About Us

Finding clothes that truly fit shouldn’t be frustrating.

But for big and tall men, it often is.

For decades, too many guys have walked into stores only to find sleeves too short, shirts too tight, pants that don’t fit right, or limited options tucked away in a corner. Shopping for clothes became less about style and confidence, and more about simply settling for whatever was available.

That’s why BJ Benjims Big & Tall exists.

Since specializing in big and tall menswear in 1988, BJ Benjims has been dedicated to serving the men who are too often overlooked by traditional retail. From tall sizes with longer lengths and sleeves to extended big sizes and hard-to-find waist measurements, we built our store around one simple belief:

Every man deserves to feel comfortable, confident, and well-dressed in clothes that actually fit.

What started as a trusted local menswear destination has grown into a go-to outfitter for customers throughout Portage, Kalamazoo, and beyond. For generations, men have relied on BJ Benjims not just for clothing, but for honest service, dependable quality, and a team that understands the difference proper fit can make.

We know that no two builds are the same. That’s why we offer extended sizing, personalized service, and in-house tailoring to help our customers look and feel their best without overspending. Whether it’s everyday basics, workwear, casual styles, or something for a special occasion, our goal has always been to make shopping easier for bigger and taller men.

Today, BJ Benjims continues that tradition under new ownership, with a renewed commitment to growing the selection, expanding brands and sizing options, and modernizing the experience while staying true to what made this store a local favorite in the first place.

We’re proud to remain locally owned, community rooted, and focused on serving real people with real fit needs.

Because at the end of the day, BJ Benjims was never just about bigger sizes.

It’s about helping men walk out feeling comfortable, confident, and like themselves again.
