ah them were the days. never had Xworkx cause they were raver gear and I was a METALLER!
But I remember the jeans with Cypress hill and House of pain patches etc sewn onto them. Used to get them in Hairy legs on talbot st. Someone needs to find pictures of all this gear from back in the day.

Had a pair of x-worx jeans and a black Eclipse (I think) bomber jacket with a big smiley face on the back!

Went through that phase too:

Sepultura Chaos AD T-shirt (my prized possession)

Black Combat Jacket

Black Combat trousers

Cypress Hill Jellybag hat

Big wooly jumpers

Black Doc Marten / Caterpillar boots

School bag destroyed with Grafitti:

"Body Count" "Cop Killer" "**** the Police" "NWA" "Public Emeny" "Metallica" "Skid Row"

House of Pain - Despite the fact they only had one song.

There was always a big connection between all the metalers and the hip-hop heads.

I suppose it helped to define them against all the ravers.

Anyone remember the Crossover soundtrack for the film "Judgement Night" ?

Oh of course I forgot that Pantera t-shirt for:

"Vulgar display of power"

With some fella getting a punch in the face.

With clothes like this it's no wonder I never got any:)

Oh and those black leather biker jackets with the manky tippex slogans written on them.

Those were the bad boys in my school.

X-worx were made using child labour! I know this for a fact because I was the bloody child! :mad:

My mam used to do all of the embroidery on X-worx and Eclipse jeans and jackets. She ran her own embroidery company from the house so they would deliver loads of boxes of jeans and stuff all the time, they were bloody everywhere, so my mam used to have me move all the stuff and pack the boxes and crap like that, and I was paid about 20p an hour.

So I would just like to say to anyone who ever bought a pair of X-worx jeans, I hope you liked them, you bastids

I had another brand called Eclipse, I think that was the name of them anyway.

I remember crying for british knights? runners first got them then few moths later looking for xworx jeans was told no:( had to wait for my bday!:(

I loved the baf jacket wore it til it was in bits!

Had me a pair of XworX and insanely baggy Eclipse jeans too. I was a "metaller" too though, so is it any wonder I didn't fit in........

Dun laoire

Two tone jeans. Black and red or Black and green. Haha

-=BomB-45=-

Scored me an Eclipse tracky top on Ebay not just a few weeks ago. Best £4 I ever spent...

120_Minutes

i managed to avoid this fashion as i was going through my "parker lewis" phase: jordans, slacks and paisley shirts.....oh **** that sounds just as bad.

i loved my old KLF t shirts though....wish i still had them

freddyf

X-works Jeans two size's two big and LA Raiders hoody.

I tought i was hard as nails wearing them clothes, until i got into a fight and realised i fight like a girl.

I had a pair of british knights. I think they where red & white with a big plastic bubble on the back.

The guy that sold the jeans up'd his game a year later by selling levis 501

pow wow

Gravity jeans ftw. And those little runner-boot things in pretty vile colours. But my all time faves were the slightly padded jackets (kinda like a hooded parka) with a handy pocket taking up virtually the whole back of it with a nice little plastic fastener thing not unlike a plane seatbelt clasp...because clearly you need to store stuff in the back of your coat for all the world to see.

There's a red Eclipse t-shirt still at my parents' house, well I'm pretty sure it's still there. It was given to me by my eldest brother after he grew out of it.

Never had Xworx or NAFF gear but the older brothers did. I remember 'em well.

Oh Jesus I've had some major flashbacks reading this thread.

moosejoose
