4 Ways To Tuck-In A Shirt - How To Properly Tuck In Your Dress Shirts

About this video

Centeno teaches practical techniques for tucking in dress shirts to maintain a polished appearance throughout the day. He explains what makes a shirt a good candidate for tucking, including proper fit and length, and demonstrates four methods: the basic tuck, the military tuck, the underwear tuck, and shirt stays, which he argues work best in combination.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues that proper shirt fit is essential—shirts should have minimal excess material around the waist and extend at least 3 inches below the belt line to stay tucked
• Centeno recommends the military tuck technique, where excess fabric is gathered from the sides and tucked away, which he says can hide material and look professional when combined with a belt
• Centeno advocates for shirt stays (also called garters) as his preferred method, as they attach the shirt to socks and prevent it from coming untucked, a technique he learned in the military
