    I wear tracksuit pants all the time but not your usual shoite, usually Rugby Gear, nothing wrong with it at all, they are comfy thats the main thing, not everybody who wears tracksuits is a scummer, i just buy the bottoms never the tops, it beats wearing jeans all the time or work clothes, jeans are all too common, just go into any pub/club and its a sea of various shades of blue jeans. Boring

    My wife, who I should mention is not Irish, and me (I am) wear tracksuit bottoms at home. It's comfortable. I almost never wear them outide as I get too many funny looks, and sometimes even comments. She does wear them outside, and mostly gets away with it as she does not look like the typicial female tracksuit wearer.

    Why do footballers wear such god-awful suits. Open any edition of "Hello!" magazine and you get John Terry, Steven Gerrard or whoever wearing some terrible pinstripe suit with weird pointy shoes and an oversized tie, maybe even a flat cap.

    Seeing "skangers" in tracksuits and posh types in doobs doesn't get my attention anymore really. But people who wear flat caps, especially indoors, just makes my mind boggle.

    A very close mate of mine wears tracksuits exclusively. He cant stand jeans, or trousers. And a shirt doesn't go very well with a pair of adidas and nike airs. It wrecks his head (and mine too) the amount of people who just assume hes a waster because of his taste in fashion. THe funny thing is most of these people are completely shocked when they hear he is studying philosophy. Its almost as if, if someone wears a tracksuit then thats it, they have to be a waster. They cant be in the shop to buy something they're there to rob it, they cant be doing anything good with their life and without a shadow of a doubt they are scum. I swear to god the Irish attitude to tracksuits really annoys me.

    If he is studying philosophy, he is a waster. How is he going to contribute to the economy when he finishes college - sitting around all day thinking about life?

    Nah, we just like to pay for our stuff when we go into a shop, instead of stealing it.

    Speaking of canes – are crutches part of scumbag fashion? It seems that 5% of the lads use them. Is it considered "street" to have one or is from hitting the wrong vein/punishment beating thing?

    Crutches are more of a junkie thing..for junkie on junkie violence.:)

    Of course there will always be exceptions. But I bet if you took a sample of 100 Irish shoplifters, the number of tracksuit wearers would significantly outweigh non-tracksuit wearers.

    You could apply the same to a sample of teenagers pushing prams, drug-users, people with IQ less than 100, people with previous criminal records, people scrounging off the state, etc

    So if someone doesn't contribute to the economy then they're a waster..... thats a good philosophy right there. What do you contribute to the economy may I ask?

    Oh nearly forgot. I don't know if his plans have changed or not, but I know this time last year he planned on finishing college and getting a job in the prison system to help give prisoners (particularly repeat offenders) new perspectives on life. Try to help them see that there is more to life then drink and drugs... that sorta thing. Personally I cant see it working... but at least hes trying :)

    EDIT: I cant remember who said it, but +1 to the person who said tracksuits do not come cheap.
    >implying studying Philosophy is the opposite of being a waster.

    Hey, I'm pissed off that I can't grow my facial hair in a neat little square under my nose but I don't really want to deal with that stigma. Tracksuit pants are alright, I wear them when I'm sick, particularly hungover or at the gym/playing sports. But I know they look scummy and lets be honest, jeans aren't really that uncomfortable.

    I wear Nike tracksuit bottoms a lot, have a few pairs in navy and grey. I wear them in the gym and sometimes in college too. I'd never wear a full tracksuit though.

    Scumbags wear tracksuits all the time, usually with a Celtic/Shamrock rovers jersey and a gold chain. And their "motts" wear the full Adidas tracksuit with massive hoop earrings and their hair pulled back.

    I think it's OK to wear tracksuits sometimes with a T-shirt. I know I could never go around in jeans every day. If you want to wear tracksuit bottoms but don't want people to think you're a scumbag wear an Abercrombie t-shirt to avoid any confusion :pac:

    tracksuits can be fine..it's the guy wearing them that makes a whole lot of difference!!!

    take a scum,dress him with Armani clothes and he will still be a knacker....


    ps:some men are sexy in their tracksuits bottom and t-shirt ... :P
