"1. A fashion question 2. Really really old heads answer this. "


  

          

Trends are funny in that you have trends that are remembered for a long long time long after the trend falls out of favor and at the same time there are trends that are completely forgotten.

I'm talking about a forgotten trend that I'm trying to understand a bit.

I didnt notice it at first but now I kinda can't ignore it when I look at old photos.

What is the explanation with black men wearing cowboy hats in the 70s and maybe even 80s? I have family photos with my uncles wearing them shits and I thought it was kind of their thing until I started seeing it in other places.

Would this shit ever make a comeback?
