Practical advice:
1. Before purchasing, be sure to measure your thigh circumference (the circumference of the thickest part) and hip circumference to make sure there is 3-5cm margin in the thigh area of the pants.
2. Avoid choosing styles with too much accumulation on the trouser legs, which will make the lower body look more bloated.
3. When matching tops, it is recommended to choose a slightly looser version to keep the overall proportions coordinated.
4. You can try to tuck the front part of the top into the waistband of the pants and let the back part hang down naturally.
Through reasonable selection of trousers and matching skills, men with thick legs can completely look tall and stylish. Remember that the key to fashion is not your body shape, but how to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses wisely!
