Though it may look like Kenny Clay (‘25) is wearing an elevated streetwear style, he is actually wearing a relaxed style from past formality in the 1950s. “I have this really nice paisley print, floral print, button-down shirt,” Kenny said. His UNK shirt has its origins in the oversized 1950s knit shirt, a perfect combination of business-chic during the day and casual at night that increased comfortability. Similarly, the cargo pants were invented for a new military need. In the 1930s, with the emergence of tanks and other mechanized equipment in war, the “Service Dress” became obsolete, and the new cargo pants emphasized functionality. “I’ve been trying to graduate to a mature type of style,” Kenny said. The perception of the formality of Kenny’s outfit today is a revealing juxtaposition of the otherwise perception of leisure in the 50s.

Anyone walking by could hear the best tunes coming from the library that drew in a crowd of people. Kenny and Leia do not have record players yet, so for now, they are DJing using a laptop set up. “I just want to push my music agenda,” Kenny said. “Steph [Ma (‘25)] said this is just a lame excuse to be on AUX, but I’m gonna capitalize off that.”](https://webbcanyonchronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Albornoz-Antecol-DJ-Kenny-GRAPHIC-1200x900.jpg)
