I HATE TRACK JACKETS

[Guest dontcaretoomuchforcrap]

ALWAYS HATED THESE THINGS. SOME COMPANIES HAVE EXPERIMENTED WITH THEM, BUT IT NEVER WORKS.

go kill yourself.

Adidas Originals and Fred Perry made dope ones before the hypebeasts butchered it.

[boystory]

you hate everything.

I'd move this to supertrash but I'm not a mod of that forum.

I tend to agree. everyone rocks one now, it was cool for a while for that I'm-retroing-70's-and/or-80's- look.

Almost every single brand comes out with their own version - it's like all of a sudden, 100% polyester- made clothes are considered acceptable as part of a classic staple of menswear. I personally don't agree with the trend, but am glad that track pants are not as popular because it would be a shame that 100%polyester bottoms became part of the staple as well.

A lot of striped shirt guys like wearing track jackets now for a more "street" look. That says to me danger.

Sauce you're right. The striped shirt and polo with flipped collars are suddenly doing track jackets with faux-hawks.

Sure sight the trend is going downhill. But I still keep it hood with my old bboy adidas original suits.

The look you're describing happened 3-4 years ago, it's nothing new.

[triniboy27]

Agreed - and Adidas hasn't impressed me recently with any of their Originals stuff...

Maybe they'll bring back some good stuff for the World Cup...

fucking fred perry

[high_contrast]

fred perry is the fucking bombshit.

[john11f]

bump. still contemplating on the $250 limited fred perry/siv stodal tack jacket. am i just being suckered because they are supposed to be limited? they do come up with these every season and i'm just wondering if i'm paying for something that isn't worth it. by the way, are pique (much much heavier than pique polo shirts)materialed track jackets common? this one is and that's what attracted me to it.

[DrinDrin]

ahah yeah i noticed this too.

I had a black adidias one last yearthen lost it.

Next thing you track jackets become the new cool thing to wear.

[poly800rock]

tons of stuff for sale now on ebay: corpus, Rag & Bone, Helmut Lang, levi's premium, Gap, vintage etc.

I purchased an Adidas New York track jacket a while back, it's pretty nice. Haven't even had the chance to wear it real often.

i once saw someone with a track jacket... black w/yellow stripes, although i don't remember how many. on the breast it says (in yellow) 'new york state correctional facility' with the olympics logo underneath it... but instead of rings they were badges (heh). underneath the logo it said 'olympic <something> (maybe team)'.

does anyone know what those are? anyways i'm just curious.

[jasonm]

i hate em too. american apperal ones are the worst of the worst.

[Ki_Adi_Monkey]

Some of the Adidas AW05 track tops were great.

I got this as a gift 3 years ago.

Even though I wear it pretty often, it has stayed nice.

I get people stopping me on the street and asking me where I got it.

[homi29]

is that jacket 3M?

[dagsolo]

it's done by a tee shirt company called Changes.

I used to work there.

[giantreptile]

track jackets is more of a personal preference than anything. i do equate it with frat boys and Eurotrash in the US, though. Let me steer this in a slightly different direction to avoid being supertrashed...

i've noticed that those satin baseball jackets are coming back. what about those?

[dagsolo]

coming back from where? they were in just 2 seasons ago.

Is 2 seasons out considered "back"?

spoken like someone offended by what i said. don't split hairs with me, dag.

[JOSHBEE]

I saw a joint collaboration with Fred Perry and Comme de Garcon not too long ago that would make you eat your words. Too bad it was $550....
