As the Twins season is just kicking into high gear, why not kick your game day style into high gear too! When heading to Target Field, you don't have to settle for the same tired t-shirt and jeans ensemble that seems to blend into the sea of spectators. Though you’re going to watch baseball pros do what they do best, in a rowdy, sun-soaked, and sometimes sweaty game, it doesn't mean you can't dress like a pro and shine like one too✨.

Layering Up:

Layering is key to adding depth, dimension, and some interest to your vintage-inspired outfit. Also perfect for Minnesota's ever changing weather, layers provide practicality for iffy weather.

Start with a Base: Begin with a simple base layer, like a fitted tank or t-shirt and add dimension with a vintage jacket or off-the-shoulder crew neck.
Layering: Experiment with layering a denim jacket or retro Twins jacket over your apparel to add some shape to your look. On cooler days, you can try an oversized white t-shirt underneath a crew neck or tee, that peeks out of the bottom, adding some definition.
Mixing textures: A mix of different textures and fabrics creates visual depth in your look. Try pairing a chunky knit sweater with classic Twins tee.
Play with Proportions: For balance and cohesion pair oversized tees and crewnecks with slim-fitting bottoms or try a baby tee and baggy jeans.

Confidence is Key:

Above all, wearing your vintage Twins apparel with confidence is the best look! Looking your very best in vintage clothing is all about feeling your very best in it too. Own your unique style and embrace the nostalgia of bygone eras with open arms. So strut your stuff into Target Field and let your love for the Minnesota Twins shine through in every outfit you wear. ⚾️✨😆
