Calvary shirts, double belts, bullet belts.

My least favorite was all those books on how to be a JAP or preppy

My vote goes for women in classic pointy-toed shoes(ie the mini high heel).

Again, this thread is useless without pics.

Why the shying away from posting pics in threads such as this? Are we old coots too old to remember HTML?

Drinking milk and watching Ninja Turtles.

Oh. I s'pose being born in 1986 disqualifies me from this thread. I see how it is. I never thought I'd see the day...

Does dry-humpin in your girlfriends car count as a fad?, cause if it does then that was my favorite <img src="http://www.cooganphoto.com/invboard/html/emoticons/devil.gif">

Oh yes, me too. I still have and wear my spiked belt. I never had a bullet belt (or "Sam Browne" belt as they were also known), but boys who had them were automatically super hot in my book, back in the day.

Pogo dancing (without the pogo, obviously). Not necessarily a fave but an unusual fad nonetheless.
