Popped collars are like cicadas - they like come every few years, nobody knows why, they are annoying then they are gone. I also think like the wave, the trend moves fro area to are and then returns. it's in fashion in HK and there are several douches I know who think it's great, especially combined with the large Polo logo shirts.

They look like frat boys so no, there is nothing that stops feelings like you mention in that spot and many others.
My dad (who is 60+ years old) pops his collar when it is sunny outside. He said that is why shirts have collars. I'm not sure that is the true origin of the collar, but I do admit, if the sun is beating down on my neck, it sure works well.
Go watch the mighty ducks. The "evil" coach pops his jacket collar the entire movie. Come to think of it, he was a douche. Was he the first? Can someone do some research?
In the 90s this was popular for golfers playing in the sun who wanted some protection for the back of their necks.
Yall think this is a ******* joke, but come to Long Island. These douche ******* wear nothing but popped collars. I would bet that Long Island has the most douches per capita of anywhere in the world.
Nope, I'm the Long Island douche with a white Bevo sticker over a Dartmouth sticker on the back window. It's always great when someone flips a hook'em up here though.
Next time I see one of yall on the road on the island I'll flash you the hookem. I'll be the DB wearing the sideways longhorn cap, double popped collars, Gucci sunglasses (only after 8 pm), and Folex Presidente. And as I speed past you in my 328i convertible, Ill quickly change my hook em' to a sideways peace sign.
wow. such tolerance. they don't look like any "frat guys" that i know __________________________________________________ Try college station or lubbock and you will find them.
I didn't realize there were this many of us on Strong Island. I just moved from there after 2 1/2 long years and the douchebag quotient is without a doubt obscenely high. Think Jersey without the industrial wasteland.
About half an hour ago I was behind a Titan pickup with the silver Horns on the back...it was on 25A near Stony Brook. Anyone?
I will do it on very rare occassions when I need the collar to serve its intented purpose and prevent the back of my neck from getting scorched (on a fishing boat, for instance). Guys who do it as a fashion statement should have their man cards permanently yanked.
William Zabka is laughing at all of you......and he will soon beat you up and steal your girlfrieds.......all while wearing a popped collar (or two).
