<p>My H. never cleans out old clothes. I am trying to do “spring cleaning” before school is out and have started attacking his drawers. Guess what I found this afternoon? A whole stash of tall athletic socks with stripes!!!</p>
<p>Remember crop tops? And coulottes?</p>
<p>Of course now instead of crop tops, girls just wear their sports bras.</p>
<p>culottes reminds me of the never-quite worked “skort”</p>
<p>also 70s “culotte dress” which was always extremely awkward when you need to use the “ladies” because you had to really strip down…</p>
<p>ooh and really ugly Talbot’s “golf skirts”</p>
<p>
Reminds me…when son played hs soccer, the boys would change at the practice field beside their cars …so would strip to boxers and slip on soccer shorts. Some mother driving by complained and the boys were told they would have to trek to the football field, change in dressing room and then drive to soccer field.</p>
<p>I went to school and threw a fit-----the girl’s cross country team was running along public highways in sports bras!!!</p>
<p>The boys were allowed to continue changing as they were ;).</p>
<p>I thought the “culotte dress” was extremely uncomfortable for sitting anywhere (not just the bathroom!). </p>
<p>oooh and what about those “jumpsuits” that zipped all the way up the front?..ugh</p>
<p>a related to footwear item: how about “peds” the stretchy nylon things worn with flats if you were not wearing “hose”— (sort of like what we’re now given sometimes when trying on shoes)–they would either be too tight and leave a red ring on your foot–or too loose and crawly under your foot.</p>
