I don't know about the business side (Though i'm not sure that your data is widely representative), but as far as everyday life it's a big difference. I go between the Netherlands and the US for a few weeks about 6-7 times a year. In everyday life it's just a lot less common to see someone on the streets in, say, Leiden or Amsterdam who's putzing around in an old T-shirt and jeans or (god help us all) sweatpants.

Sweatpants are indeed a lot less common here. My (very sporty) sister wore mostly sweatpants during her teens and student days, but she's an exception, and she switched to nicer clothes (including jeans) when she got married.
