When it comes to the items posted above, they fit their theme, but going with designs that stood out more might be better for this particular kit. I am no expert on 80s athletic attire, though. Are there more unique pieces they could have went with instead?

Anyway, i am the type of person who would skip a kit if it had too many items that looked to me similar enough to ones i already have, even if in the end they are not the same. Oh, and straight up recolors would be even worse since i dont care about buying those too.

I do find their choices odd, as someone who happened to own 80’s athletic wear in the 80’s and early 90’s. I would have expected leotards, tights, leg warmers, over size ripped/extra wide/off shoulder tees, short shorts & high striped socks for men, bright colored wind breaker jackets (the ones in the pack don’t look wind breaker-ish to me), and some high pony tail hair with scrunchies and feathered bangs. As cliché as it seems we did wear that stuff, I may still have some of the tshirts and scrunchies.. :D

All of these things sound so much fun actually, haha! I have some of that stuff for sims three, and i like it.

Hmmm, so the era this kit was trying to copy was the 90s after all. I think these items are good for that even if a few are a little similar to older items, which might have been bound to happen. We should take that into account, Op. They are following the theme and this is what it allows them to add, and they arent recolors in the end. Hopefully the next one will be a theme that allows for even more unique designs so you dont feel like things are retextured or whatever the right term is. I have a few suggestions in mind already ?

Admittedly the patterns made me think 80’s, but I kept most of that stuff well into the 90’s personally. I would love a kit with those type of items, to relive my youth.. I was a dancer (ballet & tap) back in those days.
