Many times, I see people wear jeans & T-shirts to top-end restaurants (not the RCC) here in San Francisco. These places will be $100/person, people are there for their anniversary, and the dude next to you comes in with jeans and a metallica t-shirt (Yes, personally witnessed at Gary Danko!). It is just disrespectful to others when people look like they have recently emerged from the mountains without food, water, & showers for the past 3 weeks.

No carrot and celery sticks unless you tuck your shirt in.

Black/red 2xist Tank top, red short pants and shuffle product Red on a muscle guy.
That's how I roll in RCC.

Agreed. I want to be comfortable when traveling. That's why I wear what I wear. That's why I occasionally upgrade to or buy F/C. And yep, that's why I have an RCC membership.

When they upgrade the RCC, I'll upgrade my attire.

It's how you treat people, in spite of your first-glance, best-guess judgments, that raises people, and generally people in the Bay Area, I would agree, to a level I admire.
Or maybe I'm just cynical after watching the Oscar spectacle.

With all due respect, I doubt that you or anyone else, in the supercivilized Bay Area or anywhere else, can keep from making judgments about people based on what they wear. If you can't believe it, I think you're naive.

Here here...... After spending over $10k for every ticket the last thing I need is the "clothes police" when I go to the RCC or board the plane. Comfort is paramount....

If quality airlines give out pyjamas for F or C passengers, surely these can be worn in a RCC - just to remind everyone how the other half live....

There are a few exceptions, but for most of the domestic clubs, you must be appropriately dressed to consume packaged processed cheese, packaged cookies, and packaged pastries, all that are self-served and then eaten from a plastic plate with plastic forks, spoons, and knives, at dated, sometimes worn or torn furniture.
