Big Underwear Blog: Featuring Pants Puns & Jokes Below The Belt

Let’s keep this briefThe Big Tee team has been a bit quiet on the blog for a while, haven’t we? Sorry, we’ve been pants keeping you updated but we’ve been very busy behind the scenes and we will reveal more on that in a future blog.

For now, we are going to hang out with you and talk about our 2XL to 8XL underwear for men but because we are Big Tee Shirt, we’ll throw in a few underwear puns and comments and we’ll try and keep them clean (the puns not the pants)  to make things vaguely entertaining. OK… Let’s crack on with a bad joke.

What type of underwear is the best at self-defence?
– Boxers!

We’re Trying To Get  A Rise…

You may not be aware that we stock specialist underwear for the bigger chaps. We do extra-long, high rise boxer shorts that are especially good for customers’ medical conditions such as oedema, bariatric complications and hernias.

… Obviously, that’s no laughing matter but we’ll use our puns on the fly when we get the chance.

So, the higher rise underwear features extra length in the front and back to comfortably fit around your body and provide support. Crafted from a 95% cotton and 5% elastane mix, to allow stretch without irritation.

We take medical conditions very seriously… Certainly more seriously than we take our blogs. And on that note…

What’s a potato’s favourite underwear?
– Wedgies!

Heavy Weight Boxers

Like us, you may be no featherweight champion and may require big men’s boxer shorts. Don’t worry, we’ve covered our asses and have plenty in stock. Men’s designer brands like Kam, Espionage and Cotton Valley are available but we also provide our own with boxers from the Big Tee Shirt brand.

You might like to keep things loose when you hang out with your friends and our boxers are the perfect: Available in sizes 2XL to 8XL, they feature (depending on the brand) either cotton and lycra or cotton and elastane mix to maximise comfort for the maximised man. If you like twins then you won’t be disappointed with our twin packs or if you prefer multiples then the triple packs might be right up your alley.

Either way, we have a big selection of big boxer shorts in a range of colours and styles. Our shelves are absolutely bunged up full of them.

Under Where?

It’s easy to locate the underwear on the Big Tee Shirt website, you just need to select “Clothing” from the menu bar, then “Men’s Underwear” from the drop-down menu.

A Brief History Of Time…

You may want a bit more support from your pants and we can ensure your tackle is clean and tidy (football pun) with our big men’s briefs and plus-sized y-fronts. 

In both cases, you know the drill, there’s a selection of colours and styles in sizes 2XL to 8XL for the bigger man. Multi-packs are also available if you want to save a few quid!

We are starting to run out of puns now and we don’t want to lose our streak but the best underwear puns are the dirty ones.

Do stock camo underwear?
– Yes but you may not be able to see it. They are ideal if you want to go commando.

Recommended Storage Instructions:

We have been asked in the past about the correct way of storing underwear.
– In your drawers

Jokes & Puns Too Awful To Make it to this blog:

Here are a few jokes that were just too awful to include on the blog… But we didn’t want to waste them so we’ll hang them out to dry here:

Scrapped Title: Cheap underwear for tight a***s.

Tag Line: Bring back hanging… Abolish underpants.

What kind of pants do reporters wear?
News briefs

*Lisps* Lets thing a thong *Groan*

Anyone who says they can find better underwear for big men is full of s***.

…On that note, we better toddle off but if you can think of any more pants puns then please do let us know and make us wet ourselves with laughter.

 

 

Christmas Clothing For Big Men… & Puns

 

Yes, it is only November and we know blokes like to leave the shopping to the very last minute but our Christmas clobber will sell out before too long and we don’t want you missing out!

To keep you interested in this blog, we’ve added a number of terrible puns and there will be no prizes whatsoever for anyone who can spot them all… Because our low prices are pthe gift that keeps on giving. Although we may be doing some competitions soon if you’d like that? Let us know!

20% Off All Our Clothes in The Christmas Sale

If you’re reading this in December 2017, stop what you’re doing and head straight over to our website! We’ve currently got a HUGE Christmas sale on men’s clothes in sizes up to 10XL.

