You guys look decent with your shirts untucked...I feel I look like a slob every time I untuck. Is it just the MCer in me?

I feel the same way. Lately I've tried untucking based on SW&D advice, and I agree that it sometimes looks better. Still feel like a slob, 'though.

Maybe so, if the shirt is short enough. I've found that most of my shirts are either "tuckers" or "un-tuckers," because if it's short enough to look good un-tucked it's probably not long enough to stay tucked. I really wish this weren't the case - shirts would have so much more versatility otherwise.

it's physics... the way of the universe! ya, I wish all the cuffs on my pants could magically adjust to the type of shoe/boot I'm wearing or I could interchange all my shirts with all my jackets but it rarely works out. "Untuckers" look cool that way for a reason.. the same reason "tuckers" do NOT look cool that way. Different shirts for different occasions and personally I don't find it "slobby" at all... if done right and the shirt warrants being untucked it's casual... nothing to worry about fellas!

I have no idea how you manage to do that. All the tuckable shirts I own are way too long and don't stay tucked even then. I have just entered the world of MTM, so maybe that will change.

Other than the tapered jeans, looks good imo
(of course, that's just because I don't think tapered jeans have any business being on a man)

Are you serious or just trolling
You don't know taper when you see it? Really?

No i'm serious. Unless Mr.K wants to chime in here I am nearly certain that those jeans have no "built in" taper. It's a combination of thigh and roll.
But I might be wrong. I see how it looks like that in the image.

Us short people with small feet benefit greatly from a bit of taper. Anything bigger than an 8" hem swallows my shoes. I think Mr K's are Weird Guys so they have a 7" hem I think. Not straight leg but not skinny-jean super taper either...

I'm pretty sure any jean based off a 501 tapers from the thigh to the ankle.
