Pants
denim, Joggers, and Pants
John has two pairs of light-colored denim and a couple pairs of pants. Some of the pants still fit, some of them don’t, but they’re all dark gray or black. He needs more denim and some lighter pants.

Tops
Shirts, tees, and polos
John has an array of graphic concert tees, a couple blue and white button-downs, and black, white, and gray standard polos. His graphic tees are various colors and in good condition and very much his style, so he only needs some basic, plain tees, a colorful polo or two, and possibly some more interesting button-downs. It also became clear that John is down to experiment with texture and patterns.

Shorts
Denim and chinos
John has one pair of denim jorts that must’ve been the result of a dare. Thankfully, he gave them up without an argument, but he needs multiple pairs of shorts. I told him that if he could trust me, I’d even get him a new pair of denim shorts that wouldn’t cause strangers to cringe.

Outerwear
Jackets, Blazers, and sweaters
Since John showed some openness to texture and pattern, and he already had some standard blazers, jackets, and sweaters I thought this was the space for a little fun/play in his capsule.

Shoes
Casual and dress
John had a couple pairs of Chucks (low and hightop) in various colors and one black double monk strap dress shoe for important events. He was in need of a bit of shoe help, and he knew it, so he was also willing to spend a little more in this area.

Miscellaneous
Belts, Hats, etc.
John needed some basic accessories since he’d never really thought about them. This is an area that I told him to have in the back of his mind whenever he went shopping from now on so he could fill in gaps as they occurred to him.
