Much of it cycling related (http://www.ebay.com/sch/zoomydu/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=). This is my LNIB/NWT stuff. Eventually I need to get around to taking photos of my overabundance of no-longer-worn jerseys and shorts to find new homes for them here. Either that or I need a new closet and dresser (am I the only one who has a sports-specific dresser...?).

Mine is a sports specific clostet. ;)
At least half the stuff hanging in my closet are jerseys, sad, but true. My DH is worse...he NEVER gets rid of jerseys, not even ones that no longer fit -- and probably has 1-2 jerseys/year he's gotten as part of the JDRF program, which he's in his 10th year of involvement with -- do the Math on that insanity. AND he has an entire small walk-in full of cycling stuff...and part of my larger walk-in.

We have a room just for sports stuff...including clothes! In fact a few rooms. We're crazy! Told hubby to demolish a no longer used shower in the powder room so we can put shelves in there instead. :rolleyes: Next project on our list.

Ha! I recently saw a neat idea for turning a closet into a mini library/reading nook...but who has a closet that they can get rid of like that?!

I have a tall plastic 5 drawer dresser for my sports clothing (most of it). It is stuffed, so I need to investigate other options. DH has one of his own in one of the extra bedrooms.

My workout clothes are in a 6 drawer tall dresser in my closet, aside from my bike jerseys, which I hang. Ikea, so it wasn't $$, but it works really well. I still have WAY too many danged socks, though. My funky kneehigh fixation is a bit of a problem, heh.

Mine are in this enormous art deco dresser that was the first piece of furniture I ever bought. Running stuff in the top drawer, cycling stuff in one side cabinet, event T-shirts in the other side cabinet, blankets in the bottom drawer.
I really should have that dresser restored, it's a beautiful solid oak waterfall top piece, but the veneer is in horrible shape, which is why I only paid $10 for it in 1980. To do that though I'd have to get it up out of the basement room I used to use for aerobics and that's now my bad-weather yoga room and miscellaneous storage. Did I mention it's solid oak? :eek:

My plastic dresser is in my walk in closet. I would have to do serious rearranging in one of the other bedroom closets to fit another one. The only stuff that is hung are a few fleeces and my ski pants, as well as hiking pants.
I have a 2 drawer night stand full of sports socks!

I have two nightstands, each with a drawer on top and a small cabinet with a door on the bottom. I bought a canvas bin to go inside each small cabinet. One holds my gym shorts, the other holds sports-related bags, such as camelbacks and old but still usable seat wedges.
I store tank tops for the gym and sports bras in the top drawer of one dresser.
I have a 9-cubicle organizer from Target in my walk-in closet. Six of the cubes hold bike clothes -- one each for sleeveless jerseys/tank tops, short sleeve jerseys, long sleeve jerseys, shorts, winter gear (tights, knee warmers etc) and socks/gloves. The other cubes hold miscellaneous bike gear.
During warmer months, my bike jackets hang in a closet along with my winter coats. I layer them all on one or two hangers. In colder months, the bike jackets stay in a big drawstring bag next to the front door, along with various arm warmers, knee warmers, etc., so I can bring them all with me when I load up the car for a ride and then make last-minute wardrobe changes at the ride start.
I have a fabric storage cube with a cover that I got from Ikea. It's full of base layers, most but not all wool. They used to live in a dresser drawer along with the t-shirts that are either sleeveless or long-sleeved, but there are now so many of them that they need their own separate home.
I also have a fair number of fleece pullovers and hoodies, which hang in the walk-in closet.
I like clothes, lots of clothes.
