tucking/keeping pants up as a chubby guy
Sigh. Tucking has proven to be a nightmare for me as someone who never used to tuck. I have love handles and a small gut, and pretty much no butt, so I’ve always worn pants way lower than they should be. I still pray for the victims of my constant showing buttcrack cause of this, but I digress.
So now that I’m trying to wear clothes correctly, I’m having a hard time keeping my pants up, which is exasperated when I am also tucking in an OCBD. Either I pull up pretty much around my belly button and look like Fred Murtz, belt tight af, but after a few movements, the pants start slipping, shirt starts untucking. Last week I had to walk away from a client after going under her desk to connect her Ethernet cable (I do IT support) because the entire backside of my shirt came untucked. It’s embarrassing and annoying and makes me never wanna tuck in again.
Any advice from some fellow love handle no butt havers? I’ve seen some recommendations online about suspenders but I wanna make sure I’m not missing some basic thing.

Suspenders under a light layer is probably the best option. Suspenders work super well and suspender buttons are really easy and cheap to add to any pair of pants
