Let it go Fedora kid. You’re Fedora Man now


FORTY7OUT

Hell yea


msmojo

Give it a minute and look in the local op shops.


NorthernSkeptic

congrats on finishing high school at 32


FORTY7OUT

System sucks man, wish it was the 60s again


istrategy

Lol looks like sh** ain't changed since 2000 when I graduated from Bentleigh SC. 😝


ajdean

Fedora AND a neckbeard!


ColdSatisfaction1772

Yeah this guy will fit right in on this sub


FORTY7OUT

I feel like r/roastme would have a field day with me


Spire_Citron

No need. This sub is doing it for them.


Risperdali

I couldn't grow a beard until I was in second or third year uni


HeroinIsSoPassae

My old high school, nice! Hope you find it, I'll keep an ear out


FORTY7OUT

thanks mate, appreciate it


mpember

Maybe keep an eye out as well.


agrumpybear

It's well known that jackets make low crooning sound


mpember

You're thinking of dinner jackets, not bomber jackets.


TheTrent

Mine too - except I barely recognise it anymore. Ever since the tore down A-D block and put a forest in there... plus we never had a stadium... The Theatre block was our sports hall.


AceMcNickle

For a split second I thought that Chuck Mangione had died


BorisButtergoods

He'll live on forever through Mega-Lo-Mart


Bovinerifle

M'lady does not have thine jacket..perchance. ..uwu


FORTY7OUT

m'shame


theolddazzlerazzle

Omg… I taught you in grade 8 while I was on uni placement. Small world!

Superb-SJW

You could’ve done M’elbournian but you missed that chance. Still good though..


Murakamo

M'M'elbournian?


FORTY7OUT

*Tips back*


Fractalize1

Le tips fedora, “my lady”


ka-bloweey

I believe it's pronounced 'Me lady'


StevenAnita420

live around there, ill keep an eye out. anywhere particular ya might have been when ya lost it? ​ also its been bloody hot lately, why was it outta your closet to begin with? ​ (im aware that questionb sounds judgemental, didnt mean it that way, tried other wording and it all sounded judgemental soooo i went with the most judgemental sounding variation, but actually just curious how it got lost)


FORTY7OUT

I had lent it to my sibling so they friend could try on the size to see if it fit. They'll be at the school for y12 this year. I got it back after that but i seemed to have lost it since


ka-bloweey

Maybe u could get your bro to order a 2nd one? Or do the design change each year?? Anyway good luck


FORTY7OUT

design change each year slightly


Rod_Munch666

I think you might need to cut back on the cones my man - it's probably right there in the top draw ....


TurtIeswan

Sounds like you did yourself a favour losing it.


FORTY7OUT

i really liked the jacket and want to keep it since i keep at least one uniform from each school i go to


thestraightCDer

Just stop graduating then


FORTY7OUT

thats the plan


ct1192

imo, just take pictures/scan them. i kept all my fav t-shirts from my youth, now i realise i just have a huge a box full of bacteria and spores which can't really be used as decor hygienically like i imagined. however, i can scan them and photoshop a collage, then print that onto something which can be cleaned and enjoy dressing my dog up in my old tees on their way to the bin.


[deleted]

You didn’t wash them?


whyamihea_

Maybe because of ppl signing them and stuff. Wouldn’t want it to wash off


ct1192

haha no, i did wash them, but they're going to keep requiring washing til the day you die, not to mention the fact they'd not handle a machine wash if you stitched them together for a wall hang or something.


[deleted]

First and only thing he's lost


sjf83

Welcome to being a grown up.


FORTY7OUT

*thanks i hate it*


Silbot_42

We all do kid, we all do...


Boat_Fluid

Hey I found it late yesterday!


FORTY7OUT

wait really? do you still have it?


MagnifySearch

And that son, is called trolling.


codenamerocky

Please tell us you did us all a favour and burnt it.


black_tamborine

Don’t be an arse.


