Cargo pockets can look ok, those seem like the type that might be fine, especially at the beach.

I'd say they'd be okay, if you drop the jacket.

Is this a nice jacket?

icepick · 06-21-2012, 10:41 PM

Looks vintage. I dig it, but not an every day thing.

PoseidonCubed · 06-22-2012, 12:15 AM

Looks like an excellent wardrobe addition, as long as it fits correctly of course.

I haven't waded through this entire thread, so apologies if this has already been answered. I tend to have the problem of my dress shirts bunching up a bit when I am wearing them.

Now, I know what you are thinking, and no, it's not because they don't fit. I wear slim to extra slim shirts, usually from slimmer brands in general (pink, boss, etc.). I do happen to be pretty skinny (6 foot, 150) so it could just be because of that, but I don't think so. It also could be that I just don't like to accept any level of bunching, so it's potentially a completely reasonable level to most, but it's just annoying to me.

Anyway, was wondering if anyone else has had this issue, if there are obvious solutions, either in the brand, materials, details of the shirts I buy (buy shirts that run shorter length, for example), or tips on how to wear a well-fitted shirt so you don't have to worry about it.

Where are they bunching?

just right above the belt. It also seems like it bunches up more as the day goes, so I find myself re-tucking every so often, though that might be completely normal, i dunno.

There might not be any real solution, since like I said, I already wear super slim, well-tailored shirts. But I see many people who seem to be wearing similar shirts that seem to be fitting their bodies better, so just curious if anyone has any random tips or thoughts on things I might do to minimize it further..

So the "bunching" is really just the shirts coming un-tucked from movement throughout the day?

I guess just continue to re-tuck. Not sure if it is completely standard, but it does happen to me as well.

European cuts are supposed to be even slimmer/more tailored so try a tailored fit from Charles Tyrwhitt or TM Lewin. Also, the dimensions of the shirts should be posted on their sites so you could compare them to your shirts.

It makes it worse, but most of my shirts, even when I first put them on, don't fit 'just right' to me. Probably a tough question for you guys to answer since you don't know exactly what the right fit is for me or what usually happens, but the general question is just does anyone have tips to avoid bunching or keeping a very slim profile with your shirts in general (outside of getting slim or extra slim cut brands)...
