Big Boyz Collections
Let's start with the name that says it all, UAE’s love, the “Big Boyz Collections”. This store isn’t your typical tailoring destination but a brand of plus-size men's clothing line for jelly belly males, crafted by people who really get it. We are masters of fashion-forward shirts, current fits without compromise on comfort.
What distinguishes us is our unique sense of shirts that contain crisp, sharp collars with hidden buttons for sleekness and a handsome look.
You’ll also have hoodies and sweaters that fall just so over the shoulders and offer you a well-defined look.
Prices are modest for the level of craftsmanship, usually from AED 500 for custom shirts and going up based on fabric choice. But there’s a discount too, almost every season, up to 50-70% off.
We also take bookings for appointments. Our shop is now in Wafi Mall, so no hanging around in lines all day, just you, your measurements, and a team that can dress you up smart.
