If you go on a date what do you wear, pictures please

It might be a preconception or a prejudice of mine since hip-hop culture hails from the U.S. and it seems to be fairly common to see people wearing flashy tracksuits or sportive clothes on a daily basis. I might be wrong though and it might be confined to certain urban tribes.

I very rarely see people in tracksuits here nowadays. In the 90.s and early 2000 it was another story, it was the hip hop culture which seems to decreased greatly since then. Most people wear it are trainers or sportsmen.

It's unheard of. Unless somebody very ghetto Hispanic associated with drugs. Honestly I never seen it in person, especially on dates.

Depends on your cultural background. Wearing a tracksuit on a date in Portugal, Spain, Italy or France is for the most part not acceptable unless you are from a specific subculture dating someone who is into that subculture (like hip-hop for example). Personally I wouldn't ever wear a tracksuit in public, let alone on a date. Most women might find you sloppy and you are more prone to be judged by others. But like I said it depends on your cultural background, if you are from the U.S. or some historical working class borough of London it might be acceptable (?), whereas I find it super tacky.

At home I wear mostly tracksuit or if go for a walk or casual activity but not in restaurants or movie theaters

For me it depends on where I go on a date and with whom and what we do. If it is a restaurant, or theatres probably with button up shirt and jeans. But if it is just a walk I could be also just in track suit or sporty in shorts and polo shirt.

Here I was invited to Bajram, the muslim feast. For normal I guess I would dress like this also for a date.

I would dress the way I always dress -- a person is either a slob or not a slob there is no middle ground :

It depends on the venue but generally speaking not a full blown suit, unless the situation calls for it, but rather business casual. It is summer still so that means either a light blue color sports coat etc.. or if I want to be fancy a seersucker one with either light grey wool dress slacks (pants) or chinos/khakis with either burgundy or black blucher/derby shoes (I reserve balmoral shoes for suits) and a silk tie. That is pretty much what I wear on a regular basis but changes somewhat based on the season.

I'm not taking a picture of myself just for this thread man so I'll use pictures of other people (this guys is wearing a cotton knit tie rather than silk tie):

OR something in black kind of like this

Damn , bro, what is this contest ? If so you lose even with my shitty selfy pic taking skills (that is not prole gape in the first picture it just that the way I am holding my hand/arm makes it seem like it for a second) :

Wearing a tie on a date may be stretching things a little be unless you are going to a formal event. Less is more sometimes and you don't really need to be so formal to look groomed and presentable on a date, in my opinion.

[Brás Garcia de Mascarenhas]

It also depends on your age group. A man on his 20's wearing a suit and tie on a date might look like he is "trying too hard", kinda over exaggerated unless that's how he normally dresses and feels comfortable with. Otherwise just face it, sooner or later she is going to find out that 99% of his wardrobe consists of Sci-Fi t-shirts

What I just posted, including my tie, is technically casual clothes. Formal would be black tie which people call a tux or tuxedo in between formality is are suits but a seersucker suit is less formal than standard business suits .

I repeat : chinos or khakis with a sports coat is casual wear, yes, even with a tie.
