How you can put on? Recently I was in a metro. I saw a man who was put on a suit also held a cane, but his footwear didn't approach to this suit. I thought: "How people can put on?" :) Some time I can put on funny dress and hat, but when I see my reflection in a mirror I smile and take off this clothes. Can you put on improper each other clothes?

How you can wear this?

Recently, I was in the metro. I saw a man who was wearing a suit and also carried a cane, but his footwear didn't go with his suit. I thought: "How people can wear these things?" :) Sometimes I can put on a funny dress and hat, but when I see my reflection in a mirror I smile and take them off. Can you put on clothes that don't go together?

:-) very nice.

put on clothes = the action. For example, "Every morning I put on clothes."

wear [continuous] = the situation/state. For example, "I am wearing jeans and a t-shirt today." "Yesterday I was wearing a suit."

"My dress matches my shoes" = "My dress and shoes look good together."

 

Maybe this man likes comfortable shoes :-)

How can people dress like that?


Recently I was riding the Metro and saw a man who was wearing a suit and carrying a cane, but his casual footwear didn't match his business suit. I thought to myself: "How can people dress like that?" :) Sometimes I put on a funny dress and hat, but when I see my reflection in a mirror I smile and take them off. Can you people go out in public wearing clothes that don't match?

Over 30 years ago, there was a subway (metro) strike in New York City and many people had to walk much farther to work than usual. One thing women learned is that comfortable running shoes were much more practical then dress shoes (even pumps and flats!). So.. they began coming to work in their running shoes and kept three or four pairs of shoes at work so that, when they got to the office, they would put on the shoes that matched the outfit of the day. Men were much less likely to do this but I think the man in the photo is probably doing what women in NYC do every day. He probably has a pair of dress shoes at the office and he will change into them when he gets there. In the meantime, he'd rather look funny but be comfortable on the way to work.
