    This kills me because it's exactly how us in the "freak group" dressed in Jr. High. I had a Master of Puppets patch tho. As my dad says, "Just keep wearing what you like and it'll eventually come back into style." ;)

    If anyone has the money to spend for a jacket directly from Levi, I recommend doing it, if you get the full jacket, you can cut the sleeves off and fray the edges were the sleeves used to be, giving it a more accurate look.

    • @TTLsays
      @TTLsays Před rokem +3

      Agreed! The form of the stitching on the Levis vests is very specific and gives the illusion of broader shoulders since it has a "V" shape (for us females who wanna cosplay him lol). So if y'all can invest in the trucker vest you can get a very accurate look.

    I love how the gear I wore every day in the mid 80's is now a "costume" that people wear to cons, and events. I mean this genuinely because I thought it'd be far gone by now, lol. Mine was an Iron Maiden "Killers" back patch with more Iron Maiden pins, and a Slayer one on a Lee vest because it had wool insulated liner similar to flannel. Classic Levi's jackets didn't have a liner so the people that wore them froze their asses off without a jacket underneath, lol.

    This was very cool. I knew so many guys for who this was a uniform back in the 80s, often the larger back patch would be safety-pinned all the way round so it could be switched out as their fave band changed (or they just didn't have a mom or gf who sewed lol)
