Shirt issue. Yeah, that’s an issue. For socials, I usually wear long-sleeved shirts with buttons plus low waist jeans. I DON’T pull out shirt because of esthetics and on request of my partner (well, you learned this cuban motion, so don’t cover your bums with rag). Problem is that every time I dance, do the spins etc., shirts just pull out in random way. It won’t stop me dancing, but after I always end up walking down dancefloor putting my shirt into jeans. Is there any trick to avoid it? I have a quite tight belt, but it doesn’t helps. I think it’s because I’m thin, my legs are very long and my hips are comparable to Mick Jagger’s ones ;). Do You have any ideas how to deal with this? Plus, are You familiar with this issue, guys?

Don’t tuck your shirts in. Shirts you buy these days, except for the office shirts, are made to be worn over your pants. Same with t-shirts, etc. Nothing is tucked, except the undershirts, if you chose to wear one under your shirt.

Otherwise, I would maybe suggest pant-suspenders, they can look good; and then loosen your pants a bit.

Hey, thanks for tip. This is a shirt to tuck in, I know what is the difference among them… Well guess I will have to solve it somehow. Thanks for tips.

Sometimes I think they should put these shower curtain weights to them. Would solve everything.

How about you safely-pin it to the inside of your pants before you leave?

Try Velcro.

Actually, the velcro sounds like an excellent suggestion.
A local sewing supply store should be able to provide the raw material quite cheaply.
Figuring out exactly where to sew the parts a) on the shirt tails, and b) on the inside lining of the pants, will be the work.
Your local dry cleaners may have someone handy with a sewing machine, in case you can’t do this kind of work. If the pants have a lining to which the velcro part can be sewed, you might try it yourself. If the pants do not have a lining, you will probably want to leave this sewing to the professionals!
