Combination of “frat” and “ratchet.” Describes the typical attire of a frat daddy, i.e. the combination of a Hawaiian shirt with Chubbies and Sperrys. For some odd reason, fraternities have now turned to wearing tacky printed button down shirts, once reserved for balding middle-aged men, with shorts so
short that they could be mistaken for a gay man from a distance. Concerning the last component of the new fratastic outfit, many a frat daddy have probably never even stepped foot on a
boat, thus making the Sperry’s
wet deck shoe traction aspect
useless. This new trend has spiraled out of all control and is currently holding fashion hostage, thus making it uniquely ratchet: fratchet.
Guy 1: Dude, is he really wearing a
camo button down with
American flag short shorts and boat
shoes?
Guy 2: Yeah man, he’s looking hella fratchet.
