“He [Pemulis] wore maroon paratrooper’s pants with green stovepipe
stripes down the sides. The pants’ cuffs were tucked into fuchsia socks
above ancient and radically uncool Clark’s Wallabies with dirty soles
of eraserish gum. He wore an orange fake-silk turtleneck under an
English-cut sportcoat in a purple-and-tan windowpane check. He wore
naval shoulder-braid at the level of ensign. He wore his yachting cap,
but with the bill bent up at a bumpkinish angle. He looked less
insolent than just extremely poorly dressed, really.”

—David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest, 1996.
