    Same belly. Better shirt.

    It was never your body, it was the shirt. Every other brand grades a slim pattern up and calls it XXL. Here is what we changed:

    The No-Gape Fit

    Room engineered in at the belly, so the cut holds the front closed and the buttons stay flat when you sit.

    Sharp, not a tent

    Matte fabric, tone-on-tone buttons, no chest pocket. A clean line instead of a potato sack.

    Stays where you put it

    Cut longer in the body, so it stays tucked when you reach up, get in the car or sit through a long meeting.

    Cool when others melt

    Breathable with a touch of stretch, so you stop planning your day around sweat patches.

    It goes where you go.

    We could not find one shirt that did all of this at once, so we built it. Here is how it holds up against a luxury shirt and a classic one.

    "First shirt that closes flat over my belly and stays tucked. I'd stopped believing it existed."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Will it gape at my belly when I sit down?
    +
    No, and that is the whole point of it. On a normal shirt the buttons are carrying weight they were never meant to, because the shirt was never shaped for a belly. The No-Gape Fit puts the room where your body actually is, so the cut holds the front closed, not the thread. Sit, drive, reach across a table, lean back. It stays flat.
    Will it ride up out of my trousers when I reach?
    +
    No. The body is cut longer than a standard shirt, which is the part almost every brand gets wrong. Reach for something on a high shelf, get in the car, sit through a long meeting, and it stays tucked. No bare stomach, no pulling it back down every twenty minutes.
    What size do I take? I usually have to go up one.
    +
    Take your usual size. Sizing up was never the fix, it buys you room at the belly and leaves you with a collar that hangs off you and shoulder seams halfway down your arm. Here the room is already built in where you need it and nowhere else. We go up to 10XL, and every size comes from the same big-body pattern.
    What makes it different from a big and tall shirt?
    +
    Most big and tall shirts are a slim pattern graded up. The label changes, the shape underneath does not, so you get a wider shirt rather than a shirt that fits. We started from a big body, which is why the width sits at the stomach instead of everywhere at once, and why it reads sharp rather than like a tent.
    I am planning to lose weight. Should I wait?
    +
    That is the most common reason men put this off, and it is why a lot of wardrobes are full of shirts nobody wears. You deserve to look right in the body you have today, not the one you are chasing. It is a shirt, not a commitment. Wear it this weekend and see.
    I have never heard of Fat Factory. Why should I trust you?
    +
    Fair. We are two big guys who got tired of the same two options: a tent from the big and tall shop or an XXL from the high street that is still a skinny shirt underneath. So we had it cut properly and we wear it ourselves. Thirty days to try it, full refund, free exchanges. A brand that was not sure of its fit could not offer that.
    What if the size is wrong when it arrives?
    +
    You send it back and it costs you nothing. Free returns and free exchanges, no questions asked, for 30 days. One click, prepaid label. Getting the size right is on us, not on you.
    Will I sweat in it?
    +
    Less than in the shirt you own now. The fabric is breathable with a touch of stretch and it moves air instead of trapping it. No more planning your day around sweat patches, or keeping a jacket on all evening to hide them.
    How do I wash and care for it?
    +
    Machine wash at 30°C, hang to dry, skip the tumble dryer and the fabric softener. That last bit matters more than it sounds: a shirt that shrinks in the body is a shirt that stops staying tucked. Washed this way it keeps its shape and its length wash after wash.
