Transit strike fashion
The only lasting result, as I understand it, from the last New York City transit strike, was the Reeboks-and-gym-socks-with-your-business-suit look. People got used to wearing them on their walking commutes and then didn't part with them when the trains started running again.
So you have to wonder what will catch on this time. My money's on rugged hiking boots and hats with ear flaps.

I wish the lasting legacy of this transit strike was that no cars are allowed past 96th street without 4 or more people in them.
In the urban portion of a city all transport should be mass transit or walking.
