A Letter From Our Founder

I'm Russ Drenth, founder of PULSE ATHLETICS™ Men's Big & Tall Activewear, and while I might be considered "small" by big and tall standards at 6'5" and 240 lbs., I've spent my life facing the same frustrations as many of you. Whether it's the dreaded "plumber butt" or jog suits that never seem to fit right, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to find clothing that feels good, fits well, and looks stylish.

My journey started back in 1989, working at Mona's Big and Tall Clothing under Frank Mona Sr. Over the years, I managed stores and connected with countless men who shared the same struggles: clothes that didn't fit properly and a lack of fashionable options for guys like us. It became clear to me that big and tall men deserved more.

That's why I started PULSE ATHLETICS™. I wanted to bring something fresh to the marketplace — activewear that not only fits but performs, looks great, and solves the everyday challenges big and tall men face.

At PULSE ATHLETICS™, it's not just about clothing; it's about confidence. Stay active, stay confident, and as always, stay stylish.

Best,
