What do you think is the ideal male height range for dressing well and looking good in general (assuming no fucked up proportions)?
I've noticed shorter people have to focus more on the fit of their clothing, and that taller people are less bothered by that. Straight leg jeans look good on tall guys but not so much on short people; same thing for long coats, the list goes on, but I'm wondering what the ideal range is.
I'd like to know which height range you think is the best for looking (somewhat) effortlessly good, without having to worry too much about fit, and also, which height range if any allowed you to pull off most clothing (eg. oversized tees tend to look bad on short people).

No true at all. i'm 6'2" and I have trouble keeping my proportions right. If my pants are quite high around my waste I can't tuck my shirt because my legs would look 5 meters long.

Ameriburger sizes are more forgiving by telling you lies about how perfect and cool your giant fat ass is.
Idk, gigantic bros just get ameriburger stuff in size small and you will swim in dat shit.

Objectively best height is 6'0''
Most stuff fits you but you're tall enough to still stand out among most people; you can be ripped without looking like you're overcompensating, yet you're not intimidatingly tall...

6'0 master race, 6'1 works too

Question

Will you really stand out in America by being 6'0? Seems average as fuck to me for a male in his twenties-thirties (alright you'll tower over old people but young males will mostly be the same height as you are)

I'm 6'0 and I want to be intimidating but I feel like I'm too short for that

>> No.8174726

no, 6'4"-6'5" is when things get noticeably tall. still at 6'0" you're going to be taller than about 7/10 people you run into

Depends where you are. North east or the west coast there's more whites, Asians and spics so you'll be taller.

Down south, in wash DC and other major inner cities where black people are you won't be as tall

I'm 5'10" and 160 lbs, which is decidedly average. Everything in a small or medium fits me exceptionally well, tops are never too baggy, pants are never too long. I shop a lot of places but my basics are usually J. Crew.

My tall friends who are 6'2" usually are the ones that have difficulty finding a good fit.

as long as you're between 5'9"-6'2" people don't care. women will not get their panties wet over someone being 2 inches taller than 5'9", and I'm 6'1".

That's fine, again it's relative. Also posture helps, if you stand with correct posture and carry yourself out like a normal person you won't stand out as short unless you're standing next to a bunch of other taller guys.

If all else fails, move to Japan or Korea. You'll probably have a bigger dick than most of them, be slightly taller than most of them, have the exotic thing going for you, and get to fuck superior azn bitchez.
