Yeah, but were you really cool unless you had some Girbaud jeans and a Starter jacket to prove it?

I still have one of those somewhere. That was back when clothes were manufactured to last forever, now you have t-shirts getting ate up on the 5th wash.

Back in the late 70s you absolutely were not cool unless you had the handle of one these combs sticking up out of your back pocket.

Zubaz pants ruled. I’ve never set foot inside a gym but had several pairs. The Road Warriors tag-team owned the company.
