I guess in the South you don't want to look like you're skiiing, so instead you dress like you fish or are getting ready for gay sex by the 9th hole with your caddy.
Is this true?  Y'all are just so darned adorable.

I think perhaps the point of dressing in that manner is to imply that, hey, if I wanted to, I could be (insert cool sport name here), but I just don't want to be.
Like the guy across the street from us in my old neighborhood who bought one of those unfortunate-looking Hummers and would slow down to about 1 mile per hour when navigating the speed bumps. "Sure," he is saying, "I could drive up the side of a cliff or over the top of a herd of Miatas, but I just don't want to. But I could if I wanted to. Yep, I could."