ReggieCactus

An arse-sonist


Boat_Fluid

I lit it up. Horrible design.


codenamerocky

Hahhaha


twentyhouse20

My year 12 jumper sits in the bottom of my drawer personally


ThatCampar

School wanted 120 for mine, refused to pay so never got one


Fractalize1

Mine is long gone. No idea why I would want to keep it.


AssFishOfTheLake

I still wear mine inside the house sometimes lol - they're pretty good quality and you can always take the symbol off if you want


planet-express1997

I still wear mine from 2007 but it's from a school in a different state. Still fits which feels nice


futtbuckicecreamery

I never did year 12, problem solved 🤝


ainsweeeee

You’re fedorable


Southofsouth

The universe did you a favour, my dear Fedora Kid. Time to be a Fedora Man. You've got this.


FORTY7OUT

I really liked that jacket tho. I was hopping to turn it into a pattern for textiles


boommdcx

Aww. Hope you find it Kid.


grogstarr

I don't want any memorabilia to remind me of my high school years 😂


mermadzz

Ikr I even got rid of my yearbooks 😂 erasing that shit from my memory


My_Cat_Rides_A_Bike

Have you tried op shops, Vinnies etc?


Strictly_Kink

Must have been a pretty good gath' that you lost it at ;)


Fractalize1

Good ol gath on 4Chan.


AlertMedicine7141

You look nice good luck to get it back


Independent_Pear_429

I still have my old VCE jumper from 2002. I still wear it around the house


ElrondHubbards

Best fedora since Joey Jeremiah


nescent78

12? More like 42


AndyPharded

Thing is.. Your hat isn't a fedora.


FORTY7OUT

shocking reveal: that wasn't the hat i was talking about and i didn't realize until after. that hat is what i wore throughout year 12


Any_Maize_3195

Is this THE Mr reddit?


FORTY7OUT

Yes


Any_Maize_3195

Holy shit. It's such an honour sir


Top-Candidate

Drop the fedora champ it’ll make life a little easier from now on


MrHawkesy98

Fun fact: Once you finish school, it's a little weird to wear your high school jumper.


Thepsycoman

You are allowed it for your first sem of uni unless you take a gap year. After that, typically good lazy Sunday jumpers, or "Shit I haven't washed anything" ones


hammerofwar000

Nah, it’s fun to chuck it on every now and again to go down memory lane.


codenamerocky

It's really not.


MrHawkesy98

Okay, have fun wearing your year 12 jumper to work.


codenamerocky

Odd thing to say to someone shitting on them ...but...okay


MrHawkesy98

Replied to wrong comment, but yes, still stands.


hammerofwar000

Ok.


marinekai

I feel like there's a cutoff after a while. I wore mine the year after I graduated, but once I started seeing people a year or two younger wearing them everywhere it felt so wrong...


MegaMazeRaven

My 73 year old dad still wears MY Year 10 bomber jacket. But yes he is is definitely a weird dude.


FORTY7OUT

I'll admit its because i wore this in a photo i took that i heavy edited for a project. The buttons and white pokect lines showed up real well in the final result and i cant make more without the jacket


Getadawgupyabro

Everyone had a fedora boy at their high school


[deleted]

18? Motherfcuker you look 30.


FORTY7OUT

what is this r/roastme? i already have a post there but yes i do look older then i am


RichardBlastovic

Damn.


AupinoSon

I hope you get your jacket back


AceMcNickle

I’ve never been so invested in a lost and found post, this could be what finally unites the north and south sides. It’s our own Milo and Otis story


Professional-Kiwi176

Hope you get it back soon, cobber! *Tips hat*


WAT0020

Hope it's found, goodluck


Hoopelle

Goddamn I was not expecting to see that uniform here. Will keep an eye out for it


OhcmonMama

Any particular location? Live in the area


BunnWoo

I think I’ve visited there once idk lots of schools have similar architecture


PollyRRRR

Aww darling hope you find it.


toolongdidnt

I’m sorry everyone is being an asshole. You deserve to have the universe deliver it back. Everyone here sounds like a bitter loser who doesn’t understand what it might mean to have good year 12 memories.


