Remember when Champions used to be sold at Kmart for super cheap?

Shirts for like $2.50, sweaters for $4.50

My uniform shirts used to be champions from Kmart because we were broke back then...


Now these gen Z kids are walking around with $47 champion hoodies


We used to get picked on for wearing champions apparel to school because it was a tell that we were lower income.


My kid gave me a wishlist of clothes he wants

4 items
1 zip up hoodie
1 jogger
1 long sleeve
1 sweatshirt

Total $165!!!! 😳🤯


Ehhh sorry kind I’m on a budget
You can have maybe 2 of those items for Christmas
I can buy so much more clothes for that amount of money


Shit

I just bought him 3 pairs of pumas joggers, 2 packs of pumas socks and a fall jacket at Costco all for under $100

Yeah K Mart was great and my grandparents liked to do their Christmas shopping at Montgomery Ward as well. I agree that clothing prices can be outrageous for many brands. I'll admit that when I saw your first mention of Champions, this gearhead first thought about the Automotive Department 😂

@KaysHealingPath flashbacks of the '70s, Kansas and Missouri for me lol. I do remember Woolworths, especially the eatery they had.
