In the 90s, it was the law that your entire family had to wear matching flag shirts on July 4th.

Thank you for your service
Isn't this a violation of the Flag Code?
Only the military has to follow flag code. For anyone else, it's a courtesy.
no. not using the flag as clothing or whatever is talking about an actual flag, not the design being printed and used whatever other way. it's about changing/destroying an actual flag meant for flying as a flag and also only pertains to officials or orgs representing the govt. an individual citizen can do whatever they want with their purchased or homemade flags with the right of freedom of expression.
at least, for now.
It's more like guidelines
lol have a 90s family photo with this exact shirt
Mom was a huge Old Navy fan back in the day…
That girl's face on the bottom right is a rectangle.
So glad my family was too dysfunctional for this trend.
The one dude is totally railing that other dude while the wives are getting down with the bartender and smoking weed.
that's true but you don't have to say it
there is help, if you reach out to local support services
A proper country, where one-size-fits-all really meant one size fits all.
And those flags stood for something. They stood for values, quality, and an uncompromising sense of style. Those flags stood for Old Navy. Where patriotic consumerism doesn't have to cost a fortune.
Amen
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
The ones for little girls had puppies with the flag. Always retrievers.
