You first saw it in Scarface. Your father had one. You started seeing this fashion statement all over the place in the 90s. You dubbed it the "Members Only Jacket" and you didn't even know why. One day we were sitting around at UVA and one of those PSA kids came by and said salam. I had to say it: "What's up with the Members Only jacket?" At that moment, everyone knew. It was worth a chuckle at the time. Years later, I had come to find out that the "Members Only" reference was rather common. There's something about those jackets which speak volumes about the wearer. What's up JC Penny's?
