Today we identify the Colorado Guy

The Colorado Guy has lived here at least 10 to 15 years and is easy to spot – they’ve acclimated to the laid back Colorado atmosphere and, they all wear the same damn clothes.

First off is The Shirt:

This shirt comes in many different colors ranging from tan, blue and tan. Sometimes it’s green.  Sometimes it has an island pattern on it, palm trees, flowers – that sort of thing.

It’s a button down shirt with a collar, so it could be formal or for business meetings and you will see it both tucked in and out but never buttoned all the way up. Normally, this shirt is purchased from an outdoorsy store but can also be purchased from Banana Republic.

Next – The Shorts:
