Your dad rocked Native American patterns before you did and he’s got the jacket to prove it. While chasing his spirit animal, the whiskey-wolf, he flashed visions of a powerful new old look. Then, he reached deep into the history books of style and came back with warrior threads. He wore the nations rebellion, honored their sacrifice and respected their heritage each time he put his jacket on.
So hipsters, next time you’re John Smithing a culture of their style by ironically wearing their ethnically significant textiles with little or no knowledge of their history or you’re wearing a headdress to a party, remember this…
Your dad wasn’t wearing them to be trendy, he genuinely embodied what they stood for. And, if you want a pattern that embodies your lifestyle, it would be a combination of polyester, disappointment and neon.
P.S. The Native American name for hipster is “Squatting asshole”
