Polos, Lees and Nikes as 1982 choices What to wear!?! At one time or another everyone has asked himself this question. Should I wear my red saddlebred polo with my Lees or my blue gator with my Levis? During the early part of the year an observer would have surely recognized that Lees, Levis and Calvin Kleins were favorites among the student body when it came to blue jeans. Ruffles were all one saw in the blouse category. Then there were button down oxford shirts worn by both guys and girls, and let's not forget polos! Polos came in variegated colors and assorted styles. There were those with alligators, penguins, saddlebred horses, and many more. With these tops an add-a- bead necklace was a nice touch. Aigner was 'big' among leather items. One could see Aigner purses, belts, shoes, coats, gloves, keychains and wallets on both teachers and students alike, and, last but not least... shoes. Leather Dexters and Bass shoes have always been and will always be popular among high school students. Nike was the chosen tennis shoe and came in leather, nylon, and canvas with that famous 'Nike swoosh'. Sporto all-weather duck shoes were worn by numerous girls and a few guys. The year of 1982 offered a variety of selections in what to wear.
