What’s the ruling on going out in public with your SO in matching tracksuits?

There's no rules, do whatever you want. I think it's a big think in Japan. Osoroi my quick googling tells me. I mostly wear black and have mostly wound up with girls who wear black, it wasn't intentional, just #melb_things.

Don't. That's the ruling. We are not Japan or the US.

With the possible honorable exception of the wearing of Carlton Blacks. But this ONLY applies if you live in Carlton.

true, i see many couples wearing matching black and matching black trackies, it's perfectly ok here

Spoken as a true blue Carltonite. You might be able to get away with something similar in St Kilda, but the real Carltonites know the difference.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

it just has to be your everyday clothes, all of which are black anyway

Exactly! The whole point is to be same same only different.
