Swish. Swish. Swish. Swish. Swish.

The iconic sound of the 90s

You could hear this family coming a mile away

Is there a name for this kind of color style? I love it.

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

90's pastel. Also, the colour accents in "stain hiding carpets", solo cups, etc... They're also using color blocking, which was considered "jazzy, yet minimalistic".

They're windbreakers from the 90's.

It was called a Shell Suit where I grew up

Same! Mine was purple and green and exceedingly stylish if I do say so myself.

I found one of these outfits at the thrift. I bought it.

Always gotta be prepared to break wind

Well, wearing that you won't get lost on the mountain... But my eyes are getting lost ~

Nobody could sneak up on anyone in the 90s

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

90s we're a windy time.

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I have definitely broken my fair share of wind before.

[–] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago

Wind: in shambles

[–] SuzyQ@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

So much 90s in one picture... I want my bright colored wind suit back as an adult.

Pretty sure I had that same jacket as the boy in lower ~~right~~ left back in '91.

[–] baronvonj@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yes. Yes, indeed.

[–] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

I like to think they went straight from 90's windbreakers to 00's snowmobile jackets

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 2 years ago

I break wind without even needing wind breakers. 😏

[–] Blackout@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That's real style. I can't be bothered putting on anything but a black shirt and shorts anymore. I have 2 pairs of each so I have something to wear when the other one is being washed

I'd love to see this much color everywhere again

I just dress up for undercover work just in case I feel compelled to turn into a secret agent.
