Much of my childhood was spent in Ralph Lauren – I was preppy to the max. I even remember getting in trouble for climbing trees in dress shirts and, in turn, tearing them. It seems Ralph was never made to be climbed in. But by age ten I had discovered Club Monaco, which would come to shape most of my teen years. This was Club Monaco back in the day, when it was Prada meets Jil Sander minimalism. A sea of navy blues and blacks. It was heaven. I digress.
Club Monaco is re-releasing their signature logo sweatshirt. I owned this baby in 10 colours back in the late 80s. This may just be the only ‘designer’ sweatshirt I would consider rocking these days, especially since it doesn’t have a $500 price tag. You can get your retro nostalgia when they release on December 9th.
