Blast From the Past: Bowling Shirts

When one thinks of bowling shirts, a barrage of possible images comes to mind. For some people the idea of a bowling shirt is simple: a blue T-shirt with your name stitched in the front pocket and maybe a team name on the back. Others may think of old time bowling shirts with garishly bright colors and a polyester look, something that reminds them of a specific Simpsons episode. That comment is not a knock on bowling shirts. Quite the contrary, for many people an odd looking assortment of colors and designs adds to the fun. Bowling shirts, unlike most other areas of fashion, can get away with having a completely vintage and old time look. In few other places can public dress be expected to be so odd or off beat, a strange cross between the sensibility and somewhat down to earth simplicity of the “I Love Lucy” era, to the semi-preppy, to the “lounge lizard” attitude and all be equally accepted without a second glance.
