    I don't usually give it much thought, but it is a little lame to wear a jersey in public if you're not going to a game, to workout, or to play a sport.

    I wear my Tmac Jersey at the pool. I like cause it gives good ventilation during hot days.

    Agree. A fewyears ago in Columbus I was astonished to see how many grown men were walking around in jorts and jerseys for the Texas-OSU game. Meanwhile, most of us from Texas were all wearing gameday polos with neatly pressed khaki shorts. What a culture clash.

    I have a Dream jersey but feel pretty stupid to wear it. So far I haven't worn it. I don't know what I should do with it. T-Shirt? UArmor? just seems weird

    My Big and Baggs jersey seem to be much more acceptable.

    Im okay with it if youre going to a game. I think you should always represent your team at the game.

    Without a doubt, I always wear my jersey for games. Walking around the street? Yeah, walking down the street with your jersey = homosaurus.

    Grown men walking around in jerseys when they aren't going to a game look ridiculous. I'm pretty sure the whole gangsta jersey look went out of style about 15 years ago.

    And this was more appropriate for a football game because...

    Sounds more appropriate for a day antiquing with the wifey. :)

    To put more of a focus on this thread, let's make it: "Grown men don't wear sports jerseys (even at or while watching a sporting even)".

    Grown men "do" wear sports jerseys...

    ... and they're called meatballs who probably resemble something close to this:

    I have jerseys that I wear all the time, but they are all football jerseys. I think they are extremely comfortable, which is a big reason I wear them all the time, especially during the summer and fall. You can call me what you want- it's all good! :) Somehow, someway, I'll get over it and find a way to sleep at night....
