The 1960s Man

Title:

This menswear look shows a typical preppy look of the 1960s, based heavily on images of JFK, who popularized several preppy designers. Over the summers, JFK spent his free time on his sailboat and was photographed regularly wearing dark gray or navy bulky knit cardigans with shawl collars, white khaki shorts/slacks, white or blue cotton polos, and off-white canvas sneakers. The Sears Sportswear tan linen trousers from the 1960s reflect the preppy style of pants popular at the time. The 1960s Grand Slam Munsingwear light blue short-sleeved polo shirt is made of pique cotton. It has a white embroidered penguin logo on the chest pocket, a thin yellow and white stripe along the edge of the collar, and underarm gussets. The 1960s Sears Campus gray wool-knit shawl collar cardigan sweater has two grey satin trimmed pockets and a rib construction.
