(Boku no Hero Academia Manga Spoilers)

For a long time, Yagi Toshinori / All Might wears baggy clothes that stay intact in both forms. But Yagi can’t change into his hero form after the Hideout Raid arc (Manga ~Ch95). After that, he starts to finally wear clothes that are slim-fitted to his true form. The art style of the author, Kohei Horikoshi, gradually evolved as well.

Some examples to document the changes below:

Before (Manga).

Manga Ch2: Midoriya’s training. (Horikoshi was still getting used to drawing the characters at this point)

Manga Ch22: UA staff meeting. It’s pretty obvious those sleeves are meant for All Might’s hero form

Manga Ch23: Large pant legs

Manga Ch41: All Might reveals his quirkless past

Vigilantes Ch6 - Beta: This chapter was set long before the events of the main manga. It does looks like Yagi had clothes that fit his normal form, but he wore his hero uniform underneath and had to rip the top layer off every time he changed forms. Maybe he got tired of it and decided to wear clothes he could fit into in both forms?

Before (Anime).

Interestingly enough, the anime made it so that Yagi’s clothes fit reasonably well in both forms.

After (Manga).

Manga Ch101: Soon after the Hideout Raid arc and his retirement as a pro hero. He’s still injured so the baggy pants are fair. This is when a large piece of debris almost falls on him and Midoriya kicks it away to save him.

Manga Ch121: UA Entrance Ceremony for the second semester. A vest?

Manga Ch126: Midoriya asks Yagi to introduce him to Nighteye. Those sleeves finally fit!

Manga Ch161: That shirt is definitely meant for Yagi Toshinori. (Good Night, Nighteye)

Manga Ch163: A nice slim-fitting suit
