Well... Here in the Netherlands we don't have them. in the 80s I believe we did go from Longjohns (those one piece things from just above the feet to the shoulder) to those small triangle things with a tank top. So i never seen them. Oh yes! I know all about that stuff! Being poor and living in the country when I was young, I learned about all of that when winter time came! Nothing keeps you as warm as LongJohns, or as my cousin and wife call them, " Long Handles"
