Details talked about this. It'll be a trend I stay far, far away from. They're hideous.

Not a big fan personally, I think they have been slipping through since last year.

Especially with vintage collectors, they have become a new niche, and that will always have repercussions, to some scale, with the modern market that always comes back to counter.

Oh, people will buy. Not me personally though. I lived through preppy once, in middle school, and have never recovered. These things have been big in the urbanwear scene for a while now (worn huge). I've seen the designer versions (Marc Jacobs, for example) and frankly, I haven't been that impressed.

I'd hit one in black and gray if it was well constructed and fit well.

I was going to say, "Well, I do need something between her back and the grass under the bleachers..."

I agree. They don't appeal to me at all.

Ha! I still have my old highschool varsity jacket. If I get back into it, I'd do it oldschool style.

But, it's not going to happen. Maybe I'll give it to my girl for this upcoming V-day.

A varsity type jacket was the first jacket I really liked. I think if they made a slim fitting one (since I'm skinny), I might get one.

Major lolz @ sXe varsity jackets ... those make me want to kill Ian MacKaye so he can spin in his grave.
