I did that w/ the No Tengo (side pleats), but it messes w/ the lines of the pattern a bit + already has a center box pleat, so a little weird. I do prefer tucking shirts in general, but w/ casual shirts like these wearing untucked seems appropriate. So, same sizing as the linen?
AJL - just buy the shirts you like and have them shortened to the length you want. I cannot think of an alteration much easier to do and much harder to screw up than that.
Same answer if a shirt is slightly too blousy in the mid-section - it's a very easy and cheap alteration
