    I was thinking about loons as I started scrolling through this thread! Weren't they worn low on the hip and were very tight-fitting until at the knee they flared out to a ridiculous degree? I was a bit young for them I think as they were late-60s/very early-70s if I remember correctly - and I always thought of them as hippy-wear! I remember you could buy them mail-order - there were always ads for them in the Melody Maker.

      Most of the 80s (or at least 70% rather) to be honest, but even thogh most have been improved upon but are'nt as good if this makes any sense, which then brings everything full circle and = no difference then as a result. Though the original windrunners of the 80s and Short Collared Shirts from then are good!!

        One major biggy I hate is how ties have been made to be skinny ones- this is nothing like how they made them in the 80s

        If you want a skinny tie - just wear it skinny I say, it's only the same as other trends like Cowboy Hats and Jeans Trends - even though it started off as a School fad lol

          Jeans actually id never wear them cords are fine but never jeans.

          Never would wear shoes from the day i left school ive almost never wore shoes unless i really have to.
          These are two good calls you have made here Darren - which further emphesizes we must be "lost twins"

          I never liked Shirts either as well as Jeans and Shoes - as you say, unless the later for Weddings/Funerals

          Though if I go on this airCabin Crew Course in Sept that may all change to be honest lol

              Whatever happened to the trend for those Global Hypercolor t-shirts? Did they ever come back from the early '90s? I never had one myself, but my friend and I became convinced back then that they would chance colour around a woman's chest when she was excited. So, it was a guaranteed way of telling if she liked you, right? Right?

              REMEMBER: cream first, jam second...

                I heard they became unpopular because people realised they would show when your armpits got hot.

                  I’ve mentioned it before ...

                  I followed the trend of wearing ‘lunes’ and also ‘two-tone’ parallel trousers ....

                  Lunes were skin tight from waist to knee then went outwards into baggy pants from knee to foot .. I had a brown pair and a bottle green pair ..

                    I was being a bit too literal and ironic, I would say that I wouldn't wear my school uniform today.

                              Maxi leather coats looked worse on guys who thought they were cool dudes
