Find a time machine and set the controls for Newcastle 1990.


First shell suit sighting about 20 seconds into the vid. Not for the faint-hearted.

DON'T PANIC EVERYBODY.............


Top Tip #1 : Just flick a lit match (or cigarette butt) at the offending shell suited person, they will go up like a Roman Candle leaving you to go about your business.

Gazza is scary enough but that video is horrendous! :eek: I was in Liverpool a few years ago and along with duffle coats, there was a heap of young 'uns wearing shell suits. All sorts in Liverpool.

They probably have special, posh shell suits for getting married in.

They were hideous. I'm ashamed to say I fell in love with a doctor who turned up at work one day wearing a shell suit, esp as he normally wore conservative suits. It was pink and lilac in colour - yuck. That was in 1991 when I was a student.
Can't believe it now after looking at that youtube video with Gazza!

Is someone dressing up as the scousers from Harry Enfield for Halloween, by any chance?

I never wore one myself but I have photos of my cousins in them. They make for good blackmail

I had a navy and green one i got for my birthday in 1990. Though it was the best. And the tops used to go great with a pair of jeans for the more casual look.
