Is it weird to wear military style clothing if you were never in the military?
I kinda like that look. But I think it's kind of weird since I was NEVER in any branch of the military. I was just a spoiled college kid at that age. Not that I want to go around in full Desert Storm camo or anything like that, but I bought a couple of UnderArmor hoodies in khaki and camel with "tactical" patches, etc. And a pair of UA camo military style boots. And a shemagh, an Afghani neck scarf for men, worn during combat as well as non-combat, which a lot of the US troops took to wearing - keeps the dust out of your respiratory system (which ain't such a big issue in the wet, forested mid-West of the USA). This crap has sat in my closet for 2 years. Never been brave enough to wear it. ? |

Try it out for a day and see how it feels. You don't have to make a lifetime commitment. No one really cares what you wear anyway.

Dude, ***** what other people think. Do what makes you comfortable and happy. All you got is you right?
What I said was cliche, wasn't it? But prove me wrong. __________________ alive |

I worked with a friendly Vietnam Vet who would refer to the pockets on the sides of the legs as, "grenade bags." I thought it was sort of cool, but also gave me pause. I wondered if that was why so many guys came back with their legs missing from the knee down.
I don't know. OP, I think you have a good question. Quote:

I see no problems with what you described. I've seen people wearing "Harvard" hoodies and I'm pretty sure they've never been there. It just means people like it and think it's cool.
