Rofl War! Nope ladies, the winter boots I wore as a kid - over my shoes - were butt-ugly brown rubber on the outside, with wool lining on the inside, and a rubber and metal pullclip to close it on the outside. They were toasty warm and if I could find a pair that fit today, I'd get 'em!!!

No I remember the boots Mame was talking about as I had them also and I remember hating the buckles with a passion because if any snow got in them or they were cold you could not get them undone. They were plain brown or off white rubber boots and could wear shoes inside as Mame said. Thank goodness around the time I was in grade 2 or 3 they stopped either making them or I just stopped wearing them. I also remember Mukluks when I was little!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Huk, my MOM called it Monkey Wards... haha Melfie, lol, love the class pic! looks like you were a year ahead of me. I especially dig the Darth Vader tee with plaid pants. Juju, as I recall it was very common for little girls then to be wearing the same dress cause like Stacey said our moms all shopped at Sears or Wards HP glad ya got a kick outta seeing my cousin. I think you were v. classically pretty Prisoner love love your hats, perfect nerdy family and rocket scientist dad. think I saw him in some of my jr high science film strips Pamy LOL your 80s hair rocked!! you looked fierce in that killer blue dress, your hair there was amazing ... also liked the bo derek look Mames what a sad story about your hair I always wished I had thick dark hair - I agree with pamy, your hair was beautiful Stacey, my dad didn't have a beard, but I remember when my brother was 5 he shaved off my dad's long sideburns while he was napping with his toy barbership set (lol) Chaplin, beautiful pic!

My sister had the bangs that were like a tidal wave when she was in Jr. High. I crack up when I see old pictures of her like that. My hair was never like that. MOSTLY because I didn't have the coordination o do it. LOL.

80s hair required huge amounts of resources, skill and effort. As I recall my daily routine involved mousse, gel and 2-3 different hairsprays and curling irons. How many ppl had a 'tail?'

OMG, I did! LOL. I had a short bob with a tail that went down to the middle of my back. LOL. I cut it off after two days because even at 12 I knew it looked ridiculous.

Hands raised for the tail! I had the asymmetrical cut in the 80's - boy short on one side, long and permed out to *here* on the other. In the back on the short side I had a tail we bleached out, then dyed various colors. I had a natural white forelock that was died too -- purple, pink, green, red, blue... I went to the hairdresser once a month in the 80's. I'm lucky if I get there once a year now.

Yay - Skootzy! I flipping LUV YOU! As much as Chappy hated them (and I did too as a kid, lol) for some stupid reason I've been reminiscing fondly about them for days now... (before this thread came up...) and I am dying to see if I can get still find a pair in my size. I love being old enough to not give a damn if anyone else likes'em or if I look ridiculous in them. LOL. You freaking rock Skootz!!!!

Skootzty I'm curious what how you googled them? I tried everything... well guess not everything. LOL. Eta, they only make 'em in children's sizes. No surprise there. Oh well. It's just that I hate carrying my shoes when I go anywhere nice in the winter.

Did you mean it when you said you wore the boots OVER your shoes? That's bizarre!
