Dress Code

[NickyHampton]

Hello!

I am joining the team and wanted to know the current dress code. Could one of you post it for me?
Thanks in advance!

 

[ShortTM]

Red top and khaki or blue jeans, though they prefer khaki. Oh, and closed toe shoes

 

[NickyHampton]

Thank you! Are there any restrictions to the tops or just need to be red?

Honestly it depends on the leadership at your store. Mike said it needs to be at least 50% red, though it can be any shade of red. Personally, I try to stay with a solid or near solid red. However, I do have some dark reds, red/pink-ish, and actual red. I would just suggest wearing something basic for a little while until you can get a feel for how other TMs dress

Shirts must have at least a cap sleeve, and can't have giant logos/words.

 

[HardlinesGuy]

Can’t go wrong with a red polo. Not too uptight, not too lax.

Welcome!

Who does? My STL wears jeans 4 out of 5 days a week, same with most of the ETLs and TLs. DTL wears khaki but other visits from BPs and directors they were wearing jeans lol

For the ETL role- Target Red and I recommend business casual attire. Don't get me wrong I've seen ETLS dress down but dress to impress since your new.

Our etl hr wears red shirts that say “slay” and “queen” on them.

Welcome!

Go to a Goodwill store or thrift store and buy one or two plain, totally red shirts to start with and wear them with jeans with no rips or holes in them. As others have posted, there can be great leeway with the dress code in stores that are even in the same district. Start with what I have suggested, after a few weeks you can then modify it as you see what is acceptable at your store.

Now that's quality leading by example.

 

[Target_serf]

In my store, they allow plaid shirts, as long as red is the predominant color. Personally, I prefer a pure red polo for warm weather, and a red sweater for cold weather.

 

[NickyHampton]

Thanks for the help and warm welcome everyone!!!!

Because our store has become so relaxed on the dress code (including the STL and District Leaders) with their burgundy tops and plaid shirts, I took a chance and wore our university's red jersey for a couple days and no one said anything. It's so crazy how a year ago that wouldn't have flown. I mostly did it because I really didn't have any clean other red shirts that I could justify wearing, but I'm going back to my polos and blouses tomorrow since I did laundry.

 

[busyzoningtoys]

My STL wears deliberately ripped/holey jeans lol

If you’re unloading truck or stocking, I highly recommend a darker red, like maroon to hide all the dirt and dust from the packaging boxes. We all look like a bunch of hobos by the end of a shift

Yep and I include SFS in that as well. We get just about as dirty picking and packing boxes.

This should go without saying but don't wear a shirt with a plunging neckline that goes to your belly button and no bra (you may laugh but legit had a new hire that thought this would fly -___- )

Also you must wear long pants unless you're cart attendant or pushing freight, then you have the option to wear shorts. No skirts.

I thought skirts were specifically allowed?

 

[Yetive]

They are.

We wear Jean's everyday

I'm a part timer, so I always wear jeans and rotate 2 shirts. One from bullseyeshop.com that just says says "Target" a bunch down the front, and one from Redbubble that has a pic of a walkie with "Hey LOD..." next to it.
