Wearing habits

It's interesting that "habit" also refers to specialized garments worn to display status, profession or function. Like riding habit, tennis habit or religious habits. We wear our habits as well but they are invisible.
Well, the accoutrements are important. I took up tennis for the same reason I took up horseback riding—part of it is about the habit. Habit is an old word, like a riding habit or a tennis habit. Part of the intrigue was to go to Vuitton and get the tennis racket and the tennis bag, the box for the bottle of water. I don’t do anything unless I think about my habit.
