Topman is the British high-street menswear label launched in 1978 as Topshop's menswear offshoot, covering denim, jersey, tailoring, outerwear and accessories at high-street prices. ASOS bought the Topshop/Topman brands out of Arcadia's collapse in February 2021, then sold a 75% stake to Heartland, the Holch Povlsen family's investment vehicle behind Bestseller, in a joint venture agreed September 2024; ASOS retains 25% plus design and distribution rights. The brands relaunched a standalone Topshop.com in August 2025, marked by a see-now-buy-now Trafalgar Square runway show.

| Jeans & denim | slightly small | skinny, slim and stretch-heavy cuts dominate; looser fits are more recent | regular, with short and long options historically limited | Take your true waist if you like a tight fit, otherwise go up an inch as the stretch denim sits close on the thigh and seat. | medium |
| Jackets | runs small | slim, close-to-body cut with narrow shoulders | regular to short | Size up so you can wear a knit underneath, as the slim shoulders and sleeves leave little layering room. | medium |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | runs small | slim through chest and sleeve, though oversized/boxy lines exist and fit closer to label | regular, occasionally longline | Take one size up in the standard slim tees; stay true to size in styles explicitly sold as oversized. | medium |
