I JUST MEANT when u get in a self def situation ur clothes can affect wht u do when u are in ur training gear

Then do no gi with pants on. and wrestling shoes.

Fighting with clothes on like a t-shirt will result in the t-shirt being ripped. If that
 
ive trained in blue jeans and a t shirt a quite a few times. my original dojo would make everyone come to class once a month in normal clothes to get used to the idea of moving with them on for self defense purposes. it makes some difference but not as much as some ppl mak it out to be.
 
Don't forget to put broken glass here and there on the mat and dig some lava pits to avoid.
 
I like to grapple in my PJ's...

Anyway Bruce Lee was a big advocate of training for all situations. Bare foot and w/shoes, in shorts or jeans, on mats and hard wook floors. So yeah I guess you could train like that. I just don't like to ruin my clothing for training purposes. I think between a bath robe (GI) and spandex w/shorts I cover most of my basis.
 
A tie would definitely mess your game up though and I have to wear one almost every day.

I just can't see myself getting in a fight at the office though...
