Popcultured Blast from the Past: Levi’s Cords
Do you remember this fashion trend? Back in the day (okay, back in MY day– the mid 1970’s) Levi’s corduroy pants were the coolest thing to wear to junior high. Boys and girl both wore them. The cords came in a variety of cool colors, had to be straight leg (at least in my part of the country) and absolutely had to be cuffed at the bottom. What a fashion statement– and they looked great with my “Aaaay Fonz” t-shirt!
I owned a tan pair and a blue pair of the coveted Levi’s cords. I wanted the emerald green but never got them! Wondering if the cuffed cord trend will ever be cool again….
