Thanks for the tips lads. I now know what not to wear when I'm selling recreational pharmaceuticals.

PM me please, would love a few Xanax bars.

Not really a whole lot the brand can do about fakes. The more popular a brand becomes with a segment that generally does not have the finances to purchase that brand, a gap opens in the market.

Lets be honest, they are more interested in a badge than the benefits of duck down. Sure most of them have argos microfibre duvets.

If the counterfeiters can sell a piece of crap with a fake badge on it,manufactured for €10 for €60, then drug dealers are in the wrong business

There are Chinese reps that even the companies themselves have difficulty in telling if they are fake

Passed over the Luas tracks in Rialto on Friday and saw 5 lads going the other way, 4 wearing North face jackets and one wearing a "man bag" that in my time as a teenager would have been called a handbag, when did this fashion start??

You see men in France and Eastern Europe wear these little bags.

I think you only see them in Ireland in very recent years.

De Niro became a taxi driver to prepare for Taxi Driver.
Some of the Trainspoting lads hanged around with ex-Heroin addicts & Ewan McGregor wanted to inject Heroin into his arm, so just smoked it instead (I think).
Snoop Pearson who was a hitwoman on The Wire, went & took method acting to the next level and eh, killed someone.

A drug dealer on my road had his house raided this weekend. His work uniform is a pair of shorts with a black shiny Canada Goose Jacket.

There is another drug dealer in my estate. Canada Goose gillet, grey North face tracksuit and balenciaga runners.

It's very similar to the late 90s early 00s when Burberry got caught up with Chav Culture. They had to rebrand themselves, get rid of their signature colours.

They dumped them for a good while. The lesser lights are now into different brands so they reignited it.

Four Phucs Ache · 23-06-2020 6:39pm

In the 90s where I grew up it was scanda jackets everywhere and black or blue Levi's with the Nike air max, it was a hiking jacket pulled in tight at the waist and folded up over the arse.

Unzipped a bit so you could also see the Paco jumper.

yourdeadwright · 23-06-2020 6:42pm

You have to laugh cause the designer gear they where on night out is rotten and tacky, worst part is so many older teens wearing it people just presume it's fake,

The big brand designer have coped on its now teenagers who buy there gear, If you can remeber 15 years ago all designer gear had small labels, they where classy brands,
That's gone out the window the splash the brand name across the clothes every where like Nike, Adidas and so on as thats the demographic now buying there gear,

It's even worse when you, see the dealers in there 30s or 40s dressing like the "fashionable" teens, Money can't buy class

The Canada goose coats are knock offs available for about 20 in Moore st. Sh1t quality and very flammable.

Most of the Canada goose are knock offs available for 20-40 euro from dodgy sources.

An awful lot of the grey goose and stone Island gear you see is fake. They do be in the family pub in town selling all sorts. Those lads who are top-heavy wearing bet on Kenzo, armani, north face tops, with bet on skinny jeans, no socks and fluorescent runners are priceless. The lads out in clubs (the local) are gas. The height of fashion and the spitting image of one another.

I use to wear alot of skate and outdoor brands, but now they're everywhere in mass quantities and variations, and the quality is absolutely p*ss poor. Vans for example. I remember buying a basic entry level pair in the early 00's for roughly €40, now that same pair is €85 in schuh.:rolleyes:

+1 on this. Most of the can goose is fake. Not sure about north face - others might know ?

Real North Face wear is expensive, parka's for about 230euros and waterproofs, around 100 - 130. I do a lot of wild camping and have a good bit of their stuff down throughout the years, but now thanks to these $hitrats, if you go up a mountain trail these days and somebody sees ya in the North Face gear they probably think your going up to harvest your crystal meth meadow.

I have an €800 Canada Goose, which got as a present and haven’t wore it once due to scrotes going around in them.

Richard Hillman · 23-06-2020 7:22pm

Scrotes in my day used to wear denim jeans, stripey jumpers and a cap at a 45 degree angle. Then it progressed to tracksuits tucked into their socks.

It is a statement in their eyes, an expression of their 'status' as they see it.

They have €600 +++ to spend on a coat that costs €600+++

They pay in cash because they charge in cash.

Sometimes i go into Brown Thomas to take a piss. Anyway, this one time I was in there, some drug dealer (obviously a drug dealer) was buying this obnoxious-looking handbag in 50-euro-notes. I've never seen so many 50s in my life. He was just whittling them onto the counter, so casual. I kind of disrespect them for putting up with it.

I’ve seen staff in BT have to spray their areas down with aftershave after the “boyz” leave the till because the bang of weed is so strong.

The Travellers you see calling each other out on You Tube seem to have another look, usually tight fitting Puma or Nike t-shirts with knee length shorts, others with a matching hoodie and tracksuit bottoms combo. Then you see a group of them with this look interspersed with older ones donning short sleeved check shirts or the Colm Meaney Irish Dad from The Commitments look, V Neck pullovers with protruding white shirt collars.

Adam9213 · 12-07-2020 11:22pm

One of the main reasons people want to be a drug dealer is because women are highly attracted to them, middle class drug dealers get the best women a lot of people don't realise it because it's not a boyfriend/girlfriend kind of thing it's casual meets and if you're not in the right circles you won't realise it.

Gucci sliders/sandals

Gucci tracksuit (vomit)

Manbags

Balenciaga or moncler jacket (vomit)

Big thick ballymun accents on them with fancy clothes and veneer teeth but their house doesn't even have curtains :V

Also a lot of drug dealers don't make much money weekly they're just good with managing it they might barely spend any cash at all for a whole year and then they start spending some of it on fancy things like clothes which can give off the image that they make a lot of money when they don't.

There's different types of drugs dealers most of the average drug dealers are middle class who just sell weed and coke the middle class are the best clientele for those two drugs.

They employ PR companies as well I'm sure.

They'll be funding hospitals next.

I dont know any 'middle class' drug dealers that sell weed.

Coke is a little different yeah, obviously it's way more expensive for the quantity so you would have people with money actually buying it.

If I ever knew anyone that sold coke they didn't have the designer gear to show their 'status', since they weren't typical scumbags trying to prove a point

It's a gateway brand. One minute you're wearing a black North Face rain jacket in Winter. The next thing you know you're sweating in a Moncler camo quilted coat and EA7 shorts in 25deg heat.

I obviously live a very sheltered life as I'm not familiar with Moncler.

I just googled that coat, it's hideous.

Rubberchikken · 14-07-2020 12:21am

God, I wear a north face jacket. Outdoor one with removable fleece for summer.
I hope no one suspects me if drug dealing:) genuinely didn't know that these lads Dressed like that.

Canada Goose expedition parka in camo or fire engine red is another stylish number if you're looking to impress.

The ones wearing the cheap name brands are just muppets trying to make a name for themselves.But they are still slaves to their connects and often in debt.It is just embarrassing at this stage how they try to look the bigger man.

They're all ugly coats though, I don't know how anyone could like them.
