Perhaps I'm miss remembering but Bench was a skate brand in the early 90s, before everybody started wearing it.
I'm not going to say it was cool, but you could only get it in skate shops in that early period.

I’m sure I remember it being advertised in RAD / early Sidewalk maybe, so I lumped it in with whatever else I saw next to it. Also bought a Bench longsleeve from the one intimidating boutiquey fashion/skate shop in my town that also had Fuct decks for sale, where I wasn’t allowed to buy Slap magazine.

I used to skateboard as a teenager and my sister wore Bench.
So she’s cooler than you?
