Find a brand you like and know your sizing and watch for sales. The most important part is finding a good tailor who can make them fit you perfectly.

I grew up sifting through hand-me-downs, hoping to find some slightly too large guess or girbaud jeans so that I wouldn't have to wear the $8 rustlers my parents could afford.

With that being said, I'm still not comfortable wearing $98 pants. They had better never, ever wear out...

I usually go a Callaway polo (sometimes RL Polo, but the Callaway's are cooler and seem to last longer) and chinos.

Not every pair. I’ll have to look at the style I have.

The Brion’s are solid. I have 1 pair. I also have two pair of Columbia in that same style (cheaper cost) in brown and khaki. Also good choice but they must be ironed.

I have 4 pairs of the Zion’s in two colors.

I had to look this up. Is that what the kids call khaki pants these days?


Used to work at a clothing store and that’s what we called them. You can technically have navy chinos or other colors for example. Calling them navy khaki’s would be kind of contradictory I suppose.

Get a Sam's or Costco membership. They have presentable dress shirts for like 10 bucks apiece.

I don't really like working from home everyday.



I fricking hate it. My kids are grown and my wife works full time. So, from 8-5, I sit here by myself and talk to customers all day. It sucks. Not sure what my dog will do when I go back to work. I was out of town for a week earlier this year and the poor dude freaked out. Wife said he whined all the time and took a dump in the house every day.

Those don’t look bad and I may buy a pair to check them out.

That’s a bad sign though because me and fashion are not known to get along very well.

Guess chinos have been my go to.

Try on several brands. They all fit differently on me. I’ve been buying the same ones for 5+ years

Dude, I fricking get it. I’m in a new city, solo in an apartment. I can’t fricking stand it. I look forward to going to the grocery store in the evenings. I walk 15-20 miles a week to not go crazy staring at the walls. I go downtown and just look at buildings and can’t wait until the let me in one. Lol.

It’s weird because I know they’ll be a time that I’m cursing traffic and office bullshite, but that time is not now. I’m so ready to back.

Been working from home for almost one year to the day. My company just had a town hall Teams meeting, and a return to the office is not in the forseeable future, if ever. So to answer your question, I get my work clothing from the pajama store.

This would be a nightmare. I have coworkers that have been hired in the last year that I've never even seen. Not sure how they will ever figure out how to do their jobs with little training and zero mentoring.

I run 4 days a week. It truly helps. I'm in the best shape of my life right now.

Not me bro. The reason I went to work for my company in the first place is because the corporate HQ is less than 10 mins from my house. Our office building has other companies in it and they are all back. The gym in the building is open and I've been going twice a week just to do something different.

Same. We have lots of new people that I've never met. I went in one day last week and people were introducing themselves to me like I'm the new guy. I've been here 10 years

I work 4 miles from my house so driving in has never bothered me.
