Skate Pro Outfit

Bought the Skate Pro Outfit for G8F recently for a scene build of a park and realized that the only comparable outfit for male models is, well, Genesis 1 era "Urban Gear". It looks pretty shotty when put next to the Skate Pro Outfit to say the least. Would be nice to get an updated skate outfit for G8M/8.1 since that (at least here in California) that style has come back big-time. Loose t-shirts, loose-fit jeans or Dickies, and high socks.

    Dickies must mean something different in California to what it does to me in the UK. Last meaning I know for 'Dickie' is the false white shirt and bow tie used under a Jacket at a formal function. The thought of wearing that at a skater park - raises a chuckle, if nothing else!

    Those are dickeys. Dickies is a brand of work pants.

    Yeah, Gordig has it right. Dickies (as it is spelled) is a very common brand of work-wear in the US, whose pants have been associated with skateboarding (at least in California) for as long as I can remember. They have come back in vogue for the younger crowd, as has brands like Carhartt being co-opted for fashion purposes these days. You see a lot of skaters wearing it. I would almost call the style of pants "slacks" but that gives the wrong image in the mind, so calling it by the brand is the most accurate method.
