Ride to Work Apparel
So, how many of you have a job that requires you to dress business casual? Being that it's such a broad term these days, I'm talking like Khakis and a polo. If you ride to workdaily, how do you keep your attire clean? Gear over? Change when you get to work? Maybe some don't even bother?

I dont 'yet' but prolly will have to wear something similar when I get a job in IT. But I plan on wearing as much gear as posible for my ride to work. I may leave the leather pants at home. But I'd prolly leave a pair of shoes at work and change from my riding boot there. Depends on the commute too, if I have to ride from here (Dalton) to say Atlanta, then I'll wear full gear for that 90+ mile trip esp in the nuthouse ATL traffic.

I kept a cut sock to go on the outside of my dress shoe (keep it clean from the shifter) and I always had an iron in my office to tidy up my wrinkled shirt (from my jacket). I also had a back-up "just-in-case" shirt and tie hanging in my office. Oh, I would place a towel on my desk to act as the ironing board.
Keep your tie (if you wear one) tucked in! I got to work one day and my tie was basically shredded from flapping in the wind. Hence the back-up tie.

I'm having troubles imagining a dress shoe with a sock over it... - Sounds dangerous
I rode in 2x so far- black slacks (NO protection there...) - Black boots (Barely even notice them compared to dress shoes), and Jacket over the top - no problems, other than cold legs from the thin pants...

I just wore a backpack with my work shoes in there and wore tennis shoes for the road then when I got to work I would just switch them out... I just wore my jacket over my shirt and tie every day no problems there... if wrinkles really bug you start having your dry cleaning delivered to the office then just change there
