January 5, 201115 yr Work: If it's a normal day, jeans or khakis, either a company golf-shirt or a casual button down. I switch between my steel-toed and non-protective-toe wellington boots depending on whether or not I have a site-visit or jobsite meeting that day. If I have a meeting with an owner/developer/architect, it's dress slacks or at least nice khakis, a dress shirt and dress shoes. If I have a building opening, there's a tie and jacket added to the meeting garb. Home: Jeans or cargo shorts, depending on the weather. Sometimes I'll go ahead and sport the casual button down all the same, but it's usually a nice t-shirt. Adidas "Adilette" sandals as long as it's not snowing or raining, otherwise, it's gym shoes in the spring/summer/fall, and and my wellingtons in the winter. Weddings/Funerals/Church: Dress slacks/shoes/shirt. If it's for a wedding, funeral, Christmas or Easter, add a tie and coat.
January 5, 201115 yr I call it "Max-Com." In other words, I dress for maximum comfort. No suits, no dressy clothes, no dressy shoes. When I wear crap like that, I feel like a clown and my claustrophobia goes into overdrive. Jeans (khaki-type shorts in summer) and T-shirts are preferred; but will go with the standard khakis and polo-type shirt for work if I have to be in the office for more than a couple hours. Gym shoes, work boots or plain-jane slip-on brown loafers for footwear.
January 5, 201115 yr Not being in high school I would feel very weird going into American Eagle. :lol:
January 5, 201115 yr Does anyone else shop vintage? I have gotten to where I get at least half of my clothes vintage (have always been a Goodwill T-shirt guy) and I've found a lot of good dress shirts, ties, and coats vintage. Well, I always called it shopping cheap, but if you say it's vintage, then YES...I shop vintage...and most of my clothes are "vintage".
January 5, 201115 yr Not being in high school I would feel very weird going into American Eagle. True, it is a younger store. But I'm only 22 so I figure I have another year or two of wearing it. I buy online so I don't have to go in there.
January 5, 201115 yr Jeans/jogging pants with hoodie/fleece, a beanie/ball cap, and running shoes/work boats in winter. Khaki shorts/basketball shorts, t-shirt, ball cap, and gym shoes in the summer. If I go into the office, nice khakis, polo/button down/thin sweater, and dress shoes. I won't spend over $25 on a single item of clothing for myself, other than shoes.
January 5, 201115 yr I don't have much of a style, so I guess I'd say laidback lol. To many fraternity/intramural champ shirts. Kohl's could be classified as my style as well haha.
January 5, 201115 yr I don't have much of a style, so I guess I'd say laidback lol. To many fraternity/intramural champ shirts. Kohl's could be classified as my style as well haha. Same here. However I do have to dress nice for work everyday which I don't mind at all.
January 5, 201115 yr Well, I always called it shopping cheap, but if you say it's vintage, then YES...I shop vintage...and most of my clothes are "vintage". Haha. We can call it that too---I have no issues with being called cheap.
January 5, 201115 yr True, it is a younger store. But I'm only 22 so I figure I have another year or two of wearing it. I buy online so I don't have to go in there. Agreed, I'm slowly moving away from it. I can't remember the last item I purchased from there, but I've taken the same size for the past 5 years or so, so I have quite a bit of AE wear in the wardrobe.
January 5, 201115 yr Required winter style for females attending Miami University: Ugg boots, spandex pants, North Face jacket. ...I don't know if they even bother with shirts under their North Face jackets, because they NEVER take them off.

We're about the same age I think, I don't think there is anything wrong with us wearing it right now. Now if we're still rocking AE five years from now...... might be time to move on. :thumb:
January 5, 201115 yr My style is College Sports Fan. Dillards Big and Tall, Men's Wearhouse, Bulls Heaven, Bulls Outfitters, USF Bookstore, UK Bookstore, and FootballFanatics.com are where I shop. Christmas gifts supply me with most of my gear for the year, but I supplement. The only time you'll catch me in a suit is when I'm on the road for business, off to see a play, or at a funeral. Most of the time I dress business casual and even then it may involve some kind of USF, UK, or MSU gear. I have USF, UK, and Morehead ties, cuff links, and tie clasps and pins to go along with my wardrobe of team dress shirts, polos, t-shirts, jerseys, sweats, shorts, jackets, hoodies, socks, underwear, and gym shoes. Of course there is always my BGP gear, too. Chicks dig the pink dress shirt, with a UK tie. Mrs. S loves the charcoal suit with the green dress shirt and the gold USF tie. I'm like Jim Shue, in that it's all about comfort, and in my case cost, too. When I'm at home, it's turn up the AC, take off the cloths. I wear USF or UK gym shorts and maybe a t-shirt, maybe not, and am footing my cloggs.
January 5, 201115 yr I see nothing wrong with that! Spandex pants are not unlike a car crash: There’s a good chance you won’t want to see what’s going on, but there is no chance you won't check it out as you pass by.
