View Full Version : Should any man walk down the street looking like this in the summertime on his way to
TVFactFan 06-09-2005, 04:20 PM WORK? Wearing a Tie with a Short-sleeved dress shirt-LOL The dress code at my job has changed for the summer and men can now wear short-sleeved dress shirts with a tie. I'm sorry but i'm not tucking in a short-sleeve shirt and wearing a tie on top of it. Short-Sleeved Button down shirts should be worn out side of the pants. Not TUCKED in. I rather stick to the long thin long sleeve. Anyone disagree?

Brian Damage 06-09-2005, 04:24 PM I agree, that look never worked.
TripperFan 06-09-2005, 04:25 PM I gotta admit, I've always thought the short-sleeved shirt and tie look was goofy! Whether the shirt's tucked in or not - all you're missing is the pocket protector!! I'd rather see the sleeves on a long-sleeve rolled up than that look.
The other trend I don't like is company's with business casual dress codes and the guys are all in "corporate" golfshirts. I just don't think the sleeves on golf shirts are flattering to anybody!
Still beats the hell out of the wife beater shirt under a dress shirt look - all I can think of when I see guys wearing that is that they're hiding man boobs! :lol:
Mijada 06-09-2005, 04:27 PM I think if you have a tie on the shirt looks much better tucked in. Without a tie it looks fine either way to me depending on how long the shirt tail is.

Yeah I saw a guy with a wife beater under his dress shirt and i have to say it looked a little odd.

lmao wife beater
*MIBabe03* 06-09-2005, 04:44 PM Sorry it's kind of off topic but I hate it when men in their 40s come outside in their boxer shorts, it's disturbing. It happens to me all the time when I'm out walking in the morning.
barwars 06-09-2005, 04:52 PM Short sleeve shirts should not be tucked in.... and you should definitely not wear a tie with them. You're right Solomon, it is odd.
I think rolling up your sleeves is more comfortable, and much better looking.
Mysty Eyes 06-09-2005, 06:04 PM Shirt and tie? What's that??? :lol:
Oh... uh... sorry... My Los Angeles casualness is showing! Heh!
Seriously, I rarely see men dressed up at work anymore. Tee shirts, polo tops, short-sleeved shirts, long-sleeved shirts... you name it.
But usually, when a man is wearing a tie... long-sleeved shirts, I think, are more common (but I have seen the other)... and a suit jacket for being away from the work area.
I work in finance, so picture well-dressed and well-groomed for those men who do wear ties.

I dress up for my job. Lately, I have been wearing a short sleeve dress shirt tucked in because it has been hot as hell up here lately. I don't see a problem with it. But check this out, it is this dude that works for my company, he's kind of trashy, he wears wrinkled dress clothes and sneakers to go with it. How about that?

That guy you are talking about probably had a ketchup stain on his resume when he applied for that job-lol

On my way home from work today I saw a lot of guys with their long sleeve shirts rolled up. But that short-sleeved Shirt with a tie makes you look like a Goofball-lol

Brent88 06-09-2005, 07:36 PM A few years back I had to go to a funeral on a VERY hot day and I wore a short-sleeve dress shirt. Tucked in it looked HORRIBLE.

What's worse is when old guys do it! :eek:

What the hell kind of a neighbourhood do you live in anyway!!!!
Thank God "Ed Flanders" across the street from us he always spiffed up!! And I thought that was cheesy! :lol:

Holy smokes!! You just reminded me of a guy I worked for about 20 years ago. He's a spoiled millionaire's son, and therefore, a millionaire in his own right. He'd wear $1500 silk suits to work that looked like he had slept in the things. He even walked through the plant one day and the plant workers though he was a new guy just being orientated and was wearing the best suit he could get that day!
He looked like a TOTAL slob always but was worth a fortune! A really good looking man too - it was really strange! If I had been his wife, I wouldn't want him leaving the house looking like that - a bad reflection on me (course they had about 5 nannies and domestics so there's no excuse for not pressing something)!

LMAO! I don't know what kind I live in. I mean it's these dudes in their 40s, and they are watering their lawn in their boxer shorts. I mean it's bad enough that some of these guys are not wearing a shirt, but it doesn't take that long to put on some sweat pants or something either.
Janice 06-09-2005, 11:02 PM Tucked in, no tie. Pants pulled up past the elbows. Cliff Clavin floods. Pocket protector a must. Tape on eyeglasses optional. That's the best look.
TripperFan 06-09-2005, 11:25 PM Here's how you DON'T want to look!
I'm still trying to get over guys coming out of their boxers whilst watering the lawn. That would be enough to make me move to an apt. again I think! :eek:
