Sweatbands

Sweatbands became a popular fashion item during the 1970s and 1980s, primarily due to the rise of athletic and fitness trends during that time. The fitness craze led to an increased emphasis on sporty and casual fashion, and sweatbands became a symbol of athleticism and an active lifestyle.

Athletes, including tennis players like Bjorn Borg and basketball players like Magic Johnson, often sported sweatbands during their matches, contributing to the mainstream popularity of the accessory.
