I know fam, that was my era. still lol at the tight ass jeans we used to wear compared to what we wear now. We used to call those 'straight leg' jeans and used to iron a crease down the middle. Creases went out of style then we started sportin regular cut (fitted).

And naw man those fat gold ropes came out in the mid 80's

you'll think an "old fart" would know this.......

who said i didn't know it? the same way we all look back at styles we used to wear back in the day and shake our heads wondering what were we thinking. Looking back I can laugh at it