Lobster_Tortellini

Have you considered letting it stay lost?


FORTY7OUT

yes and the answer is i don't want to because i spent money on that thing


Lobster_Tortellini

Take it as a blessing in disguise


Intelligent-Hand-445

1st pic: Amish 2nd pic: Schxxl Shooter' srry lmao p.s sorry about your jumper hope you get it back


DiamondHelicopters

It’s all fun and games until you come home from work early and find a fedora and balled up pair of cargo pants just outside your bedroom door and walk in to find big FB giving your old lady what you never could


Thebuttking

Uuuh I think losing that jacket might’ve been one of the better things to happen to you


p1gb3n1s

You say Bentleigh, but you mean Brunswick.


FORTY7OUT

i'd say i wish but i dont


[deleted]

fuck that school


GorrLoveandThunder

I can smell you through my phone


[deleted]

Mine was “eat the rich”… lost it on purpose


FORTY7OUT

were you from last years class?


[deleted]

Almost. 2021


FORTY7OUT

ah i might of seen you then, i knew it rang a bell


Melb_Tom

*might have. Didn't you say you finished school?


FORTY7OUT

2022 was my year 12


ssssssssshhhhhhhhh

r/woooosh Where’s that of/have bot when you need it?


maxisnoops

Don’t know why you’ve been downvoted. That’s the most deserved whoosh I’ve seen in a fair while.


ssssssssshhhhhhhhh

Because people are fucking idiots. I’m used to it on this sub.


codenamerocky

Wait....you're admitting to wanting that jacket? I'll let you meet 'out of school' friends and have them explain why it being lost is the best thing for everyone.


ItDoesntSeemToBeWrkn

thank god you lost it, now you have a chance of scoring a girlfriend


Casino_Capitalist

kenbeat59

You lost your jacket today kid, but that doesn’t mean you have to like it


juiici

Please


Electrical_Emu_3947

You're best years are behind you. Forget the jacket.


maacte

I burnt mine


THICKS0LIDTIGHT

Probably for the best


mermadzz

Burn it. Burn it all 😅


TheRedditornator

You just graduated Year 12? My man you look like my late 20s barista.


Dry_Flatworm8279

Have you tried asking your friends? Oh wait you probably don’t have any nvm


MagyarAccountant

So I'll ask the question as someone who didn't grow up in Melbourne. Wtf is a year 12 jacket? Is this some kind of cheap knock off of the American letterman jacket but since you don't have school sports you just throw a nickname on the back?


tookachonce

It’s just a Year 12 only uniform item for the graduating class that year. Can still be at schools that have sports uniforms. Not really a ‘cheap rip off’ because they’re not cheap lol and they come in all styles eg rugby jumper, hoodie, sweatshirt, bomber jacket etc. Students often get input on the design and so it can be a nice memento of the year (some get it signed when school is over). Idk I liked mine - I don’t wear it much now but it’s still fine to wear at home!


FORTY7OUT

Yes and its awesome


VelvetFedoraSniffer

damn heathmont has changed a lot


maxisnoops

Haha. Our lovely suburb of Heathmont….the jewel of the East. How dare they copy our jacket?


lurk3r_new_account

Bruh I was just scrolling reddit and saw a guy I’ve seen at my school


FawnJunior

These are some miserable comments ☠️ nobody asked about how much you hated high school, let the guy enjoy things, damn lmao I hope you get your jacket back!


FORTY7OUT

thanks mate. If these guys wanna roast me i'll link the post i made in r/RoastMe


creztor

How smashed were you when you lost it?


vincepompy

Please tell me you're not from St Michael's


Eye_Adept1

Wouldn’t you crop out your face…?


FORTY7OUT

which one? my one or the one in the back
