Please post if you own less clothing than the list in the previous post.
While mine is not that small, I will post it to get things started.
1 suit jacket
2 dress slacks
2 cargo pants
1 sweat pants
3 swim suits
7 shorts
5 sleeveless shirts
14 t shirts
10 collared shirts
2 sweaters
2 sweat shirts
Bottoms are probably at my minimum, and may even need to add a pair or 2 of jeans when the weather gets cooler.
Don't really need that many shirts, but all of the tanks and ts and a few of the collared shirts have a message or logo of significance to me.
Interested in seeing how low we go before the posts stop!

Ordered two pair of long jeans now that weather is getting cooler.
Tossed one swimsuit and one pair of short cutoffs.
While volume of clothing increased, number did not.ReactReply - OL

a pair of trousers
a jacket
a pair of jeans
5 T shirts
4 sweaters
3 shirts
4 mini kilts, and

While Ollygrumps has significantly reduced his wardrobe, I have seen little change.
I am down 2 t shirts and one collared shirt since I first posted.
2 other t shrits are wearing out and will not be replaced when they are no longer fit to wear.
Still will have 2 or 3 more than I need, but will probably just wait for more to wear out and not replace them.
If I find that 1 pair of jeans is enough to get me through the winter, the other will go in the spring.
One thing I am considering doing is getting home exercise equipment and dropping my gym membership.
If I do, 3 tanks and 1 or 2 pair of shorts could go.ReactReply - TDTom DOriginal PosterOct 23, 2019[quote]I had about 50 garments and declared that I would reduce it to 25 if our prime minister got Brexit approved.

Do you intend to wear kilts whenever you can't be nude next summer? Any special plans for disposing of the three that will go soon? I know you have done some creative things to get rid of clothes in the past, and now that your supply is at a minimum, you won't have many opportunities in the future.ReactReply

One of the old shirts ripped around the neckline today.
Will probably cut it down to a gym tank and get rid of the one of those that I like the least.ReactReply - TDTom DOriginal PosterOct 25, 2019
T shirt cut and one string tank tossed.

Someone posted in a similar thread in the Nudist Wardrobe group that he had 17 items excluding footwear. Can anyone get below that?

To sum things up, my current count is in the mid 40s. Not extremely low, but well under half of what I had before I retired.

Realized today that I had hardly worn one of the shorts that I kept so they are now trashed.

If they are pants only that puts you at 22. If you tossed the underwear, it would leave you at 18 items (or 16). In any event, you are among the lowest.ReactReply

Realized that when I started this thread already had another similar thread that I had forgotten.

One of the few men I have encountered in a forum (not this one) who had an even smaller clothing supply than yours got rid of his dresser and took out his closet for more living space and kept his few remaining items on a shelf in the laundry room.ReactReply

Zipper on heavier hoodie broke one day and parka ripped badly the next.
Had to replace both but no increase in clothing count!ReactReply - TDTom DOriginal PosterMay 16, 2020[quote]I had about 50 garments and declared that I would reduce it to 25 if our prime minister got Brexit approved.

Have you had to replace anything with no increase in item count yet?ReactReply

I have none. Why would we need them?

Never thought about it.
Would it be too much effort to ask you to count everything and list by item so we can also get the count with and without?ReactReply - TDTom DOriginal PosterMay 17, 2020[quote]Can I ask the guys out there - how many pairs of men's underpants do you all have and their types - I love Jersey type boxer briefs and briefs.

You then have minimal unrestricted when you need to be covered but not really dressed.ReactReply

Someone posted on my retirement thread that when he retired he reduced his wardrobe to 1 pair slacks, 2 pair of shorts, 1 swimsuit, 1 pair of sandals and a few t-shirts. I suggested he post here also but he has not. Certainly among the smallest wardrobes.
