Sweet Orr were popular in my hometown of Newburgh New York, my wifes from Long Island and never heard of em, I figured it was because they were made in Newburgh, used to buy em at Alfis, put a handle comb in the back pocket and you were in man along with Nike sneakers

I've had the same experience as Bobby B. I grew up in New Paltz, not far from Newburgh, and Sweet Orrs were totally the thing. When I've mentioned them to friends my age who grew up elsewhere, I've often gotten weird looks and responses such as, "What's a Sweet Ore?" Mentioned Sweet Orrs today to a co-worker who grew up in Newburgh and was delighted she knew what I was talking about!

I grew up on LI in Massapequa and everyone I knew wore Sweet Orrs and Chams De Barron shirts in the 80s for a few years. Another favorite were parachute pants. We would hang out at Skates of America and an alternative music club called Spit. Those were the days... also popular were skin tight Sergio Valente and Jordache jeans only to be worn w/ white capezios... and, in the Summer we wore netted t-shirts and half t's... what are the kids wearing now??

Yes, sweet-orrs, parachute pants, Members only and Serucci jackets. And I too was a Chams Man, or at least a Chams Boy hoping to become a Chams Man. Perhaps the pinnacle of youth fashion never to be matched again. Today's kids with their hip huggers that don't fit, pushing up stomach flab better left below the waistline, and distressed (that is, ready torn-and-tattered) Abercrombie and Fitch cargo shorts so long they might as well be pants, plus they weigh five pounds. Give me back my Sweet-Orrs, esp. the light gray with purple piping I was wearing when I got my first hand job at Les Jardin's.

Hot pink Sweet-Orrs with Smurfette patch on the back were my favorites in fourth grade, but I am pretty sure I had just about every other color too. Grew up near Newburgh/New Paltz and always surprised people from other areas didn't live in these back in the late 70s/early 80s.

I loved Sweet-Orrs. I grew up in Nutley, NJ and you could buy them on Center Street, I think it was an army-navy store. My mom wouldn't let me wear jeans to school but Sweet-Orrs were allowed. Had them in navy, green, brown, black, they were the high school Uniform. I'm 49 and I'd still wear them.

Sweet-Orrs were very popular in Queens- grew up in Rosedale and even the hip-hop dudes from nearby Hollis and St. Albans wore them.

My Grandmother Angela age 13(1931) worked in the Sweet-Orr Factory in Wappingers Falls NY when she graduated the 8th grade. I'm not sure how long she worked there, but have pictures of her and her coworkers on the rooftop taking a break.

When I went to high school in Wappingers Falls, NY I think I wore every color they had. Damn comfortable!

I worked for Sweet-Orr as a salesman. My Dad worked for Sweet-Orr from 1904 as an Office Boy 'till he retired from the Board of Dirctors at the age of 80-63 years later.
