    I might wear camo cargo shorts when I'm on the boat fishing. Other than that, no. I do occasionally wear hunting related stuff that doesn't have camo on it. I've got a black flexfit BH.com hat that I might wear occasionally. You won't ever see me wearing a camo shirt or jacket though in public unless I'm at camp for the week and stopping at a store or something.

    Maybe people need to be a little slower to judge people by their looks. I'm sure I do! There are plenty of things that turn me off on people ahead of wearing camo though. Pants line below the underwear line, neck tattoo's, grown men with their tongue pierced, gauges, big women in spandex, wearing a hoodie w. the hood up when it's above 40 degrees, gold front teeth, ball caps w. out the brim curved and turned to the side, stocking caps when it's warm out, bow ties, popped collars. I'm sure there are others.

    This sounds like a "state Farm" commercial, and one of the best I might add, "what are you wearing Jake, from state farm?" :)

    I have nothing against those who wear camo in public. Why would I care what others choose to wear?

    I personally would rather wear non camo clothing when I'm not hunting...not because of what others might think of me...I just have plenty of other clothing which I believe looks better than camo

    Besides, I buy camo for hunting...period...I don't even wear it in the car on the way to a hunt

    We need to track down some camo Toms' for Hook... :tu:

    You can wrap a diamond in camo... still a diamond
    Put a turd in a 3 piece.... still a turd

    That being said, I dress up daily for work (against my will) dress shirt, dockers, etc. If I am headed off to the city with the family I dress appropriately, However 90% of the time if I am not at work you will find me rockin the camo hat, possibly an old camo T-shirt minus the sleeves, camo cargos whatever. That's status quo in my lil hick town. Hell just the other day I went into my bank to sign some papers and my banker had a realtree logo on his shirt. I love my lil town!!!

    Oh, and I have two seperate camo accounts... huntin camo and casual camo they do not mix lol

    I can't wait to wear my three piece suit to derby and laugh at the guys in camo and cutoffs.

    It will help me feel better about myself for sure.

    The title of this thread should have been; " Let's see how many times we can reference the word 'camo' ".

    Well its quite obvious. The majority of bowhunters don't drink yuppy beer and wear Toms...

    Its no different then going to a NASCAR site and supporting Jeff Gordon. Unpopular opinion.
