None of the wizards I have ever played worn pointed hats or robes. Those were "ceremonial" and formal garments. They usually wore regular, albeit tough, clothes for adventuring.

Monks robes are popular, too.

I first interpreted that as the monk outfit, not actual robes worn by actual monks. Although that could work too -- there was a campaign where once we did have to disguise a wizard as a monk.

I make wizards take concentration checks to cast if they don't have their robes and pointy hat on. Its harder for them to think if they aren't dressed properly for magic.

Hopefully that's in jest. 'Properly' is, as this thread is showing, pretty subjective -- you're opening yourself to 'Well, of course MY wizard learned to cast in something else!'.

Well then their character learned how to do magic wrong and will take penalties for that.

What if it's clothing that is magically glamered to not look like wizard robes, but otherwise is?

If it's illusion spell, the wizard is okay, but if it actual transforms the clothes, then penalties.

What about shirtless wizards?

As long as you have the robes and hat, you don't need a shirt.
