I wear a wide brimmed straw hat before the match. During the match its a ball cap over a large bandanna French Foreign Legion style. I have been wearing cargo shorts since cargo shorts were a thing. Short sleeved shirt. No advertisements. (its easier the team shirt with no advertisements except the County, or a whicking T shirt). You forgot the most fashionable item for old fart shooters: wagon with chair, umbrella, mini cooler and water jugs. Sometimes a wet bar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1911 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 A ball cap because it helps from sunburns on my bald head and the glare from the sun. A knife because I've had one in my pocket for the past 22 years and I feel naked without it. Occasionally a shooting jersey because it is moisture wicking and helps with the sweat on a hot day. Cold days I'll wear a long sleeve under armor type shirt under a tshirt because shooting in a hoodie isn't really ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever considered some sort of wide-brimmed hat? Also, does the hoodie (or perhaps a crew-necked sweatshirt?) get in the way of your belt/holster?

I think I am going to start wearing a wide-brimmed hat as well... It's the CAS guys/gals that really get into the wagons/chairs. I know one squad that almost appears to be tailgating... Never seen a wet bar on the range though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the hoodie gets in the way of holster and mags. I'll wear it when I'm not shooting, but it goes away when I'm up to bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levellinebrad Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I generally wear a red silk thong with a pair of very thin white capris with old school jungle boots. Up top is almost always a pink mesh wife beater and a rhinestone studded leather doo-rag. Of course no outfit is complete without huge hoop earrings. I don’t wear gloves because it would cover my 3” sparkly nails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leather belt and holster and single stack gun with a comp and a dot?? lol Hey, I'm still using leather holsters for IPSC Classic (sorta Singlestack) and Revolver. Sometimes I go to the range with a pretty old school Bianchi leather holster. I've been thinking that "Old School Open" would be a good Division: singlestack, comps. Haven't decided if iron sights or tubular dots would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a guy who comes to ours. He has a motorized pull cart (read cart with wheels he put a motor assembly and handlebars on) that tows another cooler. He sits on the one and tows the other. I am jealous. It seems to be more an IDPA/ steel challenge thing than USPSA, but thats local conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stick Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 To play the part, you have to look the part! I wear the same jersey to each match. It has one logo on it. I wear it because I believe in the product on the shirt. As for the other pieces...Salomons, Tactical pants/shorts, Hat, knife. why yes I wear those also.

egd5 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 At least there's no fishing vests. I do have a shooting shirt with our local facegroup groups name on it "Gun Dudes" But it is kinda funny how most sports seem to evolve into similar fashions.

Why do you have to act rude/childish? I received a number of good inputs on my question and I appreciate it. Yet a handful just had to be rude/childish. Just why is that? This isn't AR15.com or CalGuns.net. BE has always (and I have been coming here for nearly 10 years) a place of learning and good information exchange. If you can't contribute to a specific thread, why not simply skip it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue with wide brimmed hats is that it limi9ts your hearing protection options somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
