Originally concocted for collegiate football in the 20s, appropriated by Ivy Leaguers and hip-hop-heads, lauded by 21st century lounge lords, it’s fair to say sweatwear (a broad term that encompasses everything from heavy-duty, fire-proof hoodies to laid-back sweat shorts) is one of mankind’s finest achievements.

Seeing as a sweaty beast brandished with the initials ‘OPSC’ has been spotted on the horizon (this cryptic sentence should make sense in a few days), here’s a few photos of people draped in high-class jersey wares.
