In the 1950s when I was in grade school, the poorer kids wore blue jeans. They were cheap, not a fashion statement. Our moms patched the knees with iron-on patches when they wore through. Now people pay extra for the holes and loose threads.

I remember the iron on patches, too. Some of us were y ahead of fashion.

Back in the day in High School I would wear my Carhartt chore coat on days when it was colder than heck. The Stephanie's and Steven's would point and laugh. Now their daughters and granddaughters wear the Carhartt brand as a fashion statement. Minus of course the oil and grease stains, some ground in dirt, and a splotch or two of manure.

Also... Stanley thermos

You didn't get new clothes all the time.
In fact, you RARELY got new clothes.

I was the oldest, and I STILL got 'hand me downs'.
From others in the neighborhood.
Or cousins in the area
