Had the same pair of crocs since freshman year of college. House shoes, run to get the mail shoes, lake shoes, ya just can’t beat ‘em.
I had a pair of Bass Pro Shops knock offs that I wore for several, ten or more, years around the house and to the river/creek, etc. My wife gave them to our son a couple of years ago. I'm on my second pair of actual Crocs since, and I still am not happy about her giving them away.
In the crocs vs jerseys debate, it should be noted that generally speaking, you can guess far more about an adult wearing a jersey than you can someone who owns crocs.
imo, jerseys are okay as long as they aren't ridiculously oversized and the player is obscure. The only real rule though is that whoever is wearing them doesn't resemble circa 2009 Kevin Smith.
I am just interested: why jerseys are a no go (for some), but not <Insert Team> t-shirt/hat/sweatshirt/jacket?
I’m from Arkansas…South Arkansas originally. My Family lives near Cookeville now. I went to Walmart today, not proudly, but I was there. I was at a Walmart in Arkansas. I am not embarrassed but that’s quite the cliche. I would never wear Crocs and I have no respect for those that do. In my experience, overweight men with ponytails and an 1970’s model boat who brag about who they know 9 cans into a 12pk wear Crocs. I would never.
My actual point was a jersey with another man's name on your back over 50 yrs old. I also wasn't clear but was also referring to context. If you're going to a game or fantasy party cool. Anywhere else in public over the age of 50 is kind of sad. Especially with another man's name on it. A sweatshirt or polo or t shirt with the power T is always cool accept maybe in church or other fancier dress situations.
As someone who doesn’t live near any of my favorite teams anymore, I will sometimes wear a jersey around town/home on the first day of the season, or the playoffs. But generally agreed.
But why? Why is it lazy or stupid? When was this decided and by whom? It isn't pajamas, I don't sleep in a jersey. Why is it not appropriate in casual settings and a hoodie is? It confuses me as to why one is ok but another isn't .
think some of the opinions stem from seeing autograph hounds and almost every nfl fight involving the same looking dudes wearing jerseys.
Perhaps. And I will not get an answer other than "because" simply because that is the only answer one can give.
