POLL: Do you wear an undershirt beneath your button downs ?

[polm]

Durring the winter I always wear an undershirt underneath casual button down shirts.

Durring the summer, when I am good and tan, I sometimes leave the undershirt out.

What about you ?

 

[Ryan]

Always - But then again, I alwas have an undershirt under every shirt I wear

 

[djheater]

always, the shirts last longer that way.

Sweat, you know.

 

[FoBoT]

it keeps your man nipples from showing

 

[MazerRackham]

When I go clubbin', no. But for work, yes.

 

[BigSmooth]

I used to, but my office is too hot, so now I never do.

 

[Maverick]

always wear an undershift because it makes the clothes last longer.

It is a useless battle that some people get pulled into. People can see through your button shirt? Gasp! Put on another shirt. Oh no, people can now see your undershirt! What to do, what to do? Ok put on another shirt between your button shirt and your undershirt to prevent people from seeing what might be on your undershirt. Gasp, people can see your inbetween shirt...

I once had a roommate with that exact same logic. He ended up wearing 3-4 shirts every day. Then he had a crazy shirt washing pattern. The outer shirt is "dirty" from outside elements. The innermost shirt is "sweaty" from wearing it. So those two would need to be washed after every use. But the 1-2 inner shirts are clean and will be slowly rotated to become the innermost shirt therefore reducing the amount of washing needed when you wear 3-4 shirts at a time.

But soon it didn't end with button shirts. He had to wear undershirts and inbetween shirts for all styles of clothing. With all those layers under a T-shirt he looked like the Pillsbury dough boy (except for where his arms were visible).

Don't go down that path. I never wear anything under a button shirt. If the button shirt is so transparent that you can see yourself through it, then it is a crap button shirt and don't buy it to begin with.

Oh no. The insanity is starting with you already!

 

[Encryptic]

Nope. If that means I'm exposing my man boobs, so be it.

 

[vi edit]

Nope. I'd be a sweaty beast if I had to wear more than one layer of clothing.

The undershirt gets pitstains so that the good shirt doesn't have to.

 

[bigben]

Gotta have the undershirt...protects the nipples from scratchy overshirts

 

[Jeff7181]

I don't wear casual button down shirts... I only wear them to job interviews and weddings and such =) I've never had a job where I have to wear more than a t-shirt... I often wear white t-shirts only.

 

[Electric Amish]

No....never

amish

 

[conjur]

Sometimes...only with white dress shirts.

 

[T3C]

yes

i leave one on most of the time, on peticularly hot days i'll take it off, but normally i'll always wear one, and since my entire wordrobe is buttondowns.....that's pretty much every day

 

[monk3y]

Definately not when it's summer.

 

[ragazzo]

Only if button-down shirt permits others to see my nipples :-o

 

[Toasthead]

Always

 

[isaacmacdonald]

Practically never. It's warm enough as it is. Then again I never wear ties, so call me crazy-

 

[Dedpuhl]

Never. I like to show off my gold chain and hairy chest



...actually, I'd sweat to death. I live in Southern Louisiana and suffer from hyperhidrosis.

 

[astroview]

Always, although if you can see the undershirt underneath a white shirt I won't wear it then. Maintains the main shirt for longer, but funny my college roomates always made fun of me for them. For what its worth I prefer them to be tight heh.
