Hello fellow SFers,
I wonder if one has enough sprezz, he can pull off the plain t shirt or polo shirt and non-worsted (flannel for example) wool pants look? I mean I love jeans and chinos but I find them to be very ubiquitous (esp. jeans). Jeans has its roots in workwear and I think it is a bit overused. I feel like people used to wear more real pants/ trousers in the old times. So far I have restricted my J crew bowery wool pants to only ocbds and more formal dress shirts but wasn't 'dress shirt" has its root as an undergarment? Then so is t shirt, designed to be worn under the american WW2 military uniform. Difference is that t shirt is/was a casual undergarment and that more formal dress shirts are for lounge suits. However wearing t-shirt and a non worsted wool pants makes sense since I read that flannel, as well as cavalry twill pants has hunting/ military usage to it and therefore the style of t shirt and wool pants should be congruent.What is your thoughts on this fellas? How about polo shirt and odd wool pants?
