    Why it needs to make a comeback: Because having to carry your music around on CDs that can only carry 60 minutes of audio will humble us all.

    Why it needs to comeback: Folks still get hot and sweaty am I right? Having a headband on will definitely help with that. Also you'll never be unprepared for a pick-up basketball game, ever.

    8. Airbrushed t-shirts:

    Why it needs to comeback: They never really left and they're kind of coming back into the mainstream thanks to cornrow Kenny most likely, but some fresh cornrows are second to none.

    11. Girbauds:

    Why it needs to comeback: It's really empowering to see your favorite rapper inadvertently promoting entrepreneurialship. Also, I really need a pair of Rocawear jeans.

    15. Big-ass Steve Harvey suits:

    Why it needs to comeback: Because dressing like Steve Harvey in this day and age is a meme-able offense.

    Why it needs to comeback: Because you never know when you might need to camouflage yourself in a purple forest of some sort.

    17. Full leather outfits:

    Why it needs to comeback: Because it's so gaudy and makes everyone look like they belong in The Matrix. Who would get tired of that? Don't answer that.
