Fratire is the mode of dress traditionally accepted by fraternities, especially prevalent in the south. The definition of successful fratire is "conservative". This generally means solid colored polo shirts (never with popped collars), oxford style button downs, khakis or dock shorts, traditional blazers, dock shoes, driving mocs or loafers, and d-ring or club belts. This kind of clothing will generally ensure full frat potential, however bleached or gelled hair or any kind of jewelery will overpower even the frattiest of fratire and make you look like a douche. In addition, true fratire must come from fine brands such as those below:\r\n\r\nPolo (the horse)\r\nBrooks Brothers (golden fleece)\r\nCole Haan\r\nVineyard Vines (the whale)\r\nSouthern Proper\r\nSperry\r\nLacoste (don't overdo it on this one - the crocodile)\r\nCosta del Mar\r\n(this isn't a comprehensive list, just the basics)\r\n\r\nAlso, one should never wear all of one brand. It screams "trying too hard"\r\n\r\nThings to avoid:\r\n\r\nAbercrombie and Fitch\r\nAmerican Eagle\r\nGap\r\nAeropostale\r\nCargo shorts\r\npuka shells\r\nflip flops\r\nnon-Costa sunglasses\r\njean shorts (jorts)\r\nanything trendy\r\nanything your forefathers would cringe at\n> Brother 1: (wearing vineyard vines dock shorts, a Brooks Brother polo, sperry top-siders, costas with croakies and a Polo D-ring belt)\n> Brother 2: Nice fratire man, we better get these GDIs outta here before they see you or–\n> GDI: (head explodes)\n
