Men's shirts worn out: how to choose and what to combine with?
A shirt is an important element of a man's wardrobe. Some men prefer to tuck such items into their trousers. Others like to wear them outside. The second option of socks is ideal for informal looks, but not every model is suitable for this. We will figure out which shirts are worn outside, how to choose the appropriate option, and also who are suitable for such images.
What kind of shirts are worn outside?
There are 2 main types of men's shirts: classic (shirts) and casual models (sometimes they are also called sports). Products of the first type are worn with business suits and ties. Moreover, they are always tucked into trousers. Products of the second type are considered informal. They are worn both tucked in and out. These shirts can be combined with jeans, shorts, chinos, any footwear.
In order not to get into a stupid position, wearing a sports shirt for a business meeting, or choosing a formal shirt for a relaxed everyday outfit, it is important to understand what the difference is between these products.
So, the classic models have several characteristic differences.
- Relatively thin but high quality fabric. It can be a pinpoint, twill, or something similar.
- Rigid collar. This feature allows products to look good when paired with ties.
- Discreet colors. Usually these are monochromatic models. Shirts with prints also exist, but the drawings in this case are laconic and non-challenging (a thin strip, a dim small cell, and the like).
- Semi-fitting fit. Since such products are worn under jackets, excess volume is useless.
- Lack of pockets. As a last resort, a classic shirt may have 1 pocket. At the same time, it is not recommended to put anything in it.
Now let's look at the signs of sports models that are worn out.
- The materials are different... These are thin linen, cotton, and thick fabrics (flannel, denim and others).
- Wide range of colors. These shirts can be colorful and even bold. A large check, various inscriptions, floral and other spectacular prints, a combination of contrasting and rich shades - all these are signs of a free style.
- Decor. More pockets, decorative fasteners, colored inserts and other elements also give out the informal purpose of the product.
- Different cut options... A sports shirt can be either tight-fitting or loose, there are oversized models, asymmetric cut options, products with a straight and rounded bottom. The sleeve can be long or short. The collar can be traditional or absent altogether.
Selection Tips
Choosing the right option among casual style shirts can also be difficult. When choosing, it is important to consider several basic nuances.
Style
It is important to remember that Outside shirts look good only on men of medium and tall stature. It is better for short representatives of the stronger sex to tuck such products into trousers. Choosing the cut of the model, you should also focus on the features of the figure. If you have an athletic build, you can opt for a semi-fitted cut. If you are a thin or overweight man, it is better to give preference to a freer model.
The size
The product should clearly fit you in size. If the purchase is made on the Internet, be sure to look at the size table, which indicates the main parameters corresponding to each letter or number designation. If you buy clothes from a regular store, try on the model of your choice. Move around in it, raise your hands, appreciate the convenience.Complete freedom of movement must be preserved.
And also appreciate your appearance in the mirror. The sleeve (if it is long) should cover the wrist. The collar of the product should not press and cause discomfort when turning the head. Ideally, one finger fits between the neck and the fabric with the buttons fully closed. Pay attention to the position of the shoulder seam. It should be located strictly above the armpit. The armhole should also be in the proper place for it.
As for the length of the garment, a shirt that is not tucked in should cover half of the back pocket of the jeans. A shorter or longer version will not look good.
The right combination
The most common option is an oversized shirt worn with jeans. And also chinos of any shade can act as the bottom of the outfit. Shoes may vary. In such cases, sneakers, sneakers, slip-ons, any shoes or boots, except for the classic options, are appropriate.
You can wear a shirt outside and with trousers that have arrows. However, such an image cannot be called office. To emphasize the informality of the outfit, you can roll up the sleeves of the shirt, and choose sneakers or sports shoes as shoes.
The same goes for tie... If you wish, you can wear it with a sports shirt. However, in this case, it is better to combine the worn out-worn model with jeans. Again, this image is only suitable for informal occasions.
As for jackets, usually the shirts worn underneath are worn tucked into trousers. Although another option is also possible. This does not mean a tailored suit jacket. It can be a casual jacket paired with jeans or chinos, open or casually buttoned up with one button.
In the summer, you can compose beach and city images with shorts. If you use bright colors, you get a shocking outfit. If you give preference to calm shades, your appearance will be quite intelligent, but light and relaxed.
Shirts are often used in layered bows. For example, they can be combined with sweaters. Another option is combination with a T-shirt... In this case, both layers can be worn out. An option is also possible in which the T-shirt is tucked into the trousers. Top layer can be buttoned or worn open. More often than not, check flannel shirts and denim are used in such looks, although the choice is not limited to this. Choosing a set of two products, color balance should be observed (it is better if the print is only on one of them).
It is also important to take into account the thickness of the layers (the upper one should not be thinner than the lower one).
Stylish looks
Here are some interesting options for informal bows.
- A light crisp white shirt and pistachio-colored shorts create a perfect beach outfit. However, you can also go for a city walk.
- You can choose a model with short sleeves for a summer day. In this case, even a dark color is allowed. If you combine such a product with a white bottom, you get a spectacular contrast.
- The printed shirt can be combined with the original semi-sport style trousers. Bright sneakers will complement the look.
- A checkered shirt with a tie and jeans are an uncommon solution. Stylish casual outfit.
- In cool weather, you can complement the look with a jacket. The fabric casually "peeking" out from under the top layer creates the effect of ease.
