To wear?

A forum member asks what everyone is doing during the holiday and one of the member replies:

"Trip to the coast, bit of chilling with mates and seek out some new threads. To wear."

by 'to wear' does he mean he's getting older?

Thanks so much.

This is like "stream of consciousness."

He says, " . . . . seek out some new threads - to wear."

He put the period after "threads." Then he may have decided that the expression might be unfamiliar to some of the respondants, so he clarified it. (new threads (new clothes) to wear)
