    Okay, What is the must-have clothing for each occasion. Pleasure driving? Meets? Track days?
    I have nothing...so enlighten me!

    1 or 2 Ferrari branded articles at once shows you are an enthusiast but not overkill IMO.

    Shirt and Shoes

    Jacket and Cap

    Tie and watch

    Cuff links and Tie

    Etc...

    Visit a Ferrari store in person if you have the chance , They have most of their products on display and it’s a lot easier to see what goes together and what doesn’t

    And most importantly, remember Italian sizes run small !

    GL !

    Like everything else in life just be yourself, dress the way that you like to, and don't try to "fit in."

    So, you never where any marque clothing when you go to meets or public car events? Maybe I'm just too new, but I would like to fit in!

    Tods driving shoes and a custom floor mat from Andrew Exoticare, and you're ready to enjoy the baller lifestyle. Word of advice though, a wise man told me that wearing socks with your Tods is a fashion infraction.
    Congrats on the new car...T

    Not knocking your decision. I just don't know what to expect. I'll need to attend a few to get a good feel.

    They used to have a really nice white long-sleeved shirt with button-down collar, with small embroidered Cavallino Rampante... but not any more. Too bad.

    I personally go for no branded clothing. The car is enough.

    I thought the "right" way was to wear an item or two when not with car but no items when with car

    Just joking .. no right thing to do .. just what makes you feel comfortable

    This but don't forget you can now justify the Ferrari key ring to put in the fruit bowl at wife swapping parties (if that's your thing) !!

    I have many Ferrari baseball caps, t-shirts, polos, jackets, sun glasses and 5 or so watches. I always wear at least a cap and shirt at events and car shows because I enjoy the brand and have since I was a kid. Caps have a benefit of keeping the sun out of your eyes as well. Plus it helps limit the question of who owns the Speciale <g>.

    Thanks, Kirk, that means a lot coming from you!

    OP...All things in moderation. It is possible to overdo it with branded gear.

    agree, I never wear any Ferrari gear at meetups, that's just me. But that said - I am happy for the man dressed head to toe in Ferrari gear, brings me joy to see the marque bring others happiness. Be you do what you like. As for the picture above, it's an F1 race in Japan. No different than guys painting themselves at sporting events...all in good fun!

    I will vouch for comfy shoes, how do you guys like the driving shoes compared to loafers? I believe the soles are the only difference.

    I think a tasteful shirt will do it. I have a nice polo that I will wear to FCA dinners, etc. Don't be "that guy". A guy that showed up at a car show with mainly American muscle, with his Maserati, wearing the matching shirt, hat, jacket, shoes, etc...all it did was scream *********, and nobody was interested.

    A lot of times, I will intentionally wear a Corvette shirt and Nascar hat while showing my Ferrari.
