Customer Spotlight: John from The Shades

on Jul 09 2025
Meet John – musician, performer, and living proof that great style exists for big and tall men. As the frontman for Chicago-based band The Shades, John knows the power of looking the part when you're front and center on stage.

The Big & Tall Style Struggle Is Real

Shopping for stylish clothes in 2XLT or extended sizes? You're not alone. John puts it best:
"If you are big and tall like me, you too can look cool. This is very important to me since it is difficult to find stylish clothes in this size."
For years, big and tall fashion meant plain, boxy, or oversized. At Eleven Oasis, we believe that style should be accessible at every size – no compromises.

Performance-Ready Shirts for Big & Tall Men

John doesn’t just need clothes that fit – he needs stage-ready style.
"I also play in a band and need cool and flashy shirts while on stage."
That’s why our Big & Tall shirt collection combines bold, retro-inspired designs with fits that move with you. Whether you're rocking a mic or just hanging out, comfort and confidence come standard.
