Well, a glimpse into a closet in my house that belongs to a man reveals:

1. about a dozen shirts of the same style in different colors
2. a couple dozen ties in different designs
3. a half dozen pants, similar style, different colors
4. a bunch of sweaters
5. a couple dozen tee-shirts, different colors, similar style
6. a couple pairs of shoes
7. one drawer, half full, of underwear and socks

The woman's closet is actually 4 closets, 2 in the basement, 2 in the bedroom. Dozens of shoes and purses. Tons of outfits. Evening, day, weekend, work, bedtime. Also a giant dresser of hosiery and underwear.

Seems like poor Mike is a product of society. Men's fashion hardly changes and they don't seem to require much, but women are clothes horses. ;)
