    I wear camo occasionally, cargo shorts or a hat. it annoys my wife, almost as much as my carhart carpenter pants.

    No.

    It's a big day for me if I wear a shirt with more than one color on it or if I wear logo, much less camouflage.

    I usually just wear a black tee shirt.

    Unfortunately I work in a very politically charged industry (health insurance) and as much as I would l would love to advertise my lifestyle, it just isn't in the cards. If I am working around the house, yes.

    I wear a camo hat often. Either my bowhunting.com hat or one of my mathews which are half camo and half not.

    here in Florida I have my realtree max 4 swim shorts.

    Other than that, I have a ton of hunting shirts that I wear, but I rarely wear camo in public unless it's hunting season and I've come from the woods.

    I must admit, I live in very rural area where most everybody hunts so it's no big thing to see everybody decked out in camo

    I will wear a camo cap to town if it is a fast trip in to get something. Other then that... no. Usually jeans, button shirt and tennis shoes are what I wear when running around.

    My husband has a couple of woodland camo t-shirts he'll wear now and then. But other than that, no. He doesn't wear camo while hunting, just military surplus stuff he gets real cheap from Sportsman's Guide. Because of my size, I have to buy expensive camo stuff, but I don't wear it unless we're hunting.
