Description
Sex: Both
Type of clothing: Jeans
When it was popular: 1980-1982
Description: These were the widest of the wide-legged jeans. Only the coolest kids wore them with the mandatory eight-inch cuffs. They came with both white and red contrast stitching. The pocket designs were varied, with chevron and a low, fat X being the most popular. I really wanted a pair of Red X-ed "SFRGs" but could not find them for love or money -- so I had to settle for a pair of white chevrons. Sigh!

When I was in third grade, these were all the rage. I had two pair: SFRG "V" backs, with the chevron stitched onto teh poclet in white thread, and the roaringly popular "Buckle-backs", with gold contrast stitching. I wore them with my Cherokee sandals and my white leather Nikes with the red swoosh and blue accents. The next year they were replaced in the rotation by my purple A. Smiles.

Those Nike's of which you speak were called CORTEZ. I owned several pair in the late 70's and early 80's. I owned a pair of SFRG as well, but I was a small kid in 5th. grage (1981) and they just didn't fit right. I've NEVER seen so much as a photos of SFRG since.

In addition to the pants you had to have the comb with the big handle on it that stuck out of your back pocket. Thay were as mush for show as they were for keeping that feathered hair cut looking good. I was in 8th-9th grade when these things were a necessity. Seems like three lifetimes ago.
