I am trying desperately hard to avoid wearing ANY ghetto, emo, punk clothing.

I want to get clothing that is not endorsed by anyone from one of those type of groups I mentioned. Is there any type of casual clothing progressive rockers like to wear? I want some shirts, pants, and shoes supporting progressive rock :)

Embroider your jeans.

 

Seek out the older prog bands direct selling teeshirts advertising 30 year old albums  - I had a teeshirt (up until 5 years ago) bought directly from Caravan with a repro of the artwork of The Land Of The Grey & Pink - my wife threw it out because of the dreadful pink fabric it was printed on.

One of my brothers looked long and hard for a teeshirt Jon Anderson wore  c1973 - God Bless Woolworths was the slogan. My other brother with more patience than I, embroidered Flashboneyes on his jeans to celebrate his favourite prog bands of that period.  

 I did attended a Deep Purple gig at the Royal Albert Hall in 1971 wearing suit, tie and a camelhair overcoat borrowed from my father  and sat 8 rows from the stage - I felt cool dressing differently from all those hippies around me.

Otherwise what you feel comfortable in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I prefer to be ready for any persons at odds with my tastes.

Why take chances?

i wear clothing.
though i suppose if you had to put it in a box i tend to
wear more "punk" clothing (hi-tops, pants with
buttons on them, band t, carry around my bag with
buttons on it and random stuff in it, spike belts, ect)
though
sometimes i dress with a nice sweater and pants.

here is a photo

I wear skate pants & shoes, and either a band t-shirt, shirt or rugby jersey. Go with that.

Also, always wear protection...

For some reason, I'm not surprised.

 

 I did buy an Allan Holdsworth shirt, though.

The only music related shirt I have is a very cool LedZep T-shirt, nothing more.
 
In general I like to wear normal jeans with t-shirt or polo shirts. When I'm wearing t-shirts I often wear a short-armed chemise over it, not buttoned up...
Mainly all the shirt stuff is dark colored and most of it even black.
 
So nothing special I guess...and that's what it ought to be...
