    You should’ve added Gaddafi tracksuit and his general hat with sunglasses. Gaddafi was truly a fashion icon and a 1980s villain. Muammar wore tracksuits and his favorite captain color tracksuit. More historical thing to note is that Gaddafi sold many tracksuits to liberation groups such as the IRA.

    I love how E 93rd and 2nd Ave is portrayed as some sketchy slum land when it really wasn't in the 80's and certainly is not today. That's the Upper East Side. I grew up on 94th btw 1st and 2nd. My parents moved us there in 1989. My mom lived there until 2014. It wasn't as affluent as the UWS but it definitely was not a shit show.
