How do wealthy men dress on the weekends?

[Anonymous]

Usually something comfortable.

This is a really asinine question. Unlike the olden times, there are many pathways to wealth nowadays. There are plenty of ordinary people in this region who have millions in their investment accounts, aka the millionaire next door. They dress like regular people on weekends.

Do you have a specific type of wealthy man in mind? Old money? Equity partner? Country club member?

Nothing to do with clothes, merely where they are. I assume everyone in my neighborhood coffee shop is rich because it's an expensive residential neighborhood, and no one there at 8 am is coming from out of the area.

Lol. My hedge fund husband wears quarter zips almost everyday of the week. His kind also love the fleece vest favored by Youngkin and Dollar Bill on Billions.

You can usually tell if they are well off, educated, suburban politically conservative. But that doesn’t mean they’re wealthy.

I have an acquaintance who is from one of the wealthiest families in the country. He wears a combination of casual high end clothes that do not have labels (I've never seen him in Gucci/Prada/LV/etc), Patagona/North Face fleece and vests, and old college sports and band tees.

My biglaw DH (UMC compared to the above) wears a lot of polos, sentimental t-shirts, knit quarter-zip sweaters, and jeans. Not hugely different from when he was a broke student, other than having a nicer watch.

Even an expensive car would not be an definite indicator

Could be in credit card debt, leasing

Ask casually if they have a family office.

the wealthiest guy I know shows up to his kids' soccer game looking like he is coming from a painting job. He drives a big truck to and later rolls up to his multi-million dollar house in McLean.

Designer dog and kid is good looking.

This obsession with "wealthy people" is just bizarre.

Things I've seen super rich people wear on the weekends include faded, ripped sweat pants with the TriDelt across the butt; baggy shorts, commando, and I wish I hadn't seen him; muddy riding clothes after a morning's hunting; regular old T shirts and jeans like everybody else.

I agree. Makes me think of “Talented Mr Ripley”

I live in Palo Alto and the tech bro millionaires often look like crap - they are pulling all nighters fixing code sometimes. Jeans, tech-branded fleece or t-shirt from a race they ran, sneakers.

Right? So transparent and ick. OP should just ask, how do I find a wealthy man when out in public?
