When I came to US, one of the first words of wisdom imparted on me was: wear your t-shirt tucked out. I did, for a very short time. However, it just felt wrong and stupid, and I felt like it made me look like a gangster wannabe. Eventually I just said fuck it and tucked it in, because that felt natural and comfortable to me.
Now, 18 years later, something struck me that never struck me before. Every single person I've seen on the street wears it tucked out. Male, female, white, black, Hispanic, or Asian, regardless of age, all of them wear their t-shirts tucked out. I very rarely got any kind of a ribbing for my tucked-in style, and not being the type to notice things, it never struck me how unusual my tucking style was.
This got me thinking: why do people wear t-shirts like this? It seems stupid to me. You risk revealing your butt cleavage, catching the end of your t-shirt on something, looking overly sloppy, and for what? Is there a functional advantage to not tucking your t-shirt in, or is it just considered to be such a severe fashion faux pas that no one even considers an alternative?
Makes you look less fat. T-Shirts aren't formal wear, they are casual wear. So you really shouldn't have to put much effort into wearing them.
Who knows. It's a more casual style, lets in more air flow, whatever. I assume you mean regular t-shirts and not undershirts.
Let's beat up the foreign kid.

Tucked out..WTF is that. You mean untucked I gather.
Untucked it's easy to carry a concealed weapon. ;)
untucked/ʌnˈtʌkt/
▶adjective with the edges or ends hanging loose; not tucked in.
'untucked' also found in these Oxford entries
As a more serious answer, I think it has to do with the design of the Tshirt. Dress shirts have tails or whatever you call them to keep them from untucking. Tshirts don't. So the only way to prevent tshirts from untucking is to yank your pants up real high. That's unequivocally dorky.

:huh: I've never had that problem with t-shirts, in fact it's my dress shirts that untuck occasionally. T-shirts are generally long enough to go into jeans with some depth, so while some of it may untuck when you bend over and such, not enough will come out to get it untucked. My pants always settle at the top of the hip bone level (when felt from the front), so I don't think they're yanked up that high either.
Top of the hip bone sounds pretty high to me. Mom jean territory. Post a picture of your crotch so we can be sure.

Tucking in t-shirts went out with mullets, acid washed jeans, and
Slippery When Wet.
Unless you're 140 pounds, and you need as much padding as possible to keep your pants on.
I think over here it's mostly Turks and Balkanistic kids who tuck their Ed Hardy or ITALIA t-shirts into their pants.
Tucking in your t-shirt is a fashion crime. Just buy one that fits properly and you won't even need to tuck it in.
The T-shirt is by definition the most casual of wear.

Sorry, but yeah. I agree. There are even dress shirts designed to not be tucked in. I have a couple of those and I wear them to work once in a while. Almost all dress shirts need to be tucked though.
But not in that billowy puffed out at the waist way. Get a fitted shirt and don't show your crew neck underneath unless you're a Marine.

But here is the thing: I'm tucking it in because it's more comfortable that way.

Therefore, I don't see this in the same league as wearing socks with sandals, because there you're obviously directly contradicting the very purpose of sandals.

Then don't wear clothes that are not meant to be tucked in, if in fact you want to wear only clothes meant to be tucked in "for practical reasons".
I think it says something about you that you find anything tucked in "more comfortable" than untucked. In fact, it is probably a good idea to go ahead and tuck in your pocketed t-shirts, because it is an effective way to communicate your personality to the world without the uncomfortable and often awkward need for actual spoken communication. Especially with girls.
Maybe get a pocket protector for your pens while you are at it... :P

I think some of my tees have pockets, but I don't know why anyone would put anything in them. It would fall out every time you bent over.
I only wear untucked, but even most regular "tall" sizes are too short to avoid "plumber's crack". Though I've found that sometimes Champs Sports or Foot Locker have really long tall sizes...though for some reason, usually only the cities/regions known for gang activity. :hmm:
The only things I might ever put into my shirt pocket are my cell phone (if the pocket is deep enough) and my Work ID.

You fashion Nazis broke me. Yesterday I wore the t-shirt untucked. It felt kind of weird feeling sweat beading up on my back, rather than be absorbed by the t-shirt right away. It did feel a little cooler, though (temperature-wise, of course). I even got a lot of tongue action and some tail from the girl in my friend's house. :w00t: She looked like a dog, but I'll take it.

Hell, most companies are ditching the Fridays Only thing, and letting it go full time.
My company expects me to wear business casual Mo-Th (shirt+pants) with casual Friday meaning jeans and an untucked shirt (t-shirts permitted but frowned upon). Mind you, most of us have no contact to the outside world.
BTW, I got some Savile Row fitted dress shirts on Amazon yesterday for $35 each. They're normally like 150. Might want to check that out if you know your measurements.

In the Yukon I wore denim all the time, and changed when it was time to go to court.
Now that I'm the city it's full suit during business hours.

Wearing my wool suits (that I got before Syms "An educated consumer is our best customer" went out of business :weep:) in the 105 degree weather every day has been an experience. :face:
Go tuck yourself, DGuller. :hug: Although I don't really wear T-shirts alone that often, I'm generally a tucker, and yes I get hassle for it, but you know what: style is style. And as Martin Luther Short once said: Here I stand, I can do no other. :sleep: :pope:

No joke. My suit's wool, too, and it's rotten in this heat. Luckily, I only had to do that once (which is why I haven't bought more than one suit yet :lol: ).

Maybe it's some hipster thing?
You're in the Deep South...suit should be alligator skin. :P
It's alright to tuck your shirt in if any two of the following apply:
1) You are quite skinny.
2) You have excellent body definition.
3) You are paying attention to style and fashion and the decision to tuck is part of a complete and considered approach to style.
4) You just don't give a fuck.

It became clear when I met you that you have some strange preconceptions about life here. :hmm:

That may just fall under 4 though.
Tucking your shirt in takes effort, seems untucked would be more natural for "just doesn't give a fuck".

It isn't alright if you don't know better. ;)
