Hahahaha ... I notice the puddle is the one looking at the "Action Zone". I don't even want to know what the snack sack is!

I've got some Sansabelt's from this era and I've never found a snack sack let alone seen any action zone.

Most excellent ads.  I really just eat up this kind of eye candy.  I've got something from House of Worsted-Tex, but I can't remember what it is at the moment.  I think it's a tweed.

Top pic makes me uncomfortable.  The bottom pic looks ideal.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

I was talking about the green ones.  They're just way too tight. 

I've gotten some decent use out of my Maincoat in the past week.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

my wife would love that muted rainbow stripe dress... I think the green trousers are an illusion, man. The way the jacket's covering the thigh with the bent knee and pleats makes them look plastered on, but judging by the other leg, they're tapered as hell sta=prest casuals but not as extreme. Also looks like a young Ronny Reagan in the Maincoats ad.

They're damn tight.  In my head I can see them hugging the life out of his ass.

That description is mouthwatering.  Hits all the high notes.  A good example of the illustrator overemphasizing the trimness of the silhouette.  Look how skinny everyone's legs are.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

I know... Those are the all new trim and tapered post-grad slacks!

It's what dreams are made of. Imagine walking into a local men's shop these days and seeing such advertising: Natural shouldered, narrowed-down lapels (of course!), hooked vent, lap seams... 3-piece corduroy for $29.95 in your choice of loden green, field olive, antelope, sand and wood brown!

*sigh*
