    Is this the official uniform for male UCD students, or what? I have just started in UCD and the place seems to be awash with them.

    Pat Patterson sells them, but the daring can find free ones in the treasure chest at the bottom of the secret lake.

    For all the stick D4s get they do pick the most comfortable clothes. Honestly. I'm not a hoody guy, but Caterburys are savage, and although I haven't worn them in like 4 years, dubes are pretty good too.

    If you're a male UCD student and not fat, and wearing Abercrombie & Fitch or Canterbury tracksuits you're in the wrong college and should apply quickly for a transfer to DCU.

    What would you prefer them to wear?

    Does it bother you?

    It is a bit weird that so many many people wear almost the exact same thing.

    No, I just tend to notice little patterns like this.

    Yeah those comfy clothes, youd have to be mad to wear them!

    Its not just UCD, everywhere lads in their late teens-early 20's wear hoodies and trackys.

    1) Yup, they look comfy. But if I saw all of my peers wearing them and only them, I would forego the comfort.

    2) Also true, but UCD has a much higher concentration, I find. Even when compared to other Unis I have visited. Just an observation.

    The UCD male regularly partakes in athletic ventures so thus must be attired accordingly. Our strikingly well endowed and beautifully maintained bodies are testament to this fact. Hoodys and tracksuit bottoms are therefore fulfilling a necessary function, i.e. we are always ready for a sporting activity

    I dont wear poncy expensive tracksuits like most of the D4's but when casually attired one can jump into a game of football if asked. I have played many a game and with UCD's vast playing fields there is always a bitta 5 a side going on.

    There is truth in what you say.

    Why not just wear shorts?

    I'm glad to see that the primary reason for attending university is being prioritised.

    I never said I was upset, Chuckster. Nor have I implied that. On reviewing the thread, I find my manner to be quite neutral. Perhaps the "upsetness" you see is merely a reflection on the screen?

    Yup, that's it. Don't get me started on the hair-dos.

    Ah now, I'm not angry. I like the term you used, though. Make the hair "surfer blonde" and the heads aren't far wrong. :)
