TUCK TIPS
- need to be mid or high rise
- absolutely no skinny or slim for jeans or trousers
- straight leg seems best for jeans. can't get wider to work. too gen z for me.
- straight leg is good to really wide for trousers can be a sick look (but maybe too k-pop for goEMAW).
- shoe chunkiness must match pant wideness
- the higher the waist, the bigger the dick energy

I like the Levi's 512 for jeans. But not the weird stretchy kind. Just regular jeans material. 501's are great as well imo.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

i've started tucking everything. it was a long and tough journey experimenting with the tuck and going out with a bunch of trash fits and probably getting laughed at behind my back. but i believe i've figured it out and i think it's going to change my life.

<<< officially biggest tuck on goEMAW

Tuck pro-tip that seems weird and maybe dorky but is very worthwhile; tuck your undershirt (you need to wear an undershirt) into your underpants, then tuck the regular shirt in between the underpants and regular pants/jeans. It does a great job of keeping the regular shirt tucked nicely in place. Also, make sure your pants are secured above the hip bones.

Between tucking and undershirts, eff.

Try it next time you need to tuck.



I don’t like will spradling and I don’t wear undershirts.

Failure to take sage fashion advice with humility.

Undershirt in the skivvies is an old military tuck trick. Keeps everything nice and tight. Nobody has time for undershirt creep below the uniform.

This color palette looks exactly like the rugby shirt that I got as a gift yesterday.  That's right I said rugby shirt. In the year 2024 and not 1994.  I have several questions about rugby shirts, a couple of which I can answer and hopefully this board can take care of the rest.

Who is still making rugby shirts?  The Gap, apparently
Who is still buying rugby shirts?  My mom
Are rugby shirts a thing again? 
If they are a thing should I, as an oldster, attempt to wear it?

Oh man, I had one of these in fourth grade. It was my most prized piece of attire at the time.

I mean, you can’t really wear black with these colors, so hell yeah bring in the brown and the khaki! Jeans still work!

I think all of my clothes purchases (work and leisure ) in the last year have come from either LLBean or Manhattan Running Company. That is the only fashion tip I have to offer.

I lost a small amount of weight and discovered today I now nail an off the rack size for Jos. A Bank traveller suits which are what I buy for work because they are fairly cheap and durable. No alterations required on pants or jacket. feel like I'm now stuck at trying to stay this exact size for ease of future shopping. can just monitor when they go on clearance and order online. such a luxury. it was so weird feeling to walk in and walk out with a suit in hand 15 minutes later. usually I'm getting prodded and poked and chalked up.

I bought six suits at Macy's a few weeks ago. Needed a wardrobe revamp for our wedding and cruise. Grabbed an extra for Derby week as well.

I scrolled back a bit to see if this has come up recently, but had to stop once I read "Will Spradling".

Gentlemen, what's the best sock to wear when you're wearing a casual/business casual sneaker/tennis shoe and shorts?
