For Christmas in the 80s, I got gray parachute pants & and a black Member's Only jacket. I was cool and cold. I lived in Michigan.

I asked my mom for parachute pants for Xmas 1980. And that’s what I got, real honest to gawd military surplus parachutists pants.

I begged my mother for a pair when they were popular. I got them (black) about a year after they went out of fashion. Wore them once, my mom washed them, with other clothes. Ruined. Color faded and seams tore. She blamed me for tearing them up at school and wasting her money.

You take that back. Every middle school boy that was cool had parachute pants in the mid 80s.

Disagree I was 16 in 86 and I didn't have nor did I want parachute pants. I was cool. Posers.
