Back in 1987, this photo looked totally normal. But now, it looks really odd.

Better or worse than the 1968 polyester shirt ad?

Edit: Toupee and style are really off for 1968. Likely well after TOS but before TPM. Stupid internet.

That's a one slash ad; this meme is two slash.

So, definitely: the meme is better.

Wait, what the hell? Cotton on the inside, polyester on the outside? What does that mean?? Did they glue a cotton panel to the inside?

I had to go searching. Seems like maybe there's a thin and loosely-woven cotton lining inside the polyester. You can kind of see a difference here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4379304786/80s-robert-bruce-gray-purple-short

Pretty stylin'!

I wonder what the motivation for it was. Do people not like the feel of polyester? I wonder if it gets too hot.

Polyester makes me sweat. I'd try it if it were cotton touching my skin and not plastic.
