I think it’s because you need to stay warm while out skateboarding and going to shows, but a jacket would cover up your band Tshirt, so long sleeves go underneath.
Back in the day I somehow acquired a promo t shirt for the movie Eurotrip that had long sleeves sewn under short sleeves so it looked like you were wearing 2 layers but it was only 1 shirt. Can’t remember where that thing came from, as I’ve never seen the movie.
I have a couple of shirts that my parents got me in the 90s that have long sleeves sewn into a normal tee shirt. They thought I would like them because I did wear thermals and long sleeve tees under my short sleeve tees. I was gracious and would wear them occasionally when I was not going to see anyone I knew, but internally I did not like them because they defeated the purpose of the 2 layer system and made me look like a poser.
Good on you for wearing them without complaining.
Euro trip is hilarious. You should watch it
“Scotty Doesn’t Know” is such a banger of a song too. I couldn’t find it anywhere to download when the movie came but you could play it on the website for Eurotrip, so I recorded the shitty stream to put on my MP3 player.
Matt Damon nailed that
Funnily enough, I came upon Scotty Doesn’t Know years before I ever watched Eurotrip, love both!
I used to have a shirt where the the “long” sleeves where sown onto the short sleeves, giving the illusion I was wearing 2 shirts.
Poser lol
So you were one of the REALLY cool kids
I still have a couple of these
In the 90s, it meant you did heroin
In the late 90s you were a sk8er with at least one pair of jncos
Also that
Can confirm! xD Toss in Vans, a chain wallet, and bleached hair to complete the look.
Just the tips
Billabong shirt, oakley glasses, DC shoes
I can understand why, but then: why not simply wear a long sleeve shirt without the regular t-shirt on top?
Because it looked cool
And it was a lot easier to find cool T-shirts than it was to find cool long sleeve shirts
That makes sense, thank you!
Only if it was a thermal. This is nonsense poserism.
Also the year was 1994.
Does it mean anything now? Still a super practical way to get different looks without a big wardrobe through the power of permutation. Also layering produces an air gap that makes this nearly as warm as a sweater and the outer layer rarely needs to be washed. Wore it because I liked music, kept it because I didn’t want to buy a lot of new clothes.
Yes, i have to say - I really like this look. I’ve layered like so omce or twice in my life but i don’t often get long sleeves. A nice winter style
Is that Josh Hartnett?
No, that’s Josh Hairnet
Did we stop doing this?
We did. Lookcaround, everyone is naked now.
In seriousness, i haven’t seen people do this.
I see kids do this sometimes since the 90s / early 2000 are sorta back.
JNCO jeans, chains, polo, oversized clothes, etc.
That was my question
Liking music or the shirt thing?
Yeah
Both I still wear long sleeve thermals under my band t shirts
in america i assume
I also remember a short while where sleeveless hoodie-vests was a thing so I was rocking three layers with shorter and shorter length sleeves like that and I was the coolest kid in my school (probably).
I still think sleeveless hoodies are a cute look (if you are a bara character)
No, it meas that I have prominent man nipples without two layers of cloth.
Some people remember legit fall where you could layer anything.
They tend to be millenials.
Last time I fell I hurt my knee when inline skating because I forgot my protective layers, that fall was pretty legit :(
I prefer button shirts, and I think wearing two looks neat
And defeated an alien invasion with Bic drugs.