‘Twas the sale before Christmas! Big sizes at small prices.

2XL to 8XL Christmas Clothing

Let’s talk about sizes: It’s well known that Christmas is a time for excess. If you are a big bloke already, then the chances are, you’re not going to be any smaller by the New Year. So you are going to need some big Christmas clothing with a bit of give and we have some absolute crackers!

We stock Christmas Clothing in sizes 2XL to 8XL: Proper men’s sizes! If you want a couple of extra minces pies, a beer or eight or even the entire pudding, we have you covered. Literally. We have super Christmas clothing is super sizes. So just relax until you make some New Year’s resolutions and think about buying a size up from your usual so you don’t look a complete turkey!

Christmas Jumpers:

It appears that Christmas jumpers sprout up everywhere these days, for the home, the office or for a night out. They seem to get brighter and wackier every year and we try to keep up demand for the Christmas stock.

We’ve got 2XL to 5XL Christmas jumpers on the Christmas Clobber page, in a selection of designs, from Snowmen images to Rudolph, Santa and more. All with a cheeky, comedy twist to get laughs from friends and loved ones. These make the ideal present and prices start are under £13! So you can wrap up warm, get a laugh and look great at less than the price of a full round at the bar.

Crimbo Shirts and T-Shirts

We’re famed for our big t-shirts and super-sized shirts, so where would we be at Christmas without a nice selection of comedy tees and tasteful (if you like that sort of thing) shirts?

In all cases, we have a cheeky comedy twist. With specially printed shirts, featuring Christmas trees, Santa Claus or snowmen and t-shirts that range from cheeky to quite rude! There are a few good (bad/awful) puns on them as well as some slightly risque jokes and images if you have the (snow) balls to wear them.

They are not for prudes and are sure to get a laugh provided the man wearing them is not a snowflake!

… That pun was awful. Sorry.

 

Socks and Pants!

Lets (Santa) pause for a moment and think about the most popular of Christmas gifts: Socks and underwear. It may always have been a bit of a disappointment to receive these when you were younger but as you get older and bigger, you really appreciate the importance of a good, comfortable set of underwear.

Every man needs a sturdy set of underwear and our Espionage twin pack of Boxers in sizes 2XL to 7XL. Without wanting to sound rude(oplh), they will keep your nutcrackers warm.

Don’t forget about socks either. We’ve got Christmas twin packs with a festive theme for under £8! The perfect gift that will bring a bit of joy no matter what the time of year. You just cannot beat a nice pair of socks… So two pairs would be even better.

 

But Wait, There’s Myrhh!

We’ve saved the best for last!

One of our most popular jumpers is actually part of a set. This jumper and Christmas hat combo will make you look and feel like Saint Nick himself. It’s bright, bold, fun and under £20! What a deal!

We’ve even got some Christmas-themed baggy trouser bottoms that are great for lounging around the house or tearing open pressies in. Supremely comfortable and with enough give to make sure your carol singers don’t burst out at the Christmas dinner table.

Finally, for the ‘Claustrophoic” amongst you, there are all our other clothes. You don’t have to love Christmas to enjoy our XL to 10XL clothing but Yule not want to miss out!

Where To Buy Shorts For Big Men:

 

Here at Big Tee Shirt, we try to vary our blog posts so that they are entertaining and interesting but sometimes we just have to shout about the big mens clothes we’ve got. In this blog we are going to toot our horn and tell you about our shorts for big men … Seeing as we’ve just got a load more stock!

With summer on the way, maybe a holiday or two and hopefully some better weather, it’s time to pack the winter clothes away and fill your drawers with shorts. Perfect for lounging around the home, working out in the garden or chilling by the pool.

As you’d expect, we stock the biggest sizes (Up to 8XL) for men at the lowest online prices. Take a short look at the selection:

 

Plain Shorts

You may be the sort of bloke who does not like to make a big fuss. A bloke who wants to keep things simple. The kind of bloke who cuts his sandwiches straight down the middle instead of diagonally or into little triangles.

