I wash my jeans like once a year
Washing jeans is a tough call bc doing so can ruin them over time but one year?? Need to check them for cultures. I use a jean wash The Laundress and wash them every couple of months or so depending on use. If my jeans sat in some NYC subway...yeah they are getting washed in short order.

Mine stay clean because I walk around with my kids feeding on anything that gets on them like those little fish that hangout with a shark

It's not a contest, but I have 85 dress shirts. Robert Graham is the shizzle, or whatever the kids say these days.

I just bought a Robert Graham golf shirt at a thrift store for $4 just to flip on eBay for a profit lol

You're one of those guys going through the thrift shop scanning everything and throwing the stuff in the cart when the scanner beeps, aren't you.

Haha no..but a few times per month I go out treasure hunting at thrift stores and if I find something way underpriced that I don't want to keep, i'll list it on eBay. I grew my savings by over $3K this past year and paid for some incurred medical bills (which is why I started) by doing it. It's a lot of fun. The Goodwill Outlet center (or Bins for short) are the best. It's just a bunch of random stuff from clothes to electronics thrown into giant blue bins and you pay by the LB...I think it's like a $1.69 a lb. It's stuff that either sat in Goodwill for too long or didn't meet their criteria. I usually spend around $20-25 and walk out with $150-200 worth of stuff..most of which I flip.

My office switched dress code to basically "dress for the ocassion" so when I actually need to go into the office I wear Jeans, and a Polo Shirt but essentially leave my hoodie on. Maybe twice a year I will need to wear Khakis and a dress shirt when we have large meetings or guests in.

I dont even know where my dress shoes are anymore.

No one is ever really in the office anymore so doesn;'t matter.

For the sake of my sanity, I'm going to assume everyone here only owns long sleeve dress shirts.

You wouldn't catch me dead in a short-sleeve dress shirt and tie, but this GIF was too perfect not to share.

Shorts are for any non-formal occasion when it's above 40 degrees.

Shorts are for 60-65 degrees and up. Any lower and you're that guy.

I'm fine with this as long as you actually are that guy and it fits you. I am not.

Shorts in the cold don't fit anyone, they just think it does and are oblivious to how ridiculous it looks :laugh:

I remember in HS people used to wear cut off sweatpants when we had gym. I had a pair of sky blue Yale sweatpants that I cut off but had really skinny legs back then and they were not really a form fit ...it was pretty bad and after getting razzed never attempted that style ever again. Funny how it was even a fashion trend at the time.

Unfortunately some people have skin conditions and they can't wear pants. They have to wear shorts. Sounds strange but knew a girl like that ....luckily she had nice legs anyway but people would make comments. Felt bad for her...
