Fans react to Stranger Things wardrobe inaccuracy
“Stranger Things” viewers noticed a surprising error in the show’s wardrobe in Part 2 of Season 5. In episode 7, Holly Wheeler can be seen struggling to free herself from Vecna’s clutches. While she succeeds in her attempt to do so, the tense scene gives fans a short but clear glimpse of her Under Armor undershirt. While the series is based in the 1980s, Under Armor was founded in 1996.
Unhappy with the show’s failure to maintain continuity in the final season, fans took to X to express their disappointment. An X user with the handle @photogoblinxx Wrote, “Hey what is this Under Armor shirt doing on Holi?? Under Armor didn’t come out until 1996 #StrangerThings5 @Stranger_Things.”
a user with a handle @ArpitAgar_Aurum Wrote, Wait a minute…Holly is wearing Under Armor in 1987?? The brand was invented in 1996?? The fan referenced the infamous “Game of Thrones” slip-up that led to a Starbucks cup appearance in Season 8 of the acclaimed show. Meanwhile, some fans have speculated that the wardrobe malfunction occurred due to excessive focus on Will Byers’ monologue.
An X user with the handle @johnnyroot Expressed this concern in his post. He wrote, “If Stranger Things hadn’t spent 24 hours filming/reshooting Will’s “coming out” scene, they wouldn’t have missed Holly Wheeler wearing a shirt from a company that didn’t even exist in the ’80s (Under Amour).” He also compared this mistake to the one in “Game of Thrones”. The eighth and final episode of “Stranger Things” will be released on December 31 on Netflix.
