    … they’re the American uniform at home and abroad. UPDATE: Just wanted to add what inspired this: And Far Away | Footwear that should be burned and buried The way American tourists dress drives me crazy. Khaki shorts, worn-out and drab-colored t-shirt (or shirt), and the infamous sandlas, often with socks. Damn. It’s as if this “uniform” comes stamped out with their visas.
