The other thing that was big in my high school in the late 1960s was the
London Fog yellow poplin zip-front jacket. They were really
ubiquitous--looking out at a school assembly,. one saw a sea of light
yellow. And, rumor
had it that they were stolen from our gym locker room. (I never had one
of
these, either--pricey and not very practical for Missouri winters.) But
I'm curious if this fad was wide-spread during the late '60s at high
schools
in other parts of the country.
How funny! I never new that was a large trend. I didn't have a london fog
jacket, but I do remember a dearly loved pale yellow, zip front, hooded
jacket. I'm pretty sure it was OshKosh, and it was made from what I'd call
light weight canvas, or maybe denim, unlined. I LOVED that jacket and I was
so sad when I outgrew it. I'm pretty sure it was second hand and I have no
idea where it came from. I had that jacket in the mid 70s in Iowa.
