Of course. How else are the blonde belters supposed to know how hard I klap gym, boet?

Also, because the average South African male is obese, most shirts look like a tent on me. I solve this by buying slim fit which gets me mostly where I want to be, and then usually getting it tailored to where it should be.

Yes, but I don't wear it one or two sizes too small. Shirts, when it looks like Hulk Hogan is tearing it apart then you look like an idiot.

Slim generally means that it isn't widened in places. I have purchased regular shirts, and sometimes, I look like a French musketeer. Fit, that is all, regular or slim.

Slim pants. **** me. Sometimes I don't know what is going on with men. Your pants shouldn't be creeping up into your arsehole.

If you have a gram of fat on you then slimfit pants or shirts is a no-no. I think the buyers from the likes of Edgars or Woolworths arent in touch with the average-shape SA male

It totally depends on the shirt - but yes I do own a few slim fits, but probably just as many regular fits

EDIT: I also hate tight fitting clothing -I am very fussy with what I wear, typically jersey's are a no-no

Where are all these tiny South African men, lol? Do clothing buyers have eyes? Seems like pretty much everything in some outlets is ”slim fit” these days.

I must say I am noticing more healthier people nowadays. Well, you can see they are healthy when estimating their BMI.

Maybe it is a Cape Town thing...

Can't buy regular fit anything - any regular fit shirt looks like a tent on me.

I'm a big guy - over 6 feet tall, decent shape but no sixpack. Slim fast is the right size, regular fit is way too baggy. I'm too old for the skater look.

Slim fit also isn't tight, its just right. I can't fit into skinny jeans, for instance. My calves are too big. But slim fit is just right.