Then you are probably the sort of bloke who would like our plain shorts.

Whilst we have shorts that are plain and uncomplicated to look at, they are perfectly made with some special features for the bigger man. For starters, they come in sizes 2XL to 8XL: up to a 62” waist… That waists are elasticated and will have either a belt loop or a drawstring to keep the shorts elevated. We have a selection of colours and styles so to be honest, even our plain shorts are not very plain.

 

Camo & Floral Shorts

If you want to blend in with the background or seek disguise in field full of flowers then both of these styles will (if we are being honest) not work for you at all.

But why should you blend in? You can prepare yourself for the extreme urban environment with camo shorts or sit in a tropical paradise by the pool in some floral shorts.

You wear them where and how you like.

But as always, we provide elasticated waists, bigger sizes up to 62” waists (or 8XL) and extra loose fit for extra comfort in our camo and floral shorts. So don’t be a wilting violet or fade away, grab a pair of these shorts today.

Yep. That rhymed.

Cargo Style Shorts

Cargo shorts are ideal the practical man or the man who carries everything! To be fair, most guys have at least a phone, a wallet and some loose change but all those things have to go somewhere! Cargos are the ideal shorts to store all that stuff. With the extra space due to the pockets at the sides you can carry the the extra bits and bobs you need.

Our cargo shorts are as you’d expect, in bigger sizes 42” to 60” waist and we have a massive selection of styles, from jean cargo shorts to brushed cotton. Most importantly, we have a large selection of them with elasticated waists to keep them upright when you are carry the world in your pockets!

 

Denim Shorts

Jean Shorts or ‘Jorts’ as as popular now as they were back in the 90’s, just so long as you remember the simple rule: avoid double denim.

Unless you want to look like Jean-Claude Van Damme in his going gear then these denim shorts are not to be combined with any other denim.

Is that clear? Avoid double-denim.

OK? Cool.

… Because cool is what you’ll look and feel in our awesome denim shorts. We have a special denim-mix (Look on the website for the secret combination) that means our denim stretches to allow more give and more comfort to the bigger guy. Depending on the shorts you choose, you can have cargo style or regular jean style but with zip fly and a button or draw string.

As always, we stock 2XL to 8XL or up to 62” waist so these shorts are perfect for a big and tall man. Assuming he’s wearing no other denim.

 

Longer Length Shorts

Speaking of the big and tall man, we have longer length shorts for the chap with legs that cross county lines when he sits down.

These come in the shape of ¾ lengths shorts or simply the longer-legged range. You can see them on the website. These are in every kind of style you can imagine: Sports shorts, cargo shorts, plain shorts, draw string etc. We stock them up to 62” waist so it’s not just about the length.

We have flex-waist fit too because we know that it’s not just the tall guy that wants to have the extra length, if you are a big fella, you may want to keep your legs covered or perhaps you simply don’t like to show off your knees.

Our prices start from under twenty quid so you can cover your legs (to below the knees) for less than the price of a round at the bar.

 

Swimming Shorts

Make a big splash.

… That’s what I do in my 6XL swimming shorts: when I break the rules and dive bomb into the pool. Because I’m a maverick.

You can be a maverick too, with our swimming trunks in sizes 2XL to 8XL and you’ll be relieved to hear there is not a budgie smuggler (That’s Australian slang for super-tight Speedo-style swimming keks) in sight.

Along with bigger sized waists, we have a range of designs from fairly plain colours to bright, tropical and even some tartan. You won’t be afraid to dip your toe in the water with these awesome trunks so stock up now and fill your *trunk!

*Holiday suitcase

It’s Getting Hot In Here, So Buy Some New Spring Clothes…

 

Did we just use a song title parody as a blog title? You bet we did.

But we’re in a very good mood and very keen to put a spring in your step now that the weather should be on the turn, the days are getting longer and bank holidays are just around the corner!

