Remembering Starter Jackets
Friday, December 5th, 2008Let’s cut to the chase, nobody thinks these jackets are cool anymore. These days, you might find a vintage 49ers pullover in a TJ Maxx. But I don’t think you could convince Steve Young’s 11-year nephew to wear it. If you attempt to check out the merchandise on Starter’s website, you get punted over to Walmart.com! (Man, that’s not a good sign).
Alas, not every fashion statement gets to be transcendent. Which leads us to today’s blogger poll…
A bunch of sports bloggers – who probably still have these things hanging in their closets (no matter what the wife might say, right Adam Tracey?) – remember the hey-day of the Starter pullover.
