I always liked the casual/trendy scene, but could never afford the clobber.
Pringle jumper (second hand) pair of Lois cords and a pair of Trimm Trabs turned me into a Poundland trendy.
Sergio Tacchini tracksuit tops were three weeks wages for me Whatever happened to them?
Any of you lot spent more than you should have on ''gear.''

gazelles for me
Woodies used to take a lot of my money at the time, but you knew others would also be wearing the same, so used to train it down to London and get the odd red or dead shirt
Can never understand this lark of paying stupid prices for gear made in the same sweatshops as places like Primarc and Peacocks
I never understood fans not wearing a decent coat in dodgy weather just to leave an overpriced sweater on show on a matchday. They'd undoubtedly end up saggy and misshapen, but that didn't matter cos the label was still on show.
One of the Kinks best songs.
I saw a bloke at a party recently wearing a Stone Island jumper. I thought 'he has to be British". Turns out he was from London and a West Ham supporter. I don't think he appreciated me being a Cardiff fan, I think I cramped his style a little as I was able to hold all his stories to account.
Can't beat the old duffler (coat not bags)
I was a scruffy git then and continue to be one now.
However, I have always bought good shoes which can be an expensive vice but I have pairs which are decades old but going strong.
The sales are a blessing in disguise.
I only buy from Barkers as they have a last that suits my feet.
Full price their shoes retail at £350-450. However, their sales give up to 40% off and even bigger discounts can be had from their seconds store.
I normally look to pay around the £150 mark.
