Tall Paul's Take on the Performance Tapered French Terry Jogger
My initial take on the AT Performance Tapered French Terry Joggers men’s was ‘meh.’
There are only three colours to choose from (black, grey, and blue), and visually I was having a hard time pairing these conservative-looking pants.
That all changed once I pulled on the Tech Navy Mix pair and felt the taper and cut worked perfectly with the cotton – polyester – elastane mix.
These joggers are one of the most perfect-fitting pants I have worn. That says a lot coming from a Tall Man with lifelong clothing struggles.
My dimensions are:
Height: 6’7 / 200cm
Weight: 220lbs / 100kg
Jogger size: L Tall (LT)

How to Take Care of Your Performance Tapered French Terry Joggers
American Tall’s fabric and care section say that the Performance Tapered French Terry Jogger should be machine-washed cold and put into the dryer using the tumble dry low.
These washing and drying guidelines seem like sound advice to me; however, being a giant my whole life, I am wary of using the drying machine on new pieces of clothing.
Washing your clothes in cold water with like coloured garments is always the smartest choice for us Tall Men.

My Care Tips
When it comes to drying, using tumble dry low is your safest play if you choose to use the dryer.
Instead of drying your joggers in the drying machine, you can dry your clothes using fresh air and sunlight.
