The Stuff You Won't Wear in Public...

Recommended Posts

Well, we obviously won't be hearing from Walt on this subject. There is nothing that he wouldn't wear in public....probably including nothing!
:D:D

Ouch! That last visual just hit me. Oooooooooo :o

I, like Walt, am shameless...fashion never made sense to me so I'll wear anything that I have that's not stiff yet.
My reality and yours are quite different.

I have a t-shirt from 1977 (when I was smaller, and T-shirts were even smaller) from when I was on the beer-bike team in college. It sits in my drawer, looking red and small :ph34r:

Whatever happened to the funny Abercrombie & Fitch T-shirt sayings? My fave that I actually bought was "Plays Well With Others".



Didn't you get the memo that said that wearing ridiculously overpriced and poorly constructed t-shirts is no longer the "in" thing?

As far as things that I won't wear in public... usually as long as it fits, is functional and doesn't have holes in embaressing places, I'll wear it.

I have some seriously, seriously offensive shirts that I love to wear around the house and at friends' houses, but I'd never wear 'em to the mall or anything.



There's a ToadSucker shirt with four frogs forming a 4 way canopy diamond that I probably wouldn't wear out in public. It's only appropriate for the DZ although there's nothing obscene about it. Whuffos just wouldn't understand.

First, it was my early college years.
Second, I definitely do not view $19 as expensive.:S The only thing cheaper is the 3 pack of Hanes grey T's I buy regularly at Target.:)Third, the only place I wore it "out" was the DZ, and a couple packer chicks nearly ripped it off me wanting it for themselves.:P

And last, Abercrombie & Fitch does not buy their wool & cotton from sheep mutilators.:)
Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

That does remind me ... I have two shirts that I love wearing on the dropzone (my Supersuckers "Motherfuckers be Trippin'" shirt, and my backwards-writing "You Fucking Rock" shirt) that I will occasionally find myself feeling awkward in outside of the dropzone. Then I realize what's the worst that can happen?:D:D:D

I have an extra-large t-shirt that the nice guys at Skydive Interlaken gave me. It's bright orange and HUGE. And it says "I did it in the Alps" on the back.

It has great memories. And as much as I love throwing stuff out, I can't bring myself to give away this t-shirt.

Come to think of it, the ducky fleece *would* be great for those winter jumps. :D

That jacket is not really bad on you from what we see in the photo..but if it says 'I"M CREW' on the back, I can see not wearing it in public. You can see that from space.

I wore this outfit on a boatride Saturday night. Boy did we have fun with THIS...other boats where sailing by and I was taking dares to 'keel haul' them or take off my bra and use it for an eyepatch...I didn't feel bad, I made fun of it myself but as soon as I got home I threw it in the 'dirty clothes' vowing never to mix these 2 pieces again.~~~April

Who here remembers the Co-ed Naked shirts? :D



Oooh, me! They were so HUGE when I was in college. I don't think I ever owned one, though ... :(

But hell, with CafePress and the like, how hard would it be for us to start making them?

Apparently we're not the only ones still wanting to wear these. We need someone creative to design them!
