I have a colleague who is a huge SF Giants fan (baseball). Occasionally, when the Giants play at home, he may wear a Giants jersey (especially, if he plans to attend the game). Actually, during playoffs, a big portion of SF may be wearing something orange to support the team (say, socks) :-).
Unless you interact with customers, in the Bay Area, nobody cares what you wear. Shorts and sandals are not uncommon among software engineers.

Depending upon the public view of the employee, if it is done on Casual Friday, then fine.
However, I have never worked at a place nor been a consultant to a company that would allow their professional staff wear things like that other than on a “Casual Friday” and when clients are not present.
Indeed, at one place that I consulted, Casual Friday was considered a sports jacket and a tie…….
Professionals have to remain professional.
