I bought a few henleys and will try them with my jackets. Gotta get away from black t-shirts for a while. So far my favorite is an indigo henley from Flag and Anthem. Very comfortable. Trouble with henleys is that they look much better untucked. But I have not yet seen a shirt that looks good untucked with a jacket. What to do, what to do?

I wear everything untucked. In the best case, I tuck some of it under the belt buckle at the front. If you don't like it, you just have to look away. lol

I think I can wear untucked anything with un zipped jacket, if I half zipped the jacket then I do the front tucking only , the rear untucked part to me looks cool.

I love the concept of a dress shirt and tie under a leather jacket. Some think it is pretentious, I don't. Not easy to pull off, though, I think you need a good lid for that, too.

I dig the 'dress shirt leather jacket' look. Jeff Goldblum knows how to pull it off.

 

[Will Zach]

Nice look, I think it works best with a Perfecto style jacket.

L01 is a nice looking jacket!

 

[Turnip]

Under the jacket yesterday. Today around 0°C, neither wind nor rain => No jacket necessary.

 

[Tom71]

Some Merino today

I am seriously considering getting some of these. Do you order in the same size as your Rymhart troyer?

I think the key is well tailored shirt and pants like Mark and Jeff show. Agree double rider looks good but i think a single works as well. Just not a mandarin collar.

Yes, I do, they run slightly tighter than the Troyer (regular sized) that way. At least on my fawn-like body…

Great, thanks! Suits me well. The Troyer in "L" is pretty roomy for me, but one size down is too tight...

Agreed on well fitted shirt and pants.

What's a mandarin collar?

 

[TLW '90]

No jacket in the summer.
T shirt under a leather jacket on a slightly warmer early fall or early spring day.
Henley and a flannel under leather denim or wool in the winter and colder fall days.
And I'll add a wool vest into the mix on extra cold days.

In my quest of wearing only one layer under a leather jacket during the NE US winter, I got a couple of River Driver henleys from LL Bean. This is cheating a little bit because these are 2 layers fused together, the inner moisture wicking layer and the outer wool/cotton/polyamide layer. I will report...

I wear all my shirts untucked but only wear short and long sleeve tees under my leather jackets. I make sure that they only hang no more than 2in below the hem. If they are slim fit the bottom of the shirts unusually stack on my hips preventing them from hanging too low.

Next spring/summer...

The River Driver henleys from LL Bean have been working for me when worn under leather jackets with quilted linings at 0 C (32F). I don't think they would have worked if the jackets had regular nylon linings, but with quilted linings they kept me warm as the only underlayer.
