Wore them as a cheerleader around 1970.

I would love to see them come back in style.

The pointy, bullet bras of that time that made your boobs look like cones sharp enough to poke an eye out, not so much.

You actually see them around every once in a while, as a nostalgia thing. I own two pairs, brown-and-white, and black-and-white. Every time I wear them, they get positive attention. People tell me they hope my wearing htem brings the trend back.

I love mine.

Rompers have been around for women for awhile. In 2017, the Romphim made headlines (google it).

And they solved the problem of keeping your shirt tucked in. They had them for guys and gals and they had snaps in the crotch.
