Particularly since the weight loss, I think Buzz looks marvelous in this duds. Someone in his posse has impeccable taste. Maybe Mrs. Buzz, his clothier, or himself. Don't think I've ever seen him wear the same look twice, except for the shoes. A lot of dudes makin' 3 big ones still dress like schmucks.
Twas an excellent tribute to Al today, with the stylin' plaid jacket.
Nicely done, Buzz. :)

Buzz says he's a freak when he comes to his clothes. It's all him.
In an interview a couple of years ago, Buzz stated he gets new suits for the season from his tailor in Kansas City.
But he buys the shirt and tie in The Quon.
This isn't a discussion of how you like MUScoop disccusions about Buzz? Oops.

Gotta keep some of the dollars local.
If that jacket didn't say "70's GQ", I don't know what does.
Smoooooooooooove, I like that he has the mindset to honor Al, history, etc...

Anyone wearing size 54 Rick Majerus bell bottom plaid Farah Dad 'n Lad slacks?
Buzz has style. Love his outfits and his kicks. For a simple guy from a small town he sure has adapted to the increase in pay.

Yup. I've talked threads with him. Picks everything out himself. Loves Blue & Gold ties.
Thought that Buzz says he buys new suits, shirts, etc. local every week. He's a real clothes hound. Apparently got the money to burn since he doesn't seem to wear anything twice!
He needs better fitting shirts. They're billowy. Other than that he's looked sharp.

Could be an anti-sticking measure given how much the man sweats. I read somewhere he has an identical shirt in the locker room so he can change at the half.

What?!? You mean you don't have two of everything in your closet at home, too?
If the clothes don't fit, it doesn't matter what they look like. Time to find a better tailor.

After years of dark blue suits, white shirts and red ties I loved going back into the USAF. Only sartorial decision of the morning was what flight suit to pull out of the closet. I had about 8 green and 5 desert khaki bags, each with their own color schemed patches. Nomex never needed ironing. Life was simple.

Not to mention you could pee in your clothes, and no one would be the wiser.
Indeed, I envy the life... damn my 20/60 eyesight.

Actually there is a relief tube in the flight station that is a cup attached to a retractable hose. A favorite trick played by the maintenance guys on young Lt's is to cut the relief tube short so that the guy debriefs MX that, "the relief tube was too short..." It is amazing how many nuggets fall for this trick and they almost always realize what they just said immediately. I heard a CMSgt tell a red faced Lt, "Sir, we're good but that one is in God's hands!"
BTW, flight suits have two zippers in front so you can zip up or zip down...
