“Vintage trends come and go. Kanye West wears a Harley shirt and its value skyrockets, time passes, and people forget. It wasn’t so long ago that low rise jeans were completely out, but with the rebirth of y2k styles, it seems like many garments are coming back from the dead.
I remember in high school Members Only jackets were trending; you were lucky to find one for fifty bucks at a vintage store. Now they sit on thrift racks and resale stores alike at twenty. Mine sits in the back of my closet, too full of memories to pass along. When I mentioned it to my Grandpa, he reminisced on their initial popularity boom in 1980. Time moves trends.
Skinny jeans were seemingly the only option for much of the early 2000’s, but now you can’t give ‘em away; Carhartt Double Knees, Levi's Silvertabs, and JNCOs have taken their place. If you wait long enough, most trends die and come back around. In my experience, though, there are certain wardrobe staples that have never left the closets of the chronically well-dressed. For this article, I’ve chosen five timeless vintage essentials that I feel are gender-neutral and can be worn by people of all experiences.”
