How to Keep Your Shirt Tucked In (3 Different Methods You Can Try)

About this video

McGoff presents three techniques to prevent shirts from coming untucked throughout the day. He ranks shirt stays as the most effective solution, followed by rubber grip tape on waistbands and an under-tuck layering method, explaining how each works and addressing practical concerns like bathroom use and comfort.

Key takeaways

  • McGoff argues that shirt stays (also called shirt garters) are the most effective method for keeping shirts tucked in all day, as they connect to socks and provide constant downward pressure while also preventing socks from slipping
  • McGoff recommends rubber grip tape along the inside of waistbands as a secondary solution, noting it can be added to existing pants by a tailor or sewn in yourself if not already built in
  • McGoff suggests the under-tuck technique—tucking an undershirt into underwear before tucking a dress shirt into pants—as a third option that works better than traditional tucking but not as well as shirt stays
