How do you feel your soldiers dress in civilian clothing?

From what I have heard, and noticed, there are soldiers out there with "unique" wardrobes. I came across this resource with a few tips in how to dress in civilian clothing for those of us who are fashion challenged.

One of my favorite past times is seeing how my Soldiers dress (and peers for that matter). It really gives some insight on their personalities and what they do on their off time.

Thanks for the share, I know I could use some tips too!

Unique is OK with me, as long as it's not vulgar or overly outrageous (such as dressing in flip-flops and a light coat of gun oil!! LOL!)

I always take issue with the direction for attire during days off/weekends. I work outside and/or on vehicles at home a lot, and my attire is dirty shorts, shirt with sleeves cut off, and usually vibram toe shoes. Do I need to shower, shave, and change into something "respectable" to drive to the auto parts store to drop off used oil or to Home Depot to pick up new thread for my weed whacker? Once I'm dirty and intend to stay working dirty, I stay dirty until the job is done.