It’s time to get yourself outdoors, do a bit of pottering about in the garden… or sitting in the beer garden down the pub and it’s vitally important that you wear the correct attire to do so. Luckily we stock all that good stuff and we have lots of new lines coming through this spring, so why not take a look?

We Love *Short Shorts. (*But Longer Ones Are Better)

You may be a veritable action man or simply a bloke that enjoys a bit of comfort but either way, we can both agree that shorts are ruddy perfect every-day wear. When the weather is hot we live in shorts and to be honest, when it’s only-just warm enough, we live in them anyway.

But as you’d expect, we stock rather special shorts for larger men in waist sizes 44” up to 60” or if you want an elasticated waist we have sizes 2XL to 8XL. Definitely suitable and comfortable for the bigger gent.

  • Longer length legs
  • Cargo Shorts
  • Surfer style shorts
  • Walking Shorts
  • Rugby Shorts
  • Denim Shorts (Jorts or Jean Shorts)
  • Stretch Denim Shorts
  • Floral shorts
  • Plain Shorts
  • Camo Shorts
  • Flexi Waist Shorts
  • Chino Style Shorts
  • Baggy Cargo Shorts
  • Fleece Style Shorts
  • ¾ Length Shorts

 

That’s just what made the short-list *groan*. We literally have shorts for everything. There’s a big selection of big shorts in a variety of colours and styles.

… In short, we have lots of shorts for big blokes.

Let Me See That Thong Tha-Tha-Thong Thong Thong…

Only joking! Even we have a limit.

We may not (thankfully) do thongs but we do a great selection of underwear for big guys. So you can have a bit of support behind the scenes. Prices start at a small package of £6.99 which buys a decent set of pants with enough fabric to keep your modesty under wraps.

Just to clarify: We do not do plus-size thongs for men.

Oh my God That’s Some Funky (T-)Shi(r)t(s)

After spending fifteen minutes trying to think of a song with t-shirt lyrics, I gave up. This title is modified lyrics from the Prodigy. If you can think of relevant t-shirt lyrics, drop a comment and let us know. I can update this bit. 🙂

So… T-shirts! The perfect accompaniment for shorts. Well, it goes without saying that a company with a name like ‘Big Tee Shirt’ sells a lot of actual big t-shirts for larger guys. In fact, we specialise in them.

We stock sizes 2XL to 8XL in a fine selection of styles and colours. Shall we list the styles to make the blog a bit longer? Yes. Yes we should:

  • Plain T Shirts
  • Printed T Shirts
  • Tie Dye T Shirts
  • Extra Long T Shirts
  • Funny T Shirts
  • Branded T Shirts
  • Unbranded T Shirts
  • Biker T Shirts
  • Polo Shirts
  • Political T Shirts
  • Ska T Shirts
  • Sleeveless T Shirts
  • Music T Shirts
  • Northern Souls T Shirts
  • … and Vests

 

Actually we do so many types of extra-sized t shirts that we can’t list them all. There’s at least 7 types of humour in the “Funny T-Shirt” section alone.

The point is, we do big t-shirts to suit every kind of man. Apart from the kind of man who has no sense of style. We apologise… But we can’t help them. Stylish men only.

Is that ‘stylist’?

Probably.

No Jacket Required

With it being BRITISH spring time we realise it may be a tad optimistic when we talk about shorts and t-shirts. Let’s be realistic and talk about waterproof jackets. In fact we do some amazing coats, jackets and waterproofs for the bigger man so why not make a bit of a list?

Are you ready? Go…

  • Denim Hooded jackets
  • Quilted jackets
  • Waterproof coats
  • Windproof coats
  • Fleece jackets
  • Fleece sleeveless
  • Gillets
  • Parka jackets
  • Lined Denim
  • Body Warmers
  • Smart Overcoats
  • Utility Jackets
  • Lightweight Jackets (That can’t hold their drink)
  • Summer Jackets
  • Winter Coats
  • Barber Jackets
  • Outdoors Coats
  • Wool Blend Jackets
  • Camo Jackets
  • Harrington Style Jackets
  • Bomber Jackets
  • Oxford Style Jackets
  • Leather Jackets
  • Waist Coats
  • *Straitjackets

*We lied about the straitjackets

But all other jackets are available in a range of colours and style… and most importantly, in proper man’s sizes of 2XL to 8XL.

