The Best Clothes For Short Men To Wear In Winter (4 Outfit Ideas)
If you’re a shorter guy, there’s a good chance you’ve struggled with winter clothes that fit well. Most standard outerwear like parkas and quilted vests, and even all-season basics like jeans and henleys, are designed for guys that either have longer limbs, longer torsos, or both!
For years, I’ve recommended Peter Manning to my not-so-tall readers as one of the best options for clothes for short men… quality clothing that actually fits men of smaller stature well.
So, for my shorter fellas out there: Yes, you can stay warm and sharply dressed this (and every) winter season. Be sure to avoid over sized fits and excess fabric and use these four outfit ideas to update your smart casual winter style.

Everyday Layers

Here’s an outfit that can easily be worn every day. With navy chinos and a heather grey T-shirt as your base, you can pair up practically any other combination of mid layers and outerwear. For this, I wanted to keep it “menswear neutral” and go with light tans and olive.
Depending on your tolerance for cold weather, this would be a great outfit even if temps dip down to the 30s and 40s. You’ll be nice and toasty with your zip mock neck and quilted vest—two mid layers—under your insulated coat.
Running Errands

If you’re going for a more athletic, sporty casual look, here’s something you can try. I paired up Peter Manning’s army green cargos with a clean white henley. Then I imagine throwing the red vest over the henley, followed by the flannel shirt jacket that acts as your outermost layer. Finally, the scarf, for extra warmth (and style points).
Assuming it isn’t too cold out there, these layers could be all you need. But if it’s particularly chilly, you might want to add a parka—I’ve included one in outfit 4 below.

Cozy Loungewear

When you’re down to lounge, Peter Manning will save you from excess bulk and material in your comfy clothes, too. Pair up these clean joggers with a matching black henley or T-shirt and a vintage-inspired heather grey crew neck sweatshirt, and you’re ready to relax.
Need to pick up a pizza for the fam down the street? Running to the grocery store for a couple bottles of red? No need to change; your sweats look sharp because they fit well.
We don’t want you to freeze, though, so throw on the red down vest from earlier, and a black parka to shield yourself from the elements. You’re good to go!
