    Default What to wear ?

    Hi All

    Daft question maybe but what do you all wear when you are working ?
    I'm normally in jeans/trousers and t-shirts but was wondering whether its worth getting some polo shirts printed with my name on. A bit of advertising and it saves wearing my own clothes all the time.
    What does everyone else do please ?

    Me too Polo shirts, hoody or fleece, jeans and sketchers. Think I may be getting a bit predictable though. Didn't work yesterday so wore some normal clothes. everyone kept asking me if I was going for a job interview

    I wear T shirts printed with my logo and name of my setting.

    I got them from vista print, they are tumble drier-able but faded like mad with the very first wash so not overly impressed.

    I haven't tried them. Tend to go for v necks (crew necks make my chest look enormous ) but I would email Carole at Amaranth. She is really helpful and will give you an idea of whether you need to order smaller or larger than normal.

    I have polos as I don't have to iron them from Amarath and also a fleece which I live in! could really do with another as it only gets washed once a week I just wear jeans and either trainers or walking boots if I'm doing a lot of walking that day.

    I was just thinking I would go with the crew necks as not a big fan of polo necks.

    But then I read "I dont have to iron them" and suddenly I am thinking the polo necks might be better for me after all!!!

    I am going to invest in some and a hoody - my friend has some polo shirts and they look really good and professional.
