Nova 969’s Merrick and Rosso are making fashion dreams come true, declaring tomorrow as International Trackie Daks Day!

The breakfast pair want people to feel warm and fuzzy inside and out, challenging listeners to “go business on top, and weekend on the bottom”.

Merrick and Rosso are appealing for people to wear their trackie daks to work: “Be brave – try wearing your trackie daks to the office on Friday with a shirt and tie, or work them back with a pair of kitten heels and hit the shops!”

“We’ll even give you permission! You can log onto the Merrick and Rosso page on nova969.com.au to download our official permission slips to give to the boss, allowing you to break office dress code. And, we have DIY badges to show the world you’re taking part!

“We’ll also be trialling trackie daks’ effectiveness as an alternative Aussie flag, letting them flap in the breeze from our Leyland P76.

“To make you feel even warmer and fuzzier, we’re encouraging all International Trackie Daks day aficionados to donate to Mission Australia. Details are also on the website.”
