Bill Cosby: NKU

Friday, 26 August 2011 Comments Off


Now, the Converses didn’t happen until you hit maybe your teens, because Converses cost a lot.
But if you were running track and field, you weren’t anything unless you had adidas. 
But they were so expensive that you didn’t get them unless you had it in writing that you were going to the Olympics.
...While I was doing I Spy, I began to wear the adidas. 
My reason for wearing them with everything except a suit was the other stuff that Bob Culp and I did  - so much walking all over the place. 
But the uniform also comes from my background, I guess. 
In the projects, you just wore sneakers - the ones without the brand names - with everything but your best suit.


Never Knowingly Underdressed: 
Bill Cosby, interviewed in Playboy Magazine by Maury Z Levy, circa 1980-81.
