The 1970s must have taken place on a different planet. These photos of men’s clothing from that decade leave us drowning in astounding mustard knits, loud patterns, high waists, way-too-skimpy briefs, and other men's fashion faux pas that we don't have enough of imagination to describe 40 years later.
As synthetics fell in price, casual men's style garbs were suddenly available to many fashion-forward young men looking to cut loose. Since polyester doesn’t require ironing, the “wash and wear” revolution is in full view of these models with their skin-tight threads and jumpsuits that leave nothing to the imagination. A 70s fashion Travelknit suit jumps out of the suitcase ready to wear, keeping with the decade’s focus on spontaneity and indulgence.
Scroll down for our pick of the worst 70s men's fashion pieces. And as a final note, don’t look at the prices in the funny ads! You’ll only resent H&M even more!

" Lemme just stand here looking sexy while i hold this Chicken upside down" WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE LOL!! xD
If we weight these knits down with enough rocks we can drown them and no one will ever know!
Pierce Brosnan? George Lopez?!! Didnt expect to see so many celebs in these ads lol
Because two big shit-brown patches on a guy's butt cheeks is what the ladies love!
The kid in the bird shirt is slowly realizing that this photo shoot was a bad idea.
Those days people call this 'Funky', today people call this 'Gay', basically it's all matter of perspective and prejudice

Wankest comment I've ever read. Well done.
What has been seen, cannot be unseen...
I don't remember my dad wearing anything like this !
...luckily
That's because men who wanted to become dads didn't wear that crap.
I wonder if this is thanks to your brain that suppressed those memories or that he did not wear clothes like this.. either way be grateful ;)
