Bro!! If you grew up in the North in the 80’s you probably wore a snowsuit. They were corney as hell but man did they WORK!!!
Dude Moon Boots were one of those iconic things from the 80s. That was before the rainbow had another meaning. Want to know why they were popular? This ad says it all.. they were cheap. I swear every kid had a pair or by Jr High we had waffle stoppers aka stoner boots where I lived, so they could march into the woods and come back smelling like hippie lettuce.
Haha. I said my comment with a huge smile because I was indeed a child of the 80s and were very aware of the moon boots. Growing up in SoCal meant I didn't see them as much as some of you, but often the kids wore them more for fashion.Dude Moon Boots were one of those iconic things from the 80s.

Oh frick I miss those OP shorts days. Who in the would have thought of corduroy shorts! The boots were a very odd fashion statement, mostly remember wearing him in grade school and learning the life lesson of "don't run in moon boots" - now where is my Atari 2600?I loved being an 80s kid. My usual setup was a Town and Country (T&C) t-shirt and OP shorts. Like every day.
Ha I’m in SoCal now but early years in Ohio and grew up in Louisiana. Fashion around there was County Seat shirts and Girbaud jeans. Now I have no fashion so it’s whatever t shirt is clean and Carhartt jeans and boots. I have shoes but they’re Costco cheapies for around the yard. I see my kids caring about what they wear now and just chuckle.Haha. I said my comment with a huge smile because I was indeed a child of the 80s and were very aware of the moon boots.

Mine died peacefully in his sleep.
I grew up in GA. If we got lucky, we got out of school one day because we got a few inches of snow. We put our feet in bread bags and put our shoes over them.

I used bread bags over the hand grips on my motorcycles so my hands would stay dry. Stuff newspaper up the pants legs to stay dry and keep the wind out. Newspaper across the chest for the same reason.
