To Tuck Or Not To Tuck Tees

As the title says, do folks tuck their t-shirts? Historically, I've always been told this is generally a very nerd move that makes you look like a dork, but I keep seeing advice to the contrary this year. Are the rules changing? Are tucked tees in?

Depends on what you’re going for. There’s no hard rule on when to tuck or not and no it does not make you look like a dork

Yeah, comes down to personal preference, and plenty of people mix it up depending on the outfit. I haven't heard that it's nerdy to tuck your tees in since 2004, so I wouldn't stress about that

Well that's good to know! I definitely have a trucker jacket that benefits from the lower layers being tucked, lest they creep out under its hem.

I tuck more often when I've got a layer on top of the tee, creates a fun silhouette. I rarely tuck a tee on its own but I've done it in the past

@CinnamonF5 Trucker jacket? Why didn't you say so? Oh, the fit would look cleaner with a tuck. It will have that classic 50s vibe.

Yeah, that's generally the feel I get trying tucked vs untucked.

I tuck more than I should cos a) short torso and I'm already short as is (5'6, 167cm). my broad shoulders make S shirts fit odd. I go for M but lately I am preferring L, which r quite long for me lol b) i gotta get my shirts altered for that perfect untuck length but im lazy and cheap if im going for a rugged look, im more inclined to untuck. tangentially related but muji shirts are shorter than uniqlo shirts i think
