Slim fitting suits, skinny ties, Letterman jackets, bowling shirts, saddle shoes and chunky glasses defined the 1950s guy’s wardrobe.
Jocks wore letterman jackets, blue jeans and Converse high tops. ’50s nerds set a new fashion trend with horn-rim glasses, high waisted pants, and pocket protectors. Teddy Boys in England reintroduced style from the 1900s.
Take a look at these cool photos from Steve Given to see what gentlemen often wore in the 1950s.

Sorry, but the VW Beetle is definitely late 60's, and the GMC pickup is a 1960. But still very nice pics.
ReplyDeleteYes, a few of these pictures are from the Sixties. For example, the boy on the Triumph Tiger 100. I know because I bought one in 1963 when I was 16 years old. They were in production from 1946 to 1973.
ReplyDeleteThank you for these photos. I was looking for the tee shirt and trouser on shoes look. This is exactly that. The motors are cool too.
