How to wear a cross chain necklace as a man
Choosing a cross chain necklace is one thing; wearing it well every day is another. Should it go under the shirt or over it? Can you keep it on at the gym? Can you wear it with another chain? This page answers those questions with the cross necklaces in this collection, all in stainless steel or titanium steel, each sold on its chain.
Under the shirt or over it
| Situation | Where the cross goes | Best pieces |
|---|---|---|
| Office, closed collar | Under the shirt | Small, smooth crosses on a 22" to 24" chain |
| Open collar, blazer | Just visible at the neckline | Slim Cross on a 22" Figaro chain |
| T-shirt, weekend | Over the shirt, mid-chest | Crosses of 4.5 cm and more |
| Church, family events | Over the shirt or tie | Crucifix or engraved prayer cross |
The Slim Cross Pendant Necklace (4.4 x 2.5 cm) is the most versatile: in 22" it shows at an open collar, in 24" it goes under a closed one. For a cross worn over a t-shirt, the Cross with Cable Inlay on its 22" chain sits on the upper chest.
Wearing a cross with other chains
A cross is usually the main piece, so build around it. Add one plain chain that is shorter, about 2" above the cross chain, and keep it thinner. Two pendants on two chains compete, so leave the second chain bare. Keep the same tone for both: silver-tone with silver-tone, gold-tone with gold-tone. For a plain chain to pair with your cross, see our men's thin chains.
At the gym, at the beach
Steel crosses can stay on in the shower, at the sea and in the pool. Rinse in clean water after salt water or chlorine and dry. During heavy training, many men tuck the cross under the shirt or take it off so it does not swing; a flat pendant on a shorter chain, like the Dog Tag Cross on its 22" (55 cm) chain, tends to swing less than a long cross. On gold-tone and black finishes, sweat, chlorine and perfume wear the plating over time.

FAQ
Should a man wear a cross outside his shirt?
It is a personal choice. Many men wear it under the shirt at work and over the shirt on weekends.
Can I wear a cross chain to the gym?
Yes. Steel handles sweat. Tuck it in or take it off for exercises where it could swing or catch.
Can I wear two chains with a cross?
Yes. Keep the second chain plain, thinner and about 2" shorter.
Do I need to take it off to sleep?
It is better to. Sleeping in a chain can tangle it and strain the clasp.
