When I was Less Old, I used to disparage a bunch of younger fashions. Here in Chicago, that included low-slung pants on black and latinx guys, and completely inadequate top coats worn in winter by finance bros.

As I got older, I realized that the black/latinx fashion sense was a lot richer and deeper than I'd thought, and that if they wanted their pants to defy gravity (you know, like a Broadway show!) it weren't none of my bidness. I'm still fascinated by how guys can walk and even run with pants well below the tipping point, but that's a matter of observing fashion physics in action.

The (largely but not completely white) finance and tech bros wearing inadequately light top coats when the temps are 32 degrees and lower? That's still stupid.
