Battle of the Track Suit...





I will be doing a 4 part POLL called Battle of the Track Suit to determine the best vintage track suit that I have in stock. Whether you call it a warm-up suit, a track suit or a Guido Tuxedo (thats my favorite) everyone has owned one at some point in their life. The track suit has been a staple in sports, music and fashion for over 40 years now. In 1964, Adidas began to produce tracksuits as leisure wear. These had the distinctive Adidas three stripes, zipped trouser bottoms and collars, and stirrups, features which remained popular for decades. The emergence of tracksuits as a fashion item began in the 1970s and although they were at first mostly worn by athletes, tracksuits became increasingly fashionable in the hip hop community in the 80s.
