I dig Nike's stuff....but I'm a "plain jane" type that likes solid color dri-fit type polo for most game days.

I've had to size down to a Med with Nike..

 

This thread always cracks me up.

Nike needs to stop using so much black.  It is not a school color, and with few exceptions, it ruins any gear for me, especially when it is heavily featured.  

This is the correct take. The thing that separates UT unis from the other schools is our super clean burnt orange and white.  And there isn't a spec of black on it. A beautiful burnt orange shirt with black on it just ruins it. Orange Nike shoes with black on them are ruined.  C'mon this isn't difficult. Two colors. Burnt orange and white.

If you have to use a third color, grey is a much better alternative. Burnt orange and black are awful together, there's not enough contrast.

Agreed on the flat bills, but I'm a reformed prostitute on the structured hats. They just fit so much better. At least they do on my monster noggin.

Jesus christ ill spell it out for yall:

 

1) Nike always a solid choice. Cant really go wrong most of the time

2) Quit buying off brand burnt orange shit. Look for brands that are based in Texas (Texas Standard, Poncho, etc). Also, buy from brands that use officially licensed shit. Rhoback, Raised by Coyotes, Johnnie O, Burlebo all have the wicking polos that help in the heat, for example

3) For shoes, buy nike. The hey dudes and other shit posted on here is wack as fuck. Slip ons? Lol really?

4) Im going to get flak for this but 47 brand hats are mid AF. Made for the 45-65 demo. Go with hats like what Howler Bros just released, or Nike, 59, hell, even Branded Bills. Huckberry has a script Texas hat right now that looks pretty tight

Branded Bills hats are plasticky and the raised logo looks like a refrigerator magnet. Not my look

Any of those hats with cords look like Vietnam era stuff. Kind of cool if you can pull off the desert artist vibe (or just younger guys who are generally stylish and it fits their look), but silly on regular adults.

47 Brand works for me. Good quality, never in or out of style, just always look right. Fit my head well, too.

Big fan of Rhoback and Johnny O.

I’m almost 45 so maybe you’re right, but god damn are flat billed hats one of the dumbest looking pieces of clothing/hats that have ever existed.

Hey Dudes are basically Toms with a lot more money and Sydney Sweeney. They’re very, very popular with the youngs in the Western community. My wife loves them and wears them all the time. 
 

That said, I don’t see any reason to wear Texas sneakers to a game. Wear a deck shoe or a loafer like an adult with a job. Wear boots if it’s cold. 

While I like Rhoback and wear their stuff everyday, it’s gotten very popular with the olds. I’ve spotted some very prominent Texas citizens in their 70s wearing it. I’d probably buy a Johnnie O polo from the Co-Op if I needed a new shirt.

One thing that is even worse than regular flat billed hats are when people wear them with the hologram and/or bar code sticker still on it ... what am I missing?

It's to show they're not a knockoff. Of course, having to keep them on implies that you're the kind of person who might be suspected of wearing a knockoff hat.