Float Like A Butterfly, Spring Like Big Tee

Yes, that made little sense and it’s not a song but we had to end this blog with something, didn’t we?

We’re updating the website almost daily with new stock so please do keep coming back and checking what’s available. We’ll be re-stocking some of the sizes that were not available before and expanding on our ranges. Feel free to message us with any questions, we’ll be glad to help!

 

 

The Brexit Blog: How It Affects Big Tee Shirt

We’ve had a good few customers get in touch and ask how Brexit will affect Big Tee Shirt. Some of the questions we’ve been asked are:

  • Will it mean our prices will go up?
  • Will we stock different items?
  • Will we still stock the same big brands?
  • Will we stock anything at all?
  • Will our sizes change?
  • Will we have some Brexit parody t-shirts?
  • Will we move to Spain?
  • Will we ship to the moon?
  • Will we ever stock thongs?
  • How do we maintain such low prices?

 

The answers in all cases are.. Nothing changes.

We’ll still stock the same great clothing for big and tall men at very reasonable prices. We won’t be moving to Spain. We don’t ship items via rocket ship (they get lost and it’s too expensive), we’ve no idea how we keep our prices so low and we’ll never stock thongs.

We hope that clears up your concerns.

Don’t worry, we’re not going to leave you, in fact we fully intend to remain awesome and if possible, become even more awesome. Why not have a look at our range of mens jeans in waist sizes 40” up to 70” whilst you here but not before we leave you with a little joke:

Q: What happens when a large Yorkshireman sits on a plastic garden chair?

A: … He Brexit.

… I’ll get my coat

Egg-citing Easter Clothing For Big Dudes

 

Here at Big Tee Shirt we celebrate Easter in a big way. Not necessarily because we are religious – but because we are fanatical about good food and good times with loved ones. And such occasions are the perfect ‘egg-cuse’ to update your wardrobe…  Sunday marks the beginning of Spring and that means Easter is on the way so you need to be prepared.

Eggs-tra Stretchy Jeans


It is also a time when we can stuff our face… guilt free.

That’s right, the only thing I’m giving up for Lent this year is non elasticated trousers. I want to make room for the abundance of chocolate eggs and roast dinners that come my way. Not to mention the fish n chip supper on Good Friday. And the beers on Saturday…

Thankfully at Big Tee Shirt we stock a variety of that old favourite jeans with stretchy waists that avoid having to undo buttons at the dinner table. After all, the last thing you want after enjoying your mother-in-law’s roast is to stand up only for your slacks to hit the floor. No-one needs to see your Kinder surprise. Not even her.

‘Cracking’ outdoor and active wear

I get the meat sweats after I’ve had a good roast – so you may feel the need to get some fresh air after that hefty dinner. Hop on over to our fantastic outdoor clothing ranges and see what tickles your fancy.

Whether it’s an Easter egg hunt with the kids, paint-balling with the lads or a merry jaunt across the countryside with the missus – don’t let the weekend become a damp squib by getting caught out in the April showers.

We stock a variety of plus size men’s waterproof and windproof jackets – not to mention thermals. From our soft shell jackets and fleeces for brighter days – to our waterproof jackets and parkas.

And if you’re planning on doing something more active (are you mad?) – check out our utility gillets and waterproof hiking and walking boots.

Getting out in the fresh air has the benefit of burning off the Easter grub – so you have room to eat more when you get back!  The only ‘eggs-ercise’ I plan on doing this Easter is repeatedly lifting chocolate to my mouth.

Hot Dressed Buns

Easter means a bonus Bank Holiday and more opportunities to enjoy a night down the pub. Single lads can impress ‘chicks’ at the bar with our smart-casual wear. We’ve got a cracking range of extra large dapper shirts,  along with stretchy smart trousers and chinos if you want to accentuate your buns for the ladies.

