The ****ing Macarena.

Overalls with one hook undone.

Overalls period.

Baseball caps with the tags still on.

And that weird pacifier fad in the early 90s. WTF was that about?

cavarichis and girbaud...(that was very early 90s...maybe even 80s)...yuck

^^^ then there was the "Chess King" sh*t...like what Trey is wearing there...that kinda ugly ass sh*t



then I think around 92-94 that area in time, when gangsta rap hit big...everyone started saggin, wearing hats tall and sideways...lots of jewlery...ect....and that style seems like it is still very present today...maybe altered in ways, but alot of kids I see runnin around look like the same sh*t I had while at high school...just replace the gold with platnum/silver

Starter too, but I'm talking about like shiny ones. I'm trying to remember the name, they were supposed to be like "surfer chic"

edit: Surf Style. Those things were everywhere.

I just did a google search for trapper keeper and came up with the same exact fractalized monstrosity I had.

Anyone else have this one?

I would rock those today if they still made them/had em in adult sizes.

Pogs were awesome too. Along with OG triple OG Red and Blue Pokemon.

And the creme de la creme, Goosebumps.

I couldn't come up with any 90's fads I wanted to forget off the top of my head (maybe I've already forgotten them) so I'll just throw out a fad I was indifferent toward:

This was a pre-game staple for many of my middle school basketball teammates. I still think they loved the logo more than the drink.
