I see nothing wrong with it. Who cares what others do or think?
If you think it’s s good idea go for it.
I have one of these “Corvette Racing” jackets.

I have an "M" t shirt that I wear quite a bit. Says nothing "BMW" just has the M logo on it. Kind of like the Jake symbol. See plenty of Porsche guys wearing hats/t shirts etc.

Wow pretty silly thread. I wear a C7 Grand Sport cap nearly everyday and haven't even taken delivery yet and yes I damn well intend to wear it while driving my GS or anytime I want.

I definitely fall into the "I don't care what other people think" camp, not only regarding Corvettes, but life in general.
I have a bunch of Corvette and Corvette-club related shirts, jackets, etc. I personally like them, but I certainly try not to go overboard because I don't want to be "that guy" who looks like a walking GM billboard.
Like mods, sometimes "less is more" when it comes to wearing Corvette gear. My wife bought me the Under Armor jacket below for Christmas. I wore it last month when I traveled to the west coast on business and I had three people strike up conversations about Corvettes which was funny because I forgot I was wearing the jacket and was taken by surprise.
I really like the jacket, primarily due to the chest smartphone pocket.
BTW - That's not me in the photo.

No lie...I have had 4-5 compliments on my C7 Piloti driving shoes from strangers.
To date, no compliments from strangers on my actual 2018 GS.

I bought my Corvette jacket off of E-Bay, lot cheaper then catalog store, plus free shipping and no taxes.

I have a CORVETTE fleece jacket that I really like and wear all the time. Quite soft and comfortable. I received it as a gift a few years ago.

My favorite Corvette piece of apparel that I own is this Corvette hoodie that I wore yesterday in 35 degree weather!

Your kidding, right? Tons of people wear clothing to signify or celebrate their interests...from sports, to music... to cars.
And I see a lot of Vette apparel out there!
I have 3 hats, 2 jackets, 2 hoodies, and several golf and t-shirts.
This is who we are! Let's show it off!

Ok so I just got my 2014 Z51 LT2 and love it. know i'm still in new corvette bliss mode but seriously considering buying a corvette jacket or shirt or something. Is it over the top silly to be in a corvette with a corvette jacket on? I would think not but please be honest... POLL: Do you wear corvette clothing?
Also if you do wear a corvette jacket any certain one (quality, price etc)?

My change in attire after Corvette convertible was long-sleeve T-shirts. I burned my arms pretty badly the first time out because I did not realize the top down would grab my right arm as bad as it did. That was the worst sunburn I'd had in a long time! Yeah, they say "Corvette" on them as I was on Route 66 at the time. I considered it a matter of self preservation.
