    Or you could just change it to "Clothes & Threads" and we could all post sweet ancient clothes and other stylish gear.

    I've always loved what a fancy lad Constantius II is on this coin with his daper duds:

    ....and we all know Probus had the most style of any of the emperors. Prove me wrong... you can't.

    I will admit, I didn't see what was on the clothes until @Alegandron 's "crack-em out" comment".
    Good stuff @TIF :p

    I think @paddyman98 has a pretty good coin-related shirt as well.

    Little known fact: Marvel’s first avenger wasn’t actually Captain America. It was Arsakes Man some two thousand-plus years earlier. (He’s seen here on the reverse of a Phraataces tet). He wore baggy pants, had a puffy shirt two millennium before Seinfeld wore one, and he also had a cool cape, and – like MCU’s Mantis – he also had antennae, only his protruded from the back of his head, which even his friends admitted was just weird. As depicted here, he would appease supervillains by offering them a nifty new composite bow from his secret workshop. The strategy worked well for hundreds of years until he met his match in the evil Ardashir, a powerful villain with a big Infinity Stone on his head. True story.

    Great thread for one which was a delete request. Sadly I don't think I have much in the way of interesting garbs on my coins. Here is a great hat, though, Tyche of Antoninus Pius wearing a Carmen Miranda style head thing.
