: Re: Details: How do you describe a character's clothing in a story? I'm writing a story and I need to describe the character's appearance. My character is wearing a football jersey and running on

You have tons of options, depending on the context and the purpose of that sentence:

If we already know the scene is at a football field, then "Aiden watched Number Ten running on the field." ("Football" is redundant.)
If we already know the character Aiden is watching the activities at the football field, then "Number Ten ran on the field." ("Aiden watched" and "football" are redundant.)
If Number Ten isn't part of the story, then you could even delete the whole sentence. Or "Aiden sat in the bleachers watching the game."
