Anybody still wear dress pants/slacks to a job that allows casual wear (i.e. jeans/t-shirts)

[Joe Budden]

OP one of two things will happen to you

1. You show up well put together and management respects you for it.

2. They look at you as a try hard who thinks he can suck up to management by putting on some nice clothes.

I feel sorry for you desk job workers. Sounds like private catholic school

tomorrow is my 2nd day in the office and i want to look nice and make an impression

they are allowing us to dress casually (i.e. jeans, t-shirts, tennis shoes)

but my friend told me thats a set up and to still wear some nice looking dress pants

You're not being setup, wear what you feel comfortable in that adheres to the rules, I work in a place that has dress down Fridays and some dudes still turn up fully suited.

I did when I was in the office. I only dressed down on Friday's; I started that 13 months into the job, when I got full time. Why? I like the aesthetic and the morning ritual... and stylin in yts. I was one of 3 Black men in a space of over a hundred ppl. I low key changed the culture for a bit.... Alot of the new ppl started wearing ties more often cuz I had a new tie everyday.

Jeans and a hoodie

I work in insurance and only 1 out of 10 people who’s left that’s not working from home and gets no complaints.. we got people coming in with their jogging gear on

my company is laid back

The cargo wranglers from Walmart nice ass fukk .

U know they have different kinds right .

I’m talking about the taper fitted cargos they are slim fit and look nice ass shyt .


Edit *

I’m only speaking about the taper slim joints .

Yeah here they don’t have those or I don’t see em. I got some wrangler ones they tapered. Niiiiice. Got black unfitted ones and I need five more pair of them. Would wear every day

 

[ABlackMan]

I wore dockers on Fridays when I was in an office setting, I mean pretty much every day but yeah that was “casual attire”. In the kitchen on fridays we could do jeans but ill never understand how people do food service in jeans.

 

[Fletch]

Dark Jeans, Chinos, or 5 Pocket Chinos as the guy said above (5 pocket is not cargo, they are “dressier” pants in a style similar to most denim)

Dress Polo(tiny logo if any) or Casual Buttondown (just not overly crispy)

blazer or sport coat

smart casual sneaker (plain low profile), chelsea or lace up boot, loafers

If you over do it (3 piece suit or really any corporate looking suit) you’re probably going to look like a try hard suck up if everyone else is dressing down

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

Show up in Paco jeans and a throwback Bullets Jersey with a du rag, with a black and mild dangling out of your mouth. Don't buckle to white supremacy.

Wat race are u op ? It matters

 

[big bun]

I’m always dress slacked down. Other variations, as well. Very rare for me to dress down at the gig.

 

[Turbulent]

Wear dark jeans (navy or black) along with a blazer. You can always wear a casual shirt under so you have the option of taking off the blazer and rolling up the sleeves on the shirt for more casual look.

it's less to impress the office and more to show clients the utmost professional environment. i guess a lot of people don't have client/public facing positions

 

[Armchair Militant]

We’re allowed to wear jeans and “dress sneakers”.

I wear a polo/buttondown, slacks and dress shoes everyday. I’ve gotten comfortable dressing like this, so I don’t mind.

I do, but I noticed for some reason my potential partners/clients always just show up in Golf Shirts and Slacks, so I started dressing down a bit to make me seem more approachable. Like you said though it does have to with environment/type of work, but I’m assuming if the whole office is casual they probably aren’t dealing with many face to face deals.
