Which of the following do you not own?Underwear?Swimwear?Long pants?Shirts.The only one for me is underwear.I skipped sleepwear because I assumed no one on an nudist board would own any.Also omitted shorts because no one can be nude all of the time.
On second thought, it might be possible to only wear kilts and wraps and not own shorts or slacks.
Is there anyone who does this?
I do not possess a swim suit. I havent been swimming anywhere except our pool & local nudist resort for several years. That said, Im still in the working world so clothes are necessary. I do want to pare down the clothes and that process has begun but its going to take a while. I keep asking myself, where did all this stuff come from? That closet(s) is full!
I saw that your profile page says "retired...but not really". Did your need to wear clothes decrease? If so did you get rid of any?
I have way too much clothing, but I do have to coexist with textiles for most of my living. Now a lot of it is going unused at the moment with no going into an office, and I have one pair of pants I ordered before shutdown that I have yet to wear. My usual rule of thumb is to donate anything I havent worn in a year. Might not apply this year!
True, if people did that in the spring of 2021, a lot of them would have given away everything but a few sleep pants, shorts and t shirts.
I dont own any swimwear. The first time I went swimming nude, I realized that was the end of swimwear for me. If I have to wear something to swim, then I really dont want to do it. Soggy suits feel so unpleasant, clinging to the skin like a cold, wet second layer! I gave up on underwear for the same reason as swim suits. The material is so restricting and uncomfortable. On the rare occasions that I must wear a suit, like for weddings and funerals, I opt for a jockstrap. There's something about the texture of dress pants that makes me feel like I need a little something underneath in the front. I do own pants and shirts, but not in abundance. I absolutely hate spending money on clothing, period. Particularly in winter, I do need a few essentials. I can honestly say there are vast stretches of years between each time I purchase a piece of clothing. When I do, its always very basic attire, something on sale or inexpensive. I find that all I need are a handful of outfits, and when I have to dress, I simply wear them repeatedly. This approach leaves a LOT more room in the closet to store other truly necessary items. As others have expressed, it sure would be amazing to do away with ALL unnecessary clothes if I lived in an environment and climate that allowed for it. Still, I strive to keep it down to the bare essentials!
I agree that the material in suit pants is uncomfortable against my crotch. I went for about with just slacks and a blazer for dress occasionally son I didn't need any underwear. When our son got married, my wife and sister convinced me to buy a real suit, so I bought underwear to wear with it.
When I reduced my clothing supply my wife appropriated most of the empty space.
Although you didn't mention it I would assume that you don't have any sleepwear.
About how many pants, shorts and shirts do you have?
I don't own a swim suit, no underwear or socks. I have a hand full of shirts and shorts, but only a couple pair of long pants. I use pants when I'm cutting out blackberry bushes and when I go out in public when it's snowing sometimes.

Do you take advantage in warm weather of the fact that Oregon is relatively tolerant of public nudity?
There is just something about the blend of fabrics (some wool in good suits), that just isn't conducive to no underwear. Definitely no sleepwear. Sleeping in something is simply the sleep of the damned for me. Although when I did wear something to sleep (too many years ago to remember now), it was underwear (how ironic). I have about a weeks supply of clothes, i.e. a couple pairs of shorts, jeans, t-shirts, and shirts. Just about the amount I would need to take a trip that isn't clothing optional. Those trips do happen, although, wherever I am staying, I still sleep nude. I used to take something to sleep in, but now I just don't care.
Sleepwear is the only one I don't own! I've slept naked or in boxers since I was a teenager. Still spend most of my life clothed these days so the rest are very useful, but I'm hoping to be able to do some naked swims this year.

I believe that underwear is the most common choice of sleepwear for US males w
