OP was SHIT! In my warped little teenage mind (parallel w/my peer group), OP was for "In-landers" and "Tourists". My neighborhood group would not be caught dead in a pair of OP shorts (considered too short and limp-wristed if you will)...Puka shell necklaces were tolerated as long as your latest girl gave it to you as a token of love and sex. Our standard clothing at that time - I remember this well - was Kanvas by Katin boardshorts, Hang-Ten t-shirts and double-layer colored foam flip-flops that we would decorate with stoner graphics with black sharpie pens (JOB & Zig Zag, 'LUMBO GOLD, Led Zeppelin, KISS, WHO, wave imagery, "locals only", the Wedge, HB rules, Infinity etc), corduroy and brush denim Levis, Earth shoes and wallabys. We were so f'ckin conformist too it cracks me up thinking back on those days. All of this would have been pre-Ramones/Sex Pistols 1976 era. After those bands became our focus everything changed. Cheers! G
