I dunno that we're disagreeing, actually. Next time you're out buying clothes, try on a t-shirt that fits in the shoulders and has a good torso length, and then try one that's a size or two too large. That's the difference...usually you'll only notice with a jacket or a dress shirt, and only if it's too
small...but too large does make a difference, even with t-shirts.
I wear my t-shirts untucked too, with kilt or pants. As a matter of fact, at the moment I have two things to wear on top of my kilt...t-shirts, and hoodies
. Either one, if too large, looks goofy. It's not about tucking in the t-shirt, that's just silly...it's all about picking the right size for your body.
Oh, you can turn out well in jeans and a t-shirt
. IMHO, being a gentleman has !#@%-all to do with what you're wearing. How you're wearing it...as in, does it fit properly? has more to do with making a good visual impression than whether it's a suit or a burlap sack.
Taking a page from Jay & Silent Bob here...
...does that mean you're half gay, or half kilted?
The best 7-11 I've found was a place in Eagle, Alaska...actually, I don't even think it was a 7-11, just the local convenience store. The important thing was, it was really hot out, and they had a Slurpee machine.
Well...back to the topic...yes, I agree, the guy's suggestions for kilt accessories are tantamount to buffoonery...but I'll stand by what I assume is his
intent for guys to actually look good once in a while, even if our natural inclination is to roll out of bed, swab with deodorant, and smell-check the pile for something clean enough to wear to work
