You can get an appreciation for how vexing and commonplace the problem of ruffled, untucked shirts is in the military by the variety of products available as a solution. Manufactured by the Flex-Belt Company, the Hidden Tailor is a belting system designed to not only keep your shirt firmly tucked into place, but also provide extra support for ensuring trousers don’t slide down during the day. After all, “waistband rollover” and “shirt puff” aren’t caused only by shirts being pulled up and out of their tucked-in position; pants inching down during the day leads to the same unhappy appearance.
Simply place the Hidden Tailor over your shirt as its draped to its full extent, placing it just below your pants’ waistband, then stretch it a bit and fasten it with the quick-attach snap. The belt will keep your shirt from sliding upward, while the protruding “nubs” grip your pants and hold them firmly in place.
The Hidden Tailor shirt stay is made from natural materials for maximum comfort and breathability, and is especially useful for beltless trousers or slacks. It’s also effective for wearers whose pants are used to stow heavy items or for mounting for heavy items such as weapons or tools.
