The base­ball play­offs have started, foot­ball is enter­ing its 6th week, hockey had its opener and bas­ket­ball is about to begin. So if you need a sports fix, there’s plenty of good options right now. This past Sun­day I was watch­ing the Patri­ots and Bron­cos stage an epic bat­tle relax­ing on the sofa, pizza in one hand, beer in another. I was dis­tracted, how­ever, by the grotesque uni­forms adorned by the Bron­cos. Just brutal.

If play­ers could choose their own uni­forms, I’m sure they could come up with some good ideas. Well, that time hasn’t come yet but some of them sure know how to dress. So we’ll take a tour of some of the best dressed ath­letes and see what we can learn from them. Drum roll please.

First up is Tom Brady. He’s dressed casu­ally but this looks good, timely fash­ion for fall. Most impor­tantly, he looks comfortable.

After a night out keep­ing up with Gisele, it’s time to relax in a sharp dressed suit.

Next we have Dwayne Wade, my favorite baller on the court but lookn sharp here. This look takes confidence.

And he can bal­ance a casual look as well, still mak­ing a nice statement.

Ter­rell Owens is always a dis­trac­tion on the field, but he knows how to keep it together off the field.

David Beck­ham has prob­a­bly had some help from “Posh Spice” but he brings a per­sonal style mixed with fashion.

Soc­cer star Cris­tiano Ronaldo styles him­self in a pink polo and the bold belt buckle on snake­skin is fearless.

Lebron James is prob­a­bly the best dressed ath­lete I think. He com­bines great for­mal style with a fun look as well. Here’s to the king.

Finally, I wanted to give some old school recog­ni­tion to for­mer Dal­las Cow­boys head coach Tom Landry. Not sure if you’re famil­iar with what coaches wear these days, but they can learn from an icon.

And we don’t want to for­get all the ladies out there, so our best dressed female ath­lete goes to Anna Kournikova.

And in clos­ing, we leave you with a suit you wouldn’t want to wear, just a friendly reminder that Michael Irvin is not a fash­ion role model.

So those are some of the ath­letes we think can pro­vide guid­ance on style for your wardrobe, impress­ing the ladies and your oppo­nents, on the field or off. If you have any tips on who you think deserves men­tion, please let us know and share your thoughts!
