GIZMODO.com on the Plaid Shirt
Kristen Philipkoski of GIZMODO.com called us to talk about the plaid shirt last week. She says, “Plaid shirts will always represent for me Kurt Cobain, riot grrrls and grunge music. That’s because I’m self-centered and lived my twenties in the ’90s. But today when I see my husband putting on a plaid shirt, it inspires entirely different connotations. He couldn’t be less grunge, but he is a certified geek. And it suits him perfectly.” She covers the history of plaid from tartans to Kurt Cobain, including Pendleton’s part of the story.

I have 2 pendletons from 1977. One is red, white & blue with an spread winged eagle in the middle. The other is a brown & orange indian pattern. Are they valuable?
Hi, we don’t do valuations of older blankets. From the description, you have a Chief Eagle, and those sell well on eBay (they have been retired for ten years). You can see it on this page: https://www.pendleton-usa.com/custserv/custserv.jsp?pageName=RetiredLegendaryBlankets&parentName=Heritage
