before it was kinda refreshingly simple, but has the black mock turtleneck with jeans ensemble outlived its usefulness? it just looks rather 1998-1999. what are some other ways in which steve could dress that still shows his stevenessness yet isn't dated?

I think that Steve looks sharp in his turtleneck and jeans. It is his signature.

I have always thought about buying stuff like that too and just wearing the same basic thing every day.

I could do that and be just content.

I started watching the stream and thought, "Huh...still the black turtle neck...I wonder if he has a stockpile of them just in case they aren't made anymore."

I think it's time for a new signature look, still basic and classic, but updated.

(don't ask me what exactly...I have a hard enough time dressing myself for work everyday and trying not to look too much like a dork)

If he changed what he wore after everyone got so used to it it would distract from the products he was showing.

The man likes to do weird things with dress. Let him be. He is an ex hippy and we should all just be happy he doesn`t come out smoking a joint and trying to get everyone to hold hands.

Why would anyone care what he wears?
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

He has 15,000 sets. You want him to just throw them out?

He could donate them to needy children in Tanzania. All of the Tanzanian children would run around looking like little Steves, and Steve could finally get some updated dress!

I like the simple look. Most people think black turtleneck when they think MWSF... changing it wouldn't really serve much of a purpose.
