Rebranding Casual Male


Customer Research
Least favorite aspect of clothing shopping was “difficulty
finding items in my size”
They were shopping at “the end of the rack”
Stigma with “big and tall”
store
“big and tall”
stores were consistently referred to as
places where “fat guys”
shop
Current image associated with Casual Male
A degree of discomfort with shopping at the store for
“big and tall”
Belief that the clothing started around a 48”
waist
Merchandise and selection lacked a sense of style
Had unattractive, inconvenient locations
Casual Male was a place of necessity rather than a
destination of choice


50% of customers refer to Casual Male as the “Big & Tall”
store
