Business Shirts for Dudes with Highbeam Nipples

Yes this is similar topic but a very different question to this thread: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/832142

Years before covid I wore business shirts every day, during after covid there was no shirt wearing of any kind, oh ok maybe once or twice a year. Mainly due to deals on ozb, over the decades I have worn:
TM Lewin
Charles Tyrwhitt
Country Road
David Jones store brand, or maybe it was Sportscraft, nfi if there's a difference
MJ Bale
Peter Jackson
Scanlan Theodore
Hugo Boss
Calibre

Let us not speak of if, in the days of mi goreng diet, I have ever worn button down shirts from H&M, Politix or may god forgive me for uttering this word, Tarocash.

A very very small percentage of the above had shirts that didn't show my nipples pointing out/up, as if ready for launch. Some were better than others, Country Road was pretty decent at making me look like I have chiseled bigboy pecs especially on the gingham shirts, and CT was easily the best value per shirt and their non-iron was just amazing.

Please discuss and share your experiences for all highbeamers past present and emerging. Non highbeamers are welcome too, this is a safe space for all nipple shapes.

    Why not just wear an undershirt.

    • Nipple tape.

      • +8

        nipple pasties - preferably either the one that says 'f*** me' on it , or one in red with the decorative tassels - clockwise! anti clockwise!

        • i have been told that there is a tutorial on youtube and effectively all you need to do is raise one arm and bop up and down. and then swap arms and it spins the other way. or so i have been told

            Not me randomly doing the movement in an empty office on a slow Tuesday

      An option that is valid, although is extra effort in purchase cost (I look baggy if I wear my normal t shirts, so used uniqlo cotton shirts as they size a little small). Also extra laundry load.

      I generally wore undershirts in non Qld weather and raw dogged it, unless had reason not to, in Qld.

        what about just ..a normal singlet? bonds chesty or similar

        • +5

          full serious mate, chesty + most shirts, still highbeaming. I have diamond nipples

          • @esq: I wear airism shirts under my tops in Summer and heattech in the winter. Although I don't do it to hide my nips, just to hide the rug I have growing over the front side of my body.

          • +3

            @esq: You need to shine bright like a diamond and wear them with honour. Screw the haters.

  • +4

    or the other alternative, embrace the high beam

    where my dinnerplate sized pepperoni nip brothers at?!

    sure, helen in accounts and maybe brad in warehouse might be shocked or maybe a bit curious about it

      It is a core part of my identity now, next step is forming a community group and holding a bunnings snag sizzle to raise funds.

        Use them to assert dominance in the workplace. People's heads will explode as they wonder "Is he the weirdo for having visible nips or am I the weirdo for looking at them?". Must maintain strong eye contact with everyone at all times.

      • Is highbeam nipples like prominent nipples like similar when females breast feed

    OP you are strong, you are beautiful, you are brave. Allow your nips to be on display for the world to see

  • +4

    Easy solution, wear short shorts or free ball some track suit pants and distract the eyes away from your pointy pals.

    I'd buy a heavyweight cotton short in a pattern or darker colour from a Jermyn Street shirtmaker

    I've returned a white shirt from a Jermyn Street shirtmaker as it was like a wet t-shirt comp lol..

    Edit- found my post from 5 years ago- https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/407290
    no more Charles Tyrwhitt white shirts for me.

      This image will never leave me. sigh.

  • Just abandon the shirt all together and make the nips your identity.

  • Free the nip

  • Be grateful you dont have to wear $100 tshirt bras πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

    • The way my weight is going I may need the support a $100 bra affords

  • +2

    You want β€œeasy iron” shirts which do not conform to body shape but hold their own stiffer shape themselves.

    My preference is Next.com.au - shipped from UK in 7 days and reasonably priced.

    Options:

    • Cut them off and wear whatever you want.
    • Two-ply cotton e..g. Rhodes and Beckett from the past - don't know what quality is like now - they've changed ownership; Google for other offerings.
  • Move to a warmer climate?

    • You like em sweaty huh?

    It's rude to point…

    shirts with a pattern, in a slightly more relaxed fit?

    • +5

      A hawaiian shirt covered in pink salami. Gotcha.

      • +4

        Was thinking more like a check pattern, but maybe Lowe's is your jam! And hey at least you'd get comments on the salami, free harassment payout!!

        How about a shirt covered in nipples? Spot the real ones!

    • +1

      Get one of those early 2000s 3d magic eye print patterns maybe

      Like you know those pictures that look like a random mess hit as you cross your eyes and move it away from you you see a hidden picture?

      Then the hidden picture is just the guys nipple

    Its topics like these that keep me coming back to OzBargain

  • Padded bra

  • Cut holes in your shirt. Let the nipples breathe!

  • +1

    Nothing wrong with Politix or Tarocash. YD, on the other hand …

    Country Road and Sportscraft shirts are made from thicker material, and usually won't show your perky nipples

  • What about shirts for black hairy bull's eyes? πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

  • Let them fly. I'm sure the ladies get a kick out of it.

  • bra

  • hashtag freethenipple

    can you wear patterned shirts or darker colours? these usually shroud the mountain peaks
