Hi all,
I am just wondering if anyone has worn the UNTUCKit brand shirt. Curious to know if they are long enough to cover a colostomy bag. My husband does not always like to tuck in his shirts and then have to tuck in the bag and thought this might be an option. Don't know how pricey they are either.
Thanks

Several male members have mentioned wearing a lightly compressive Armour brand T-shirt/undershirt as a means of flattening the profile of the pouch.

Re: UNTUCKit shirt brand?
I looked these up as I had never heard of them. They look to be about 3 inches shorter than a dress shirt with the tail bottom. Did you mean your DH wants to wear the bag outside his pants? If so, looks like the drainable bags would show at the bottom. The closed end bags might not show. And as to the price? They are about $98 a shirt so yeah pricey.

Re: UNTUCKit shirt brand?
I just recently bought two.
Yes they are pricey but they are well made shirts and will last forever!
I have an ileo but I tuck it in my jeans. I wear a band also. I don't let it (the bag) hang outside of anything I wear.
For me the shirts are perfect.
They are nice shirts and look good. If you get the tall slim they are longer in length and in the sleeves.
I not only buy them for the reason of keeping them untucked but because my arms bruise easily so I get long sleeve shirts.
I like them because being older and I just wear jeans I want to look halfway decent. And these look nice. I've only had a couple shirts a month or so and have gotten comments from relatives how nice they look.
I was wesring long sleeve under armour heat gear shirts but after awhile.... well they don't look "grownup".
You can order one and if you don't. Like it they are super good at returns. No questions.
I like them. Alot. Perfect for me and what I have.
They are kinda like a dress shirt for casual wear.
Look for sales they have. On top of that I got 20 % off my first order. They are well made shirts.

They don't know it(u tuckit) but they made the perfect shirt for people with ileos!

Re: UNTUCKit shirt brand?
Have one and love it. I wear a stealth belt so no issue with bag showing. Don’t think it would show regardless.

I got what I paid for.
They don't ballon on the backside. More like tailered to stay straight.
I like that

Re: UNTUCKit shirt brand?
I don't have one of these shirts, but I don't tuck in any of my other shirts either. If I do come upon a situation where I need to have it tucked in, as mentioned, I have multiple sweater vest options to wear over the tucked in shirt. I don't tuck in the tail of my pouch when I'm at home, but out in public, the tail stays tucked into the waist band, or I'll have my abdominal binder (for my hernia) or an Under Armour compression shirt.
