Agreed. It's difficult to find pants or jeans with a 36" inseam in stores. Online is a little better, but still not easy to find.

I’ll add me to this one. I’m a 31” waist with a 34” inseam. Apparently the clothing industry thinks those with 31” waist can only be 5’5” and below.

Chaps are always assless, no?

Women wearing bedroom slippers while out and about. If cost is an issue then pick up a pair of fip flops.

ETA- And I still think brown shoes do NOT go with blue suits. I know I’m in the minority, JMO.

Other than the old 70-80s leisure suits, I really don't have any wardrobe pet peeves.

But hell, my fashion headquarters is Tractor Supply, so it's not like I have alot of folks bothering me for fashion advice.

I’m not a fan of these newfangled clothes. I long for a day when this type of clothing comes back into style.

Quasi dude dresses with ruffles and bright red heels on boots. This puts today’s clothing to shame.

Rowing Blazers is one company that is actually trying to revive a more suave and deboner era of clothing.

For my personal clothes, one pet peeve is when I end up wearing a short sleeve undershirt whose sleeves are longer than my short sleeve outershirt.

It's sort of a tolerance stacking issue... Some outershirts (especially common on polo-style shirts) have slightly shorter sleeves. And some undershirts are made with slightly longer sleeves. Stack the two together, and you end up with your undershirt sticking out the bottom of the sleeves for a half-inch or so.

I'm sure most people who see it don't care, but it bugs me when it happens to me. And worst of all, you often don't discover it for 20+ minutes after you've gotten dressed, once the clothes have settled and shifted. You think it'll be fine, but then leave the house, and by the time you get where you're going, your undershirt sleeves decide to come out and say hi.

Those skinny dress pants paired with dress shoes with no socks

Camouflage is not a fashion statement.

I do have to fight the urge to slap the hat off folks wearing them indoors, especially in Church or a restaurant

LOL. Me too. Forgot about that peeve!

I got over that about ten minutes after ETSing. More pointless rules.

I might give you in church, but I'll not say anything as I don't really care.

Maybe the hat is covering up a big ole zit on a forehead, a nasty scar, or a bald spot. Who am I to demand they show it off?

You do what you do and I'll do what I do. I wear a ball cap about 90% of the time and if I choose to wear it indoors, well...I'm going to, while not caring one bit about what others might think.

Maybe its just me, but I never wear an undershirt with a polo pull over short sleeve shirt and very rarely with any sort of short sleeve.

What other people choose to wear doesn't bother me in the least.
What does bother me is ill fitting tee shirts and pants. I know most of this country is obese and want their clothes to drape a bit to hide their unhealthy bodies but for those of us who take care of ourselves it's getting harder to find correct fitting stuff.

Tucked in Tees with Jeans and a Belt can fuck right off with extreme prejudice.

Similarly, if you dress like a Best Buy floor person (Khakis and a tucked in Polo), I wretch for you inside.

And if you wear Crocs, buddy, I don't even know what to say.

I always do. Prevents sweat rings and deodorant stains on the outer shirt. And more importantly, provides a barrier between your concealed gun/mags and your skin.

Spandex, about .1% of the population can wear it well. Sadly there are far more that venture out in it.

Pants falling down, get a belt. If you can't afford one go Jethro and use a rope.
