    jersey's are ok but try to keep it to sport venues.

    backwards hats...now there is no excuse for that (unless you are riding a motorcycle or something like that).

    That's conforming. Because there are other people doing the same thing. You are a nonconformist conformist.

    isn't khaki a color - not a style of shorts or pants?

    i have tons of cargo khaki shorts. the terms cargo and khaki are not mutually exclusive

    unless i'm just way off base here and have misunderstood the term "khaki" for 30 years...

    Oh Lawdy, please stop. You sound like all the old folk up here in Dallas that whine and b*tch every day about "That disrespectful Tony Romo, always wearing his hat back. He needs to wear his hat the way it was meant to be worn". AAAAAaaargh.
    If a guy is past the age of 40 or maybe even 35 then yeah it's a problem but if the guy is not close to receiving his AARP card and about to get his midlife crisis then I think it's A-OK.

    Shaud got it damn right, dudes need to stop checking out other dudes so often and talking about what the other person is wearing, leave that ish to the womens.

    Keep eating hot pockets and not exercising and you'll continue looking phat regardless of what you wear. ;)

    looks like someone wheres a backward hat :eek:

    I will give a guy a pass if he is in H.S. or in his early college days, but by their early 20's, hats should not be worn backwards unless it is worn so for functional purposes only (e.g. on a motorcycle..or a rapper).

    But hey, i'm just trying to help. If someone wants to look like a tool and wear their hat backwards, then be my guest.

    p.s. i have no idea why tomo romo was mentioned. nor did i mention anything about a backward hard being disrespectful...just that it's stupid looking and makes no sense at all.

    I understand what you mean, but I got no prob with a guy wearing it up till he gets to that midlife crisis period.
    I mentioned Romo cos the Dallas Morning news is always filled with letters from old folks b*tching at Romo for the way he wears his hat backwards.

    And your point is??? Get outta here with that ish.
    Wtf does that have to do with the number of threads being started on a daily basis about what guys can or can't wear.
    How bout we talk about what the ladies should wear.(preferably nothing always but that's another story).

    I think Jerseys look best on.... NBA players WHILE they're playing. I don't think they're made to be worn with t-shirts under them. It just looks weird.

    FWIW - I have "sports polo" shirts for the Texans and Astros too... but I feel like I get more awkward looks while wearing them.

    I was even asked if I was a coach once... I was wearing the Texans polo with khaki slacks and my Texans colored Reeboks, and a visor... after a round of golf.

    But again... to each his own, and ask me if I care.

    LOL! Yeah, all those guys at the UT football games with their tucked in sports polo and pressed khaki shorts / pants look exactly like high school athletic coaches!
