I am working on another article from the same journal about teenage boy's
fashion.  Came across an interesting statement about their sport shirts:

"On the other hand, apache (which, incidentally, refers to the traditional
Parisian thug, not the American Indian) is what they're calling any shirt
that comes with a scarf."

I always thought that apache scarves were named after the American Indians.
Prior, I wondered why after them.  BTW, apache is not capitalized.
