Sonny-Burnett Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 I wasn't much of a fan either of the powder blue suit Crockett wore in Prodigal Son, but what bothered me particularly was the fit. It looked to be too long both in the jacket and sleeves, as well as the slacks as they rode high up on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicegirl85 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) I think the powder-blue jacket looks overall too big--very wide padded shoulders as well as too-long sleeves. However, thinking back it seems like that oversized shoulder look was popular, as were the higher-waisted, pleated loose-fitting trousers. Like it or not, some of that fit may be just intentional for the style (just as with the short, striped toreador-looking jacket). I just remind myself that the squad didn't always choose their clothes by personal taste, but by what was available in the confiscated goods stock Edited August 14, 2016 by vicegirl85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airtommy Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Crockettt asked me where this photo was taken, so I marked it here: https://binged.it/2bsetmL They are in Jose Marti Park near downtown Miami. The camera is looking northward. Between Tubbs and Castillo is the 4-story East Coast Fisheries building that has since been demolished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daytona365 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) It's a spencer jacket. It became quite popular throughout the mid-eighties...I remember I had one myself, though plain navy blue. While I mostly agree with Jerry B. on this being the worst Crockett outfit ever, at the same time it was kind of post-modern, as it somewhat foreshadowed S3 style. Sonny was wearing a lot of those short jackets in S3. As someone said in this thread, they were experimenting in those early episodes...things had to look expensive and hence sometimes over the top - confiscated clothes from decadent people. Still today, expensive quite often ain't exactly tasteful and a lot of rich folks dress horrible. This was an exeptional outfit in Vice-terms, for me personally I find it way too busy with those narrow and mixed stripes, and on top, it's even earth tones. The t-shirt had its first appearance in 'No Exit' by the way, and it looked odd already then, combined with a grey chambray blazer (see below) As for S2 clothing... I've said it before in other posts, IMHO some were cool and defining the image of MV that people keep in mind to the day, some just went over the top and were too elaborate. S1 was more pure in some sense. Expensive brands, sometimes combined in a very bold way that was breaking the ground for a new, unique concept of cop show Edited August 15, 2016 by daytona365 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Okay, I've FINALLY uploaded the little videos from my trip in May 2016. Here are the two I made at Jose Marti Park. They are short, so you may do a lot of pausing to see what you want to see. I thought these were fitting here with all Jose Marti Park talk. I'll repost these (and the others) in my May 2016 Vacation thread. Edited August 14, 2016 by Dadrian 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D. Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Daytona74.......The blue jacket Crockett is wearing looks real nice. The only problem is, it looks a little big on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chloe Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 My very ex husband had a jacket suit just like this in grey circa 89-90 ...was very in vogue at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost looks like a ladies one. Yes I don't like this one at all- he only wears it in this Season 1 episode I believe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Hanna Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I liked the gold striped t-shirt when it was with the solid coloured blazer like here, but yeah…the horizontal and vertical stripe combo is a bit too much 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this jacket, it looks good. In the marshmallow pic., his shoulders look so wide & the length is almost like an overcoat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
