Steve Jobs
As Steve Jobs changed the face of computing with the Macintosh, iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad, his outfit always remained the same. Presented here are the exact same brands that filled the closet of the late, great Apple CEO.
Ernest P. Worrell
Ernest P. Worrell, better known as Ernest Goes To…, is a bumbling but good-natured handyman. He was so popular in the 80’s that he was able to cross over from local TV commercials to a franchise spanning 10 films. It’s not too hard to replicate his outfit, but that face is another story. Knowhutimean?
McLovin
In Superbad, Fogell (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) uses a fake ID to buy alcohol for a party. On the downside, the fake ID is not too subtle, issued by the state of Hawaii to a man named simply “McLovin”. On the upside, it makes a great accessory for his not too subtle “grown-up” clothes.
McKayla is Not Impressed
Following a 2nd place finish in the 2012 Summer Olympics, McKayla Maroney expressed a moment of disappointment, inspiring countless McKayla is Not Impressed macros. This set comes with both her silver and the team gold, for which she was reported to be mildly impressed.
Morton Salt Umbrella Girl
The Morton Salt Umbrella Girl was created all the way back in 1914 and is still going strong today. For a long time now, it’s been considered one of the most famous logos. Still, if your outfit draws confused looks from young ones, you have your Morton salt on hand to show them.
Bad Luck Brian
Bad Luck Brian is a teenage boy who’s gone through a series of unfortunate events, mostly involving bouts of incontinence. Takes a bad school photo in 1988, on the Internet for all eternity.
Louis CK
Louis CK is a brilliant standup comedian starring in the surrealist FX hit Louie and HBO’s mostly forgotten Lucky Louie. His fashion style is apparently influenced by Steve Jobs’s famous black shirt and blue jeans.
Dignan
Dignan is a landscaper (not just a mower) in Bottle Rocket. His 75-year plan includes breaking his best friend Anthony out of a voluntary psych ward and running a practice heist at Anthony’s mom’s house. His yellow jumpsuit makes him look like a little banana, but it’s all part of the plan.
