The sight of six friends strolling through Kampung Lahar Tiang in Kepala Batas, clad in full 1970s-inspired attire, evokes a strong sense of nostalgia.
Dressed in long-collared shirts, bell-bottom trousers, and chunky platform shoes, they perfectly embody the bold and iconic fashion of the 1970s.
The group, comprising Muhammad Nur Akbar Abd Rahim, 26; Muhd Faiz Mohd Noor, 30; Muhd Zaini Md Radzi, 31; Mohd Noor Hafiz Abdul Razak, 40; Mohd Mu’az Azmi, 41; and Abdul Halim Kasim, 58, proudly call themselves Northern Retro 70’s (NR70’s).
Faiz said the group’s distinct retro appearance reflects his deep appreciation for the era, which inspired him to start collecting vintage items and wearing them regularly.
A public servant by profession, he said his retro collection journey began over three years ago, sourced mainly from thrift shops and flea markets.
