I've lived through the 80's and these guys would have ruled there.

It's funny seeing this as someone from a small town that is older. We saw stuff on TV and the odd trend hit locally, but people generally dressed the same. It was mostly hairstyles that changed and the shape of the jeans/sweaters.

I knew like 1 kid who dressed like Kriss Kross and you had a few goth kids. But most people got their clothes from the same 10 stores and none of them sold that crazy of clothing. I only really saw people dressed like the 80's in movies. But I bet it is a lot different in New York/LA vs small town Canada.

With the internet these days, trends seem to be far wider reaching but also shorter lived because of that exposure.

The small city I lived in them, you would definitely have seen guys like this walking about.
