He doesn't like to think about clothes too much. Sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long sleeve casual shirts, think Izod/Nautica, also work well. I would hope not, some of my "Caribbean Shirts" cost as much as some of tuxs I've seen people wear...

Pcardad Posted October 2, 2023 #28 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Short sleeves meet the dress code - as long as the shirt has collar, you are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolebludger Posted October 3, 2023 #30 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Now, here’s another dress question that I don’t think has been asked before. This may not be covered in the published dress code. Men’s shoes in the evening? There are now popular men’s shoes that look like low cut sneakers, but the tops are leather. Are these acceptable on Regent in the evenings, if all else complies with the dress code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwn Posted October 3, 2023 #31 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Colored tennis shoes types have been accepted regularly in the dinning room. No shorts or jeans are the unaccepted dress forms. Slacks and collared shirt are the stated requirements. No mention of shoes. Though I have never noticed sandals and the only reason I noticed the red high tops was because of the Santa socks worn with them.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare fudge Posted October 3, 2023 #32 Share Posted October 3, 2023 We are on the Explorer at present en route to Japan in the pacific ocean, I can assure you there is no dress code whatsoever, or if there is its not enforced. We were in Pacific rim a few days ago, men walking in with sneakers and body warmer. Since then I have lost count of the amount of "scruffs" on this ship. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the guest demographics and the inability to very the medical need for special shoes, the staff aren't as concerned over footwear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pappy1022 Posted October 3, 2023 #37 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Having just getting off the Splendor, I would say that Regent’s biggest dress code issue is that men have a collared shirt. They care less about the shoes and the pants. I witnessed this first hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisevirgin24 Posted October 3, 2023 #38 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Sorry...what is a body warmer? A body warmer (or gillet/gilet) is a sleeveless jacket. I think it is known in the US as a vest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_dylaness Posted October 12, 2023 #41 Share Posted October 12, 2023 In all seriousness, we are going on a 16 night Regent sailing in January. Since we won't be too constrained with our luggage requirements on this trip, we are planning to "dress up" for what seem to be the 2 more formal evenings. On these nights, are more men wearing suits, or tuxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will see gentlemen wearing anything from shirt & slacks, jackets, suits or tuxedos. As @PhD-iva says the attire can vary depending on the location and vibe of the cruise and there are definitely more tuxedos to be seen at Christmas & New Year. Hope you have a fabulous cruise through the Panama Canal in January 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
