My wardrobe is way too big (In fact 2 wardrobes full so I am not going to even try to list!) and I have lost a couple stone in weight during the last year (change of diet), so a lot of the clothes no longer even fit me. I think time for a major clear out!
As I'm still loosing weight, I am currently only buying new clothes (to fit) as I actually need them. Some stuff I bought at the beginning of the year is already too big!

Maybe you shouldn't expect us to conform to your fantasies, Wade.the elephant wrote:No one seems to have a leather jerkin or a codpiece. And chain mail - where is all the chain mail? Come on, people!
Boxers - no tighty whities are my replacement for a codpiece. I'm thinking comfort these days.
I may consider a steel liner for my tubenet thong.
As a retiree, I own work clothes, painting clothes and sailing gear.
Two pair of khaki long pants are for formal gigs and church.
Usually only wear socks in the winter but save the tan ones for formal gigs.
Cargo shorts for daily wear and three pair of Wrangler jeans are enough for our short winter.
I have so many Hawaiian flowerdy shirts since the family sees me gig in them and gets me them for presents.
I own long and short sleeve "Saints" jerseys for Sundays and the rare occasions when we lose a Monday night game.
A few ties and three sport coats are for weddings and funerals.
The moths ate my only blue pin stripe suit and I am not planning on replacing it.

Re: How big is your wardrobe?
Since I'm basically the same size I was in college, I still have stuff from almost that far back. T shirts in particular...I have one that I bought while at IU.
So stuff has to wear out before I throw it out, but especially T shirts I buy one if I like it. So I have quite a pile of those. I'm not hard on clothes but do get bored wearing the same stuff year in and year out, so they have accumulated over time.
I'm with Bloke on the thrift stores....I find more selection there than I find at regular stores. Go figure, but who cares? It's cheap and I can wash it before I wear it if I'm worried about it. Even shoes I can often find at thrift stores; my Vasque hiking boots I got at a thrift store, apparently brand new, for $7. Can't beat that.
