Do you tuck your undershirt into your underpants?

What's the downside of tucking in your shirt into your pants/trousers, but outside of your underpants? :confused:


And really, the only thing worse than tucking in your shirt is seeing someone with a sweater tucked in. That's horrible. I always feel bad for the guy. :(
 
i cant say i have ever tucked anything in my pants. pants are to cover bits up so if you were meant to tuck your vest in, then your vest would be pants instead! :)
 
OK, I do if I am wearing a suit. Yes I hate when my tshirt rides up my back and I am not wearing my suit coat (often don't cause of procedures).

I am gaining weight again and the damn thing rides up and I hate it. I don't wear a tshirt unless I am wearing a dress shirt, tie, coat. Well I do with my navy uniform but that doesn't count.

im not the biggest floyd fan, know a few of their friends, and im only 20 (well just about 21) so can i be excused then!
 
Underpants? Never.



Er, I mean never tuck a shirt into them, not never wear them. :eek:

The only time I ever tuck a shirt in is if I'm wearing a suit or a vest or something which it simply looks better with it tucked. This also reminds me of one time in 9th or 10th grade when at the beginning of the school year everyone was required to tuck their shirts into their pants/shorts/skirts (it was a public school, we didn't have uniforms) for fear of hiding weapons. :rolleyes:

Needless to say that rule was overturned rather quickly.

I usually wear vintage styled trousers with high english backs ("v" cut) and suspenders (no waist bands). Plus, I have my tailer sow in a stripe or rubbery non-slip material all around the inside of the waistline. I often wear a vest on top of that, so, no way my shirt could ever becomes untucked under those conditions. ^_^

Undershirt tucked in underpants? Definitly not. Big no-no. Fashion faux-pas.
 
That'd be a no.

But you see it all the time in underwear ads for Hanes or Fruit of the Loom. I wear XL-Tall t-shirts so I don't see how it'd be comfortable since they are so long.

I think you should call him Nacho Libre. A careful look @ the preview will illustrate the appropriateness of this moniker.

p.s. of course it makes you weird. you and everyone else who doesn't live in a padded room with locks on the outside, just kidding :D

I am in suits 5-6 days a week and have not been able to afford custom made since marriage.
I am familiar with the rubber in the waste band, I just use the one I already paid for in the tighty whiteies (starting to wear boxer briefs and love them). I used to wear suspenders and have a bunch of too small to wear now, french cuff dress shirts. How using the underwear to hold in my tshirt is a fashion faux-pas, I'll never know, cause no one can tell, I don't disrobe infront of my customers!;) Mostly cause I want them to remain my customers!:p

:p

That's the basis for an excellent picture thread right there!!

I could suggest the US and UK/European version of 'fanny', but those pictures would get the thread locked.
 
Now I remember?

The movie Christmas Vacation. Wasn't Griswald's brother in law, Eddie, out in the street wearing nothing but a tee tucked into his briefs sucking on a beer while empting his mobilehomes toliet into the storm drain. Disgusting scene.

If Rob were to see that he'd stop tucking.

Edit: I think he may have been wearing an open robe, but still...
 
no, tucking your shirts into your underwear is not attractive at all.

Don't tell me Rob is wearing Boxers too... :)

i'm for "no" as well

personally i don't wear "classic" undershirts anyway ... i only have some uni-colored t-shirts which i only tuck in when i'm wearing a sweater or something like that because i don't like the mostly longer t-shirt standing out

but i'm hardly the person to ask since my formal cloth range is limited:
1 suit, black
1 jacket (sacco ?) dark blue/green
2 formal shirts (1 white 1 grey)
2 ties (1 blue 1 red)
1 pair of formal shoes (uncomfortable)

;)
 
If I had an undershirt I personally wouldn't tuck it into my underpants. But then I don't own an undershirt as I don't live in the 1950's :D

(Sorry, couldn't resist!!)

Well. To be fair, the reasons why people whore undershirsts back then still applies today.
 
There's a simple solution to this problem:

1. Never wear undershirts. Unless you want to look like a grandfather.
2. Never tuck in anything into your boxers/underpants, unless you also tuck your pocket protector in there as well.
3. Hell, don't even tuck in your shirts at all. If that looks sloppy, you bought the wrong shirt.

There's nothing like looking at a man wearing a white, somewhat transluscent button-down shirt and seeing his skin/hair underneath. Mmm, mmm, mmm. :rolleyes:

My tough exactly. We've got a bunch of those "corporate nipples" at my work place and it's not a happy sight. :D
