Half tuck looks like you just took a whiz and you forgot to pull your shirt out of your pants after you buttoned them back up.
Do you ever half-tuck?

For Pete's sake, folks, even Pop_Rivit wears his shirts half-tucked. Better watch your mouths!

Hot wheels, you're just way too cool for humble me.
Yep. Way too cool.
If this were 1984, he would be telling us how cool parachute pants are...how we are all dorks because we don't wear Bugle Boy.....

I confess, I never owned a Members Only jacket.

Amen, Kestas, Gotta be a Left Coast thing, San Franciscans, tend to work at being light in the loafers. Is metrosexuality permitted here?

I only wear T shirts, year round and never tucked in. If that makes me a "slob" so be it. I don't really care!

I wear T-shirts untucked all the time, as previously stated. I wear them when it's appropriate to do so.
But wearing them in the wrong circumstances, like going out to dinner at a nice place, would make you a slob.
But hey, at least you're not desperately trying to be cool and hip by tucking just part of it in...for those that just have to follow the latest fashion "trend"...well...they just look desperately foolish...kind of like the guys who wore one glove in the 80s..."it's cool... I like the asymmetry..."
Sure, whatever, add that one glove to your Bugle Boy parachute pants gathering dust in the closet...

You make a lot ot assumptions and take things I said out of context which I won't bother to address. Enjoy running around buttoned-up all the way to gills with your pants in a bunch.

hot wheels - You've taken my responses to other posters to be aimed at you when they weren't, so I am not the one with my panties in a bunch, I've been quite calm over all this discussion.
But I'm also not the one trying so desperately to be cool.
My closet includes everything from T-shirt to white tie. The entire spectrum.
The trick is in knowing what to wear and when. Avoiding trendy fashion is a large part of that, but it takes some perspective to know what's trendy, and what a man should avoid.
The mullet was one of these trends. I heard how cool that was. I avoided it. I heard how cool platform shoes were. Avoided that one too. So many examples over the years...many of which I've already mentioned....this "half tuck" is just one more example...
Boys, on the other hand, lack that perspective and are easily swayed by fashion trends and a powerful desire to fit in. They make some dumb decisions as a result.
Want to impress a girl? (which is the only reason that boys dress up, unless you're trying to impress other boys). Lose the gut, put your fit, toned body in a classic set of clothes, appropriate to the occasion, throw on a nice, but not ostentatious, watch just to complete the look, and carry yourself and speak with calm confidence and some intelligence. Think "James Bond". The girls of substance will notice. Those that don't notice probably think that Justin Bieber is hot...and you'll want to avoid them anyway....at least in the long run....

I have it written in my final wishes that if buried, I be wearing a T-shirt. (Untucked)

Here you go again with making assumptions, this time with a hefty dose of selfrighteous lecturing thrown in for good measure.

Just to remind people about what this thread is. And yes, I do find the fake J Crew guide funny.

Tuck a polo in? Sure.
Leave it untucked? No problem. Particularly in the summer, they were designed to be untucked.
T-Shirt? No one cares. You're already a slob...so don't try to hide it by tucking the thing in...half of them slip out anyway.
But a dress shirt? Tuck it in. It has long tails to allow it to be tucked in. Leaving it untucked makes you look like you're trying to hide being fat....or that your mother let you dress yourself that morning...
Do half of it? Looks like either you don't know how to tuck in your shirt, or you let it slip out, or you're trying to hide your girth...but it looks slovenly. No two ways about it, you look like a dork if your dress shirt is half tucked in...
Yup, that's my take on it as well. Mind you, I'm about as trendy as Stephen Harper, so.......
And if I'm wearing a T-shirt, well, that's because I don't care, LOL! Dress, particularly adhesion to any sort of modern "style" other than when I need to step it up for a meeting or something, is low on my list of priorities.

Someone please explain to me how I'm trying to be cool or trendy by doing something that I have been doing for over 30 years? I'll be 49 years old this month and I don't recall ever dressing guided by current trends. If anything, I have avoided trends, simply because I don't like the uniform look.
I guess I should not start a thread about plumber's butt - the forum couldn't take it.

It was your original post. We're all just hopeless dodos that should fall off a cliff if we don't follow your fashion....
