    if a nightclub lets in people wearing t-shirts with cardigans, its not worth going to

    Jeans/shirt/dubes wins

    Agree with the sentiment if a night club is going to let people in wearing t-shirts and cardigans its not worth going to but sailing shoes in a night club ffs :rolleyes:

    Dubes are the least fashionable and most pompous thing you could wear on a night out. Nobody under the the age of 40 should wear sailing shoes (unless you are on a boat) and especially not in a nightclub. Funny how dubes are only fashionble in Dublin and nowhere else in the world. Imagine P Diddy/Jay-Z/other nightclubbing celeb rolling up to a night in Miami/NYC/LA and stepping out of a limo in Dubes!!

    Bottom line, dubes are sh1t.

    I've notiiced a lot of the lads who come up to Dublin for college are into this whole shirt 'n' shoes deal. I'd only ever wear that for something formal.

    T-shirt, jeans, cool belt and decent pair of runners all the way.

    Decent pair of runners(Generally puma, asics, some nike and then the one you get in topman, river island etc.)

    Obv. don't turn up to up to club wearing something like this:

    Er - Formal would be a full suit, shirt n'shoes are smart-casual :)

    I think Dublin's one of the few places in the world where the majority of people don't see shirt and shoes as suitable clothes for going out.

    Definitely not true, one of the few places in Ireland maybe. Went interrailing last Summer, and every single place you go you'd spot irish people straight away, because they looked so out of place, looking as someone else said, "dressed by their mammies". You can definitely look as, if not a lot more, stylish wearing a very casual outfit than wearing a shirt and shoes.

    You're looking at the wrong shirts and shoes then I'm afraid.

    Have you gone clubbing in other cities at all? The equivalent of our clubs over there has a much more casual attire.

    If you went on a tourist buzz and went to "suggested nightclubs" perhaps. But if you go to places frequented by the people who live in the places themselves...things are far more casual. On the continent in particular. Sure, Americans wear shorts and runners out clubbing like.

    True that, we all went out wearing those flowery shorts and no one looked twice anywhere we went, bouncers or otherwise. My mate even wore flip flop to one place in Berlin.

    The best thing about T-shirts, runners etc, is you can just go frm college to a mates gaf to drink then on to a club, none of this going home to get changed malarky...

    Actually, I have gone - Quite a lot - I don't think we'd frequent the same clubs too often though :)

    Americans!? Shur they were shorts and jersey's inside in Copper Face Jacks :pac:

    Still doesn't mean I would...

    We was actually talking about this this evening - It's quite funny when you see a lady on her night out, after spending a solid chunk of the evening showering, make-up, picking out the right clothes and shoes for the night, etc.... And her boyfriend standing beside her in the same 'ironic' t-shirt, jeans and converse he was wearing yesterday morning, with trademark 'just out of bed' hair.

    Well what kind of clubs are you talking about?

    Well, most have something along the lines of;
    Dress code:

    Very Smart. No T-shirts, No loose jeans, No trainers.

    Which is either stated rather clearly, or you'll find out fast enough from the doormen. Am currently based in London btw.

    Musicwise - Everything from jazz to standard chart 'club music'.

    I've heard the bouncers on the Fabric door are ridiculously strict on dress code. All depends where you go really. The likes of Krystle here wouldnt let you near if you had runners and a tshirt on, but Id rather drink glue than spend a night in the company of people like that.

    Also depends on age group. The college nights out look as stepped away from "shoes and shirt" and in general decent runners and jeans are what most of the crowd you see will be wearing.
