Welcome!

"Short Memo" is a forum for Consuelo C. Bova to share her knowledge about Men's Clothing. As founder and C.E.O. of ForTheFit.com (the nation's foremost short men's apparel retailer), she has learned a thing or two about Men's fashion- particularly as it relates to dressing shorter men. Her philosophy? "Men's fashion has less to do with the season's hottest trends or a man's natural good looks," she states "the secret is that any man, whatever his size or shape, can look amazing if he knows how to select the Right Style and the Right Fit for him." This blog will include style advice, tips, tricks and trends for making shorter men dress their very best.

Congratulations to the 2008 Short Man of Style...

We are proud to announce that a winner has been selected for this year's Short Man of Style competition. Sponsored by ForTheFit.com, National Short Man of Style Month occurs each year in June. As part of this yearly celebration “of men under 5’9” who stand tall & look great,” ForTheFit.com sponsors a competition to seek out the Nation’s most stylish shorter man. In addition to fashionable and under 5'9", he should be an over-achiever in life- i.e. with family, friends, career, and community. Contestant’s had to send in a photograph of themselves looking their most fashionable, as well as a short essay explaining why they were in fact this year’s best choice for National Short Man of Style. The grand prize, a new wardrobe from ForTheFit.com worth approximately $750, generated significant interest in the competition and picking a winner this year from the many qualified entrants was a tough job.

So who won? You'll need to visit www.ShortMenofStyle.com to find out! (or check back in a few weeks- when I'll profile him here on my blog).

Announcing the ForTheFit.com Annual Inventory Clearance Sale

As most of you know, we don't discount but once a year. It is that time again- we are clearing out inventory. This is a collection of best-selling items that sold all but a few units or a last couple of sizes- so we deeply discount to make room for the new Fall Inventory. The savings are HUGE- over 75% off in some cases. New products are added daily so check back often. In fact, just today, we added some spectacular deals on men's suits- some are sized for shorter men 5'9" & under, but others are available in a variety of sizes including men's Short, Regular, & Long Lengths. Check out the Ben Sherman Tux Jacket for less that $100- that is a steal.

Also, there is a coupon code on the homepage so that you can take an additional 10% off ANY ITEM IN THE STORE!

Hurry & Shop today before they run out (or I change my mind & fire the person who priced that Jacket so low!!! Just Kidding!)

Happy Shopping,

C. Bova
