Those check shirts are boring, as is any T shirt with some meaningless big logo from Topman, too many guys wear these and they just look rank average.
The general rule as a male in a club is don't look like a complete idiot. Trying to wear things that are a bit out of the ordinary or 'eyecatching' rarely works, usually it just makes you stand out for the wrong reasons. You want to wear stuff that allows you to blend in, but makes you look a bit classy. I think good advice for a younger male (student age) is try and dress in a way that makes you look slightly older than you are, I don't mean wearing a grandad cardigan and braces, I mean rather than wearing chavvy stuff, wear some smart jeans and a slightly more upmarket, but plain coloured, shirt. Some smart polos look good as well. On the whole though if you are unsure, a plain black or white t shirt with some smart jeans will look fine.
