Yes I would.
Would you drive a car that was owned by a dead person ?
Same thing, its just possessions.

As long as he didn't die in those clothes...that would be kind of creepy.
It would have to be a life or death situation for me to ever consider taking clothes off a dead man.

After my friend died, I attended a concert for her favorite artist, and wore a t-shirt she'd bought at another concert for same artist that we attended together. She loved that shirt, wore it often, and I wore it proudly. I have a couple other shirts of hers, and would wear them regularly if she wasn't a size or two smaller than me.
It would bother her if no one was getting use of her perfectly good clothes, after she no longer needed them.

I wore dead man's shoes for a year or so. Picked them up an estate sale, his friends were helping the family settle the estate/clean up the apartment. That's what I called them too, my dead man's shoes.

I answered "yes?" (Though I am not sure why I am answering with a question.)
I remember when my uncle died, my dad got a whole bunch of "new" jeans and casual shirts. I was seven at the time and it was not until a few years later that I realized they use to belong to my uncle.
When my wife's grandma died, we did not keep any of her clothes, but we did live in her house for a year and kept a lot of her furniture (we have moved a couple times since then and I think we still have some of the furniture in storage). The only piece of furniture that had to go was the bed she died in.
Under normal circumstances, I would wear the clothes of someone who died, though I probably would pass on the clothes they actually died in. However, if it was an emergency or life and death situation (freezing to death, etc.) I would not hesitate for a second to wear the clothes.

The chair I'd always sit in at a house I was living at with a few friends had someone die in it, and it never bothered me, so I don't think clothes would. Death happens it's picking us off one by one but it's no different than picking up groceries.

Not really. My brother and I were roughly the same build. Some time after he died, my mother gave me some of his stuff. It's really no big deal - it's not like he died in this shirt or anything.
I've got a winter coat and a nice dress overcoat that I wear when I need to. Used to belong to my Grandfather, before he died about 9 years ago.

I wear a dead man's watch every so often. Of course, that specific dead man was my grandfather and I inherited the watch so that might be different.
