    What was someone's opinion on the matter? Why are you yourself conflicted over this?

    Does it depend on the context as to when one wears a tracksuit, such as while running on a track perhaps? Or could it just be lazy Sunday morning attire you require?

    Once upon a time, yes, but due to the rappers, the skangers now wear the high class tracksuits, so if you wear it you'll be associated with them!

    Don't wear black shoes and white socks with it though.
    I've seen that.

    I'd only wear trainers, jogging pants(black or grey no stripes down the side) and a plain no logo t-shirt or hoody when exercising.

    I'd never ever wear one of those nike or other such tracksuits with stripes and huge logo's.

    A habitual tracksuit wearer is likely to be considered either lazy or a skanger, which in the latter the former is a given.

    I've started wearing tracksuits recently, much more comfortable than jeans. I dont see the big deal, wear what you want.
    I mostly wear just tracksuit bottoms and a t shirt... sometimes a jersey of some description, when Im just heading down to the shops or whatever.
    I find that the kind of people who make massive assumptions about people without even having talked to them are the type of people I don't tend to like.

    I once saw an 'ard looking guy darting down the street in Blackpool in his Nikes and tracksuit and was genuinely trying to figure out who he was running from when it dawned on me it was just a bloke out for a run :o

    I wouldn't be seen dead in trackie bottoms no matter how comfortable they were...

    The generalisations in here are unreal.

    Judging somebody because of what type of clothes they wear is quite pathetic if you ask me, how boring would the world be if everybody dressed the same?

    more suited to AH than here tbh.

    Cheers
