    Re: The dichotomy: the "Edgy" old guy just looks silly

    I find it annoying that those '70s styles now only seem to be in style for women. I would buy them if they were being made to fit men. Women's flares are OK, but they make the pockets too small! (No, I am not going to wear a sporran with jeans!) And yet try to find any men's ones and see how much luck you have.

    Re: The dichotomy: the "Edgy" old guy just looks silly

    A few years back, when the 70's stuff was really making a big comeback, I read a great column in a smallish Minnesota newspaper wherein the author said to his kids, "We wore those awful clothes so that you wouldn't have to."