Or if you’re up for a laugh, and maybe ruffling a few feathers, you could wear one of our (mildly offensive) funny slogan tee-shirts. From the safe and topical “Every time I hear the word exercise I wash my mouth out with chocolate” – to the bold “YES – I ATE ALL THE F*%KING PIES”

Hop back on to our site

Even with the big brands we stock, it really is no ‘yoke’ when we say we won’t be ‘beaten’ on price. And if you make your Easter plans a bit late this year you needn’t ‘scramble’ around for something to wear as we offer same day despatch if ordered by 2pm.
SO with such ‘egg-cellent’ customer service – you won’t end up with egg on your face this Easter.

 

Cheap Clothes For Big Men

 

I’m a big bloke. I always have been.

Back in the 90’s I decided to start up Big Tee Shirt based on a simple philosophy: I wanted big men’s clothes at low prices. I knew all too well how hard it was to shop and find clothes that fitted properly when I wasn’t exactly formed in the standard mold.

There were two problems with big men’s clothes back then:
1: Finding the sizes that actually fitted me properly.
2: Finding bigger sized men’s clothes that were affordable.

In fact, finding clothes over a certain size at all was next to impossible. So, with necessity being the mother of invention, I created Big Tee Shirt: The home of clothes for big men with prices that we can all afford… Then took the business online to make sure that we had any big man in the uk covered. Literally.

Cheap On Price, High On Quality

It’s worth noting that “cheap” is a term that can be used in a number of ways. When I say it, I am referring to the price of the clothes we sell. It’s always been important to me that my customers feel like they have got a bargain so simply being cheap isn’t enough: It needs to be low cost but high quality.
I’m really proud to say that we stock some of the best brands available for big and tall men. Whether it’s Espionage, Kam, Double Two, Cotton Valley or D555 (To name but a few) – We’ve come to know and trust our suppliers and pride ourselves on not selling anything that we wouldn’t wear ourselves.

It’s taken me the best part of 20 years and quite a bit of trial and error to say that we have the very best names, the very best quality and the very best prices for big men’s clothes online. But year on year we get better and you simply won’t find the same value for money anywhere else.

 

“Big And Tall Men’s Clothes @ Small Prices”

Our company motto says exactly what we stand for.

Over the years I’ve seen companies come and go offering clothes for big guys at prices that are sky high. It’s fair to say that many companies feel compelled to ‘overcharge’ for larger sizes because perhaps they see it as ‘specialist’ or maybe the extra fabric means you can get away with hiking the prices? Maybe it’s the additional labour required to make larger clothes? We don’t know what other excuses there could be.

We’re not simply a business that’s here to take your money, we rely on you coming back. We do this by ensuring our profit margins are tight – and then passing that saving straight onto you, the customer. We stand by our motto and always will because we know the lifetime value of a customer is more important that making money in the short term. If you’re happy with the quality of the item, the price and the service, you’ll return. It’s simple!

The Big Tee Shirt Brand

We’re more than just a website: We’re Big Tee Shirt the clothing brand.

There has been times where we simply couldn’t find the clothes we were looking for at all. Not on the high street, not online, not anywhere. As a result, we decided to set up our own brand and create the clothes we wanted to wear because we couldn’t find them elsewhere.

We don’t just provide our customary big t-shirts either. There’s trousers, shorts, jogging bottoms, hoodies, underwear, sweatshirts and much more. As our waistline has grown, so has the range!

 

Standing The Test Of Time

Of course, we’re not the only place for plus-sized men’s clothes any more but we work hard to be the best.

Providing affordable and fashionable clothes for large men is important but we take pride in offering something extra that you won’t always find – and that is a level of care and customer service which won’t be beaten.

We’ve been here for nearly 20 years and plan on being here lot longer. We couldn’t do that without you and your continued support. So long as people keep coming back, we’ll keep providing big men’s clothes at small prices.
