The Casuals Look

the thing he was wearing when he in his old house in the movie?looks like something tou would see on a homeless guy.

 

People dont look hard cause the type of clothes they wear, no matter what theyre wearing. People look hard when they are well built, most guys who wear that style of clothes are generally wee skinny guys - the exact opposite of hard looking lol

 

An old mate of.mine (hun *) is into stone island and all the other chavvy *. Hes on one or more of they chav forums must have added about a hundred people off of them on facebook. And all i get on my news feed is him posting or commenting on pictures of these stupid lookin * jackets. Basically that brand has been hijacked by people (mostly wee fannies) who want to try n look hard.

 

I have a few stoney jumpers and that but the jackets are horrendous. I've seen them in Cruise and one of them was 1000 quid+ and it looked like it was rust or sparks or something on it.

I like Polo and Barbour jackets. The James Bond one above is a topper!

 

Pretty greens jackets are good too.

 

You get aroused???

 

Racist.

 

:smiley-laughing002:

 

I've never heard of any of these brands but a quick google search yields a "meh" from myself.

 

They do a lot of nice clothes and granted some *. There jackets are what they are famous for though. To compare a ma strum jacket to a good quality stone island jacket is laughable. I have 2 jackets one for the winter and one that's not as heavy for when it's not that cold. There jumpers aren't worth the money if say from personel experience but jacket wise they are spot on. Paul and shark do good quality jumpers that last. I've had some around 3 to 4 years and they still look fine.

 

90% of the people I see in Stone Island at the football are 14-15 year old scrawny kids who think they're 'hools'.

Generally I think it's worn by idiots, not that great quality, really expensive and draws the wrong type of attention (as OP mentioned)

I do have an Aquascutum scarf though which I really like.

For jackets I like Fjallraven, Patagonia and Barbour

 

Hijacked by little poofs who seem to save what must.be there last pennies for one outfit as the same little * have never got them off..

Never really liked stone island, especially the jackets with the i'm hard in a police escort with the elbows out so you see the badge..

Most people going for the casual look now were never casuals, which is easy to confuse..

Some smart bits about in ellesse etc but sparingly, i don't do the look at me makes myself or ones you'd see as i don't and nobody should want to draw the attention it gets..
The uber adidas/NB's, ellesse/fila, stone island look with dodge aquascutum scarf and matching cap makes me cringe and is 15 year late..

 

I noticed its like 12 year olds who are wearing them, they probably think its an Italian fashion designer and don't remember them first time around :smiley-laughing002:

 

I've no idea how it's still cool in some quarters, some of the gear I see folk wearing is getting on for a quarter of a century Agos design, after all this stuff started appearing on the terraces in the early 90s, it looked ok then but now there is something "wannabe" about the whole label, much of it is fake in any case.

Moncler is far more contemporary in my view and they make some cracking stuff albeit very expensive, it's very big with the Italians and I remember seeing Juventus fans sporting a lot of that gear when they came over.

Adidas trainers will never go away, just look fantastic albeit I do like the old school Borg Diadora trainers as well

 

Good post ..

I don't like the fruit pastel coloured look from head to toe, yellow trainers and orange jackets and brown tops with back caps etc, fucksake i'm not a colour coordination officer
but it's ridiculous..

Put diadora all white elites and navys on ebay as they are too bulky and look better off than on, same as a saucony shadow 5000 pair, same reason..

Still can't go wrong with gazzells and pumas ..
Moncler is right up there, john smedley , Nigel hall, woolrich, filson , folk, Oliver Spencer, j crew, our legacy, maharishi, some cp and even north face and barbour are all a collective lot i regularly circle for bits amongst others..
