Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Step 1: Get the hair.

    Jim's signature look is a mop-like, shaggy 'do.

  2. Step 2: Dress the part.

    Jim wears light colored dress shirts with simple, plain ties.

    Early on, Jim wore flannel ties, which is a "hand-me-down" look.

    He always wears dress pants with his dress shirts, and while he was co-manager, Jim wore slim-cut suit jackets as well.

    Out of work, Jim is seen wearing classic white briefs, athletic clothing, and most frequently, jeans and a sweater. , Jim's common accessories are his brown/black watch (left hand) and his messenger bag (instead of a briefcase or backpack).

    Jim also uses regular yellow pencils, but prefers a pen.

    His custom mug is white with a red diamond pattern that says "Grandma Is A Great Cook." Jim has a Macbook, but this only makes several appearances in the show.
  3. Step 3: Get the gear.
