 Have you done an extreme wardrobe simplification, like Steve Jobs? How did it go? 
 if you get the “taxonomy” right, it flows… 
 Maybe not as extreme but I mostly dress like a bum 🤣 

It goes as you’d expect 
 😂 yeah. I’m on this train too. 
 Not yet.  My wife is fearful that when I retire my wardrobe will consist of one pair of shorts and I’ll walk around naked every time she says they need washing😂 
 no one needs more than 4 sets 
 Not aware of what his wardrobe was like. But I recently started shedding all low vibrational frequency fabrics clothing. Aiming to only leave linen, organic cotton, jeans, genuine leather, wool and hemp. It's definitely been simplifying and been wearing the same things over an dover again.  
 I have 7 pairs of gray convertible  pants, 7 black t-shirts, and 7 black polo shirts. I don't like wasting time choosing an outfit so I wear the same thing everyday. 

Is that what you mean by extreme? 
 Doing that since 15 years. feels great just to wear the same without thinking about that stuff. 
 asics (ofc) nimbus 👟, cargos, tees, kangaroo pocket hoodies , beanie/cap

 rather working on extreme wardrobe complexification tbh 
 I only buy new tshirts at concerts. I wear the same two shirts to work since I go in twice a week. Life is easy my dude. 
 Naturally gravitated to it but then I'm not CEO of a billion, let alone trillion, dollar company.  Black pants (different weights for the season), black polos (or varying shades of grey), black socks, black boots or shoes.  I have one suit for formal affairs. Oh, and a pair of Docs for semi formal affairs.  All that gets swapped regularly is underwear and socks. 
 yes, but i primarily focused on quality fabrics, sooo it was very pricey, and took a while to get all the basics i felt i needed (i like to dress pretty colorful). i’m more happy than ever because it’s so so so simple to get dressed every day, and laundry is pretty easy too now. 
✅ one less decision to make every day 
 Nah. Fuck that!
