The word sweatpants conjures up an image of myself in college — studying late at night, hair in a Flinstone’s bun on top of my head, plaid flannel shirt, and MHC sweatpants. The kind that cinched at the ankle with elastic.

And the logo was on the front of the sweatpants. We had a healthy dose of decorum and respect for our alma mater and ourselves.

Anyhoo.
