ship in December. Unfortunately we can’t guarantee the items to arrive before Christmas but if you are buying it as a gift for that tall friend/family member, we can provide you with a voucher which is redeemable on the website for their choice of color and style.
Delays can happen from time to time. If for any reason there are hiccups with the production or delivery, you will be the first know. As a pledger, you can expect frequent updates regarding the campaign and our progress.
Why not order one for a tall friend or family member. If you’re not sure what they would like or what size they are, each perk is redeemable as a voucher that make for great gift cards.
You can still help! A simple share on facebook, shout out on twitter or post on instagram can make a world of difference. Why not tag the tallest person you know? #TallBasics
Why do you need to run an Indiegogo campaign to launch?
Tallboys has grown slowly and steadily since 2013. This year we’re offering a larger range of styles and colors, however it is simply more than we can afford to produce. We need to lock in a number of pre-orders to cover manufacturer minimums. In return for your support we are offering exclusive discounts on the entire range.
What happens if the goal is not reached?
If the full goal amount is not reached, production will still go ahead, however some styles and colors may not be available. Conversely, if the goal amount is exceeded, new styles and colors may become available.
How do I choose my color and size?
Once you have claimed your perk, you will be issued a unique coupon code redeemable at our website www.TallboysApparel.com. Simply place your desired items in to your cart and enter in your coupon code at checkout to redeem your perk. Your coupon code will never expire and you may place your order at any time.
Will it fit me?
We’ve provided added sizing and dimension information so you can be sure of your fit before ordering. If you find you ordered the wrong size by accident, we’re happy to exchange anything for a different size, but unfortunately we cannot offer a refund for a fitting issue. So please review the sizing and dimensions carefully and feel free to contact us if you need some help!
Where is the clothing made?
The Tall Basics range will be produced by an industry leading manufacturer in Shanghai. We know what you’re thinking, China means poor quality. On the contrary – it may have been the case 20 years ago, however as the industry’s quality brands have moved their production off-shore, the demand for quality production has had to be met. Our manufacturer is managed by an Australian based business and is very experienced in producing premium menswear, with quality that speaks for itself.
Where will your clothing ship from?
We have distribution centers in the United States, Canada and Australia. The stock will be delivered directly to the distribution center from our manufacturer. Your order will then be immediately processed and delivered to your designated address. We ship worldwide (every country) from our distribution center closest to you.
When will I get my order?
Pre-orders are scheduled to ship mid-late December from their respective distribution centers (USA, Canada, Australia). Exact delivery times will vary depending on your location. We will keep you updated on the production and delivery of your order and you will be the first to know if there are any delays.
Will this arrive in time for Christmas?
We can’t guarantee delivery before Christmas but perks are redeemable as coupons on the website. We’re happy to send you a gift card to give to your loved one on Christmas Day. This makes for a great gift as they can choose their preferred color and style.
