My favorite story about this is there were a few people in Japan who were super into Collegiate blue jean core (adjacent to Japanese Americana) in the 60s - I’m talking obsessed. They finally get the funds to go to the US and they achieve their dream of visiting a real US college Then they describe their utter amazement as the first person walked out was just wearing sweatpants and sloppily dressed and had just woke up and that it was like glass shattering

lowkey that's what a lot of the older japanese americans and korean americans i know appreciate about the states. they like the fact that you can wear/do whatever and people really don't mind.
