that have been around FOREVER? (meaning, since I was a kid in the days of the dinosaurs).

First, it was jorts. Yeah, they're called culottes. Was there any reason to change the name? Nope. Culottes is a cuter name.

Second, now they're using Shacket. Yeah, that's called a denim jacket, or a long-sleeved shirt that also can function as a jacket, such as padded lumberjack shirts, long-sleeved shirts with thicker materia., and the like.

I mean, I realize it doesn't take much to annoy my curmudgeon-y self, but I find these marketing ploys so very irritating.
