T shirts, no way. Unless you're buff and have the body of a Marine (as per above post), leave the shirt untucked and salvage some of your dignity. Honestly, I'm not a fan of it being tucked in even if you're buff, unless it's a requirement for a uniform.
As I've said, I do usually wear an undershirt I tuck in due to the belt issues. I only tuck in my normal shirt if I don't have an undershirt on or I am at work where I typically do even if it is a polo or a tee...
Everyone should tuck, regardless of gender, in my opinion. And I have no idea why anyone, but especially a man, would be wearing a designer t-shirt, if that means something like a t-shirt with the name "Armani" on it.
I'll just add that I live in a southern tourist town. It's ungodly hot for most of the year, so men wear sandals, shorts and untucked shirts for most of the time. Everyone is fine and dandy with this.There are only a few restaurants where this attire wouldn't be acceptable, especially at lunch.
A few weeks ago, an actor, who most of us would recognize, happened to be outside the front window of a restaurant where my dh and I were dining. He wore khaki pants, saddle shoes in which the saddle was the same shade of green as his tucked in shirt, and a nice belt. He looked very nice.
I'm aware that a man can look nice without a tucked in shirt, but if it is tucked in, it looks intended, and it looks as though the man has a clue.
I don't like tucking in shirts for any reason. One reason I avoid fancy looking belts/buckles. Uniform or not. Sometimes it can look good, but I still do not like it.
I tuck my wolf howling at the moon t-shirt into my sweatpants all.day.long.
I'm firmly in the camp that men do not wear "designer" t-shirts anyway. That's something boys do. When you grow up, part of it learning how to dress like an adult. There's obviously different subcultures, but that's really pretty universal. Whether it be football jerseys that are two sizes two large or prepster madras button downs, men just do not wear designer t-shirts. There's a bit of a resurgence in tucked t-shirts as trendy fashion (outside of paired with some cowboy boots and a giant belt buckle where it's always been in) but like the cowboy look the tucked t-shirts tend to not be designer. Or if they are designer at least understated. Obviously not to say don't wear t-shirts but when you're trying to do a bit more than slouching around in your favorite pair of jeans and a t-shirt while still being casual... designer t-shirt is basically not the way to go.

Where are you from where it's universal that men don't wear t-shirts and jeans?
