What are your sartorial guilty pleasures?

[CharlesB]

THings you like to wear that may not be cool, hip or necessarily vintage but you feel comfy in and don't care?

For me its my tan members only jacket

 

[metropd]

1.socks the color of my tie

2. Hermez cravats tied in eleborate bows under a cashmere sweater in the middle of summer

 

[scotrace]

Striped socks.

 

[Diamondback]

My 5.11 Tactical button-downs. In khaki, so I'm "vintage-inspired" and not "Mall Ninja"... They're well-tailored, they have good ventilation, solid pockets and concealed document-pockets--both "tactical" and "practical"...lol

I always am wearing goofy colored or patterned socks. They are just what my mom always bought me, I never had plain white socks. I never even thought it was weird until I was in college and people started pointing them out! Who cares, you don't really see socks anyway!

 

[Sefton]

I never feel guilty. Even in my Army Field jacket,wrinkled Bill's Khakis,plaid shirt,scuffed shoes and...sometimes;NO HAT!

Shorts

In the summer time when it is hot, hot, hot in the LA area, I like to wear shorts, A LOT! I usually have the ones that are hiking / similar to BDU shorts with about a dozen pockets. Since the sales office i work in is not air conditioned, shorts are the way to go. I like to wear the Cabelas short sleeved safari shirts so i get the Crocadile Hunter remark now and again, Crickey! AND after work I just might put on my Teva sandals too. When it gets hot, 95% of the time i'd rather be comfy than looking good.

Not really sartorial I guess but a guilty pleasure.

Stonewashed, baby's-b*tt-blue, frayed bottom jeans.
Cargo shorts in the warm months.
Klunky Merrell techno-nerd trail walkers, that go with nothing nice.

Nice Merrells. My last two pairs of hiking/working boots have been Merrells, though I've now got a pair of Eccos after having walked the Merrells into the ground. I prefer more support at the ankle, though.

If bib overalls are not hip or cool, then it must be bib overalls

Old band T-shirts from the early 90s!

Metallica
Pantera
Megadeth

All that sort of stuff. I was a music FREAK in my youth and I have a huge stash that I rotate and wear until they are unwearable.

No guilt, either

I just noticed you're out of King of Prussia. I worked out there before the move to the UK. How's my old stompin grounds

 

[BegintheBeguine]

Two pleasures, both silver.

Silver cowgirl boots with mesh shafts. Silver moccasin boots with tassels and cut-outs. Wore these last with a 1950s cocktail dress on Friday night. No one commented.
