Saw this Instagram ad, sorta seems like they just post old pictures and sell some weird gear. Kinda weird that they sorta ripped off the newschoolers name to sell some random shit

Are they selling or is it just a content page? If it’s just a content page I don’t really see the problem it’s like a fun play on words

If I remember correctly, they used to post antique ski stuff. Like photos and memories but now it’s mostly pushing products

I followed the rabbit hole.
Oldscholers.com ( there's a bunch of different ones when googled,) sort of shills for Vallon eyewear via links.
They have a Wayne Wong knock off white sunglasses

Honestly was a cool account for a while… just vintage photos of all kinds of resorts, icons, and retro race & hotdog content…

definitely noticed a vibe change when they started selling merch? Got less interesting, less authentic, more spammy. I think homie either sold the account or found a way to monetize w some partnerships and absurd markups on mediocre shwag.

either way kind of an irrelevant bot account IMO I unfollowed years ago…. Now they show up as “sponsored posts”

history is cool. but the insta just looks like some crybaby boomer who says that skiing was better back then.

aesthetically pleasing but don't see the hype. goggles actually look kinda nice tho

hype of the insta and the hotdogger posts, not the goggles.
