Retro bowling shirts have graced the bodies of celebrities and are part of the popular vintage fashion trend. They've been seen on shows such as "The Sopranos" and actor Charlie Sheen sported one in TV Guide. They're also popular at 50's Car Cruises and with those who enjoy Rockabilly and Swing Dancing.

But did you know they're also a comfortable clothing-of-choice for large men? Readily available in sizes up to XXXL (3XL), they are flattering to any body type.

Originally designed for the freedom of movement needed by bowlers, and all the rage in the 1950's, these shirts can be worn open over T-shirts or as a stand-alone fashionable shirt. Styles typically consist of verticle lines that lengthen the torso and have a slimming effect. They are equally suited for the bowling alley or the street, and go great with jeans, dockers or chinos. Wear sneakers for the casual sporty look or loafers to be a little more dressy. They're also a great choice for the club scene.

Beyond that, they're just plain cool. Fashionable yet unique, you can wear these and you won't look like everybody else.
