Yeah, it's not a good look. Fila, Ellesse, Tacchini etc was designed for youngsters. It looks cheap and nasty as well. I'm 50 now and i reckon that at my age i can get away with a nice light jacket, Pyrenex is my thing at the moment, a decent pair of jeans, Ball are a favourite, but i give the Adidas shoes a miss, too full on. I like Novesta with a pair of jeans.

Went up to ASDA this afternoon for some nibbles for tonight, quick browse in the fashion dept and treated myself to some very fashionable jeans at £10, 2 pairs for £16 if you are feeling flush, a two pack of long sleeve shirts at £14.0, and a full zip cardi at £16.0, fully kitted out at £40.0, the bonus is once you have worn them for a night you put them in the work clothes drawer for the next DIY project in the house.

Very true mind, you can kit yourself out in acceptable gear for a decent price nowadays. Some people spend hundreds and still look like an unmade bed.

Decent for bundies and socks and the odd hoodie etc cheap football shirts as well.

If your in shape youd look better in Asdas own than a fat fecker in Stone Island.

Even if your in shape dressing as an 80s hooligan is questionable.

Get on it sludge.

[dembethewarrior]

Long sleeve t shirts ?

Long sleeve polo shirts ?

Long sleeve t-shirt and t-shirt over the top is a winner I've heard..goes well with chinos.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

It's a clear out

I've not seen Ball jeans in years.
Do they sell them in Cardiff?
Best I could find recently...to try on at least was Replay.

Online. Replay are tidy. C-17 still about as well.

[The Bloop]

There's a vintage clothing shop in Royal Arcade where you might be able to pick up some odd casual gear.

Loved C17 early 90s.
Just had a look at the website...they are still selling the 80s patchwork jeans 😀

[valleys caveman]

Anyone remember Gentlefolk jeans

I got a pair of Wranglers for XMAS that go very nicely with my Cherry Red DMs.

Went in to town a few weeks ago (not Cardiff) and left my coat in the car. It was bloody freezing. Saw Peacocks had a sale on so I bought a black Harrington jacket for 20 quid. Black with a gold lining. The previous one was a two-tone one from upstairs in the market about 1972. Can't remember the name. Was it Glyns or Gwynnes or something like that?

This has turned from help out a fashion novice to who wants it with Millwall after the game at Cardiff Central

[Rogersblue]

Can get Harrington jacket on amazon for £12.99 .

[Jordi Culé]

Marks and Sparks now is it :)

Currently wearing Adidas Stefan Edberg tracksuit, Aquascutum scarf wrapped sinisterly around my face, deerstalker hat and a Fila headband. Goes great with the Mille goggles.

My missus thinks I've over done it.

No way would I wear a crown of thorns.

Hmmm.

Perhaps if they were Armani?

I think Harrington jackets are back in vogue. Seen a few out and about lately.
Reduced from £45 to £33. How much were they back in the day?

Barracuta are nice, managed to find one for about £65 a few yrs back, about £250 new nowadays, timeless and look ok even as you age unlike the previous mentioned sportswear
