Back To The 80's I Go..........
Sitting around BS-ing about jacket attire styles the other day, Members Only jackets were brought up and all 13 of us there said they had one. I had a black one and a light blue one too. Back in the '80s, you weren't a cool dood unless you had one............
Sooooo.......WTF, I can use a new jacket, purchased a faux leather MO with the liner for cold weather. |

I still have mine. I recently threw away all my parachute pants. In style again or not, there was no way those were EVER getting past my knees on the way up.

Never owned one, was not acceptable redneck attire during the 80s.
Owned a few Levi and Wrangler denim jackets, and a few pairs of Tony Lama, Stetson felt hats were for ladies. |

Can I still wear a 'popped collar' now that I wear jorts and black socks with white New Balance tennis shoes, or am I mixing decades.
FWIW: I was not a member. We didn't have that kind of money back then. |

I didn't have one.
But, I got into the Hawaiian shirt style from Magnum PI and had a closet full of them that decade. |

Never had any of those. Ex wife bought me the jacket, or I wouldn't have had it. I'm more of a jeans and t-shirt or polo shirt wearer.

Nope, not a ****ing chance. We laughed at the "Members" only crowd.

Had (and still have) a black Schott motorcycle jacket dating to the early '80's. Can still barely wear it. Never followed trends either. Jack Purcell sneakers in HS and denim Levi's jackets. Blue jeans or cords. Not bell-bottom or flare, if it could be helped. There was a time in the mid '70's when straight-legged trousers were almost impossible to find. I dressed for comfort and functionality. Still have the Durango boots I got in 1976 for MC riding, and they still look good and fit well.
