Reply To: Hat and Jacket at Chuck-E-Cheese???

My son learned in Yeshivah all his life, and then for two years in E”Y,and now every morning either with a chavrusah or on his own. He definitely was and is a Ben Torah, and virtually NEVER wore a black hat, except when in a neighborhood where it was awkward not to. If he wears “khakis and a polo shirt,” he acts with the same derech eretz and zrizus to do mitzvos and learn Torah, as when he is dressed up in his Shabbos suit.
