    One year I saved up all my pocket money to buy a Burton's jacket, but by the time I got it everyone was wearing Topman jackets and I was a laughing stock. :(

    They could be going around naked which is worse. It's a trend which will pass.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭hfallada


    As much as I hate the Geordie look. It's better than the 1 all over and track suits they used to wear about 5 years ago. Although its very much a class thing. You don't see UCD south county dublin individuals dress like that.

    I want to see a pic of the OP's chest :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,963 ✭✭✭Meangadh


    If the world did not self combust with the disgustingness of the state of what I wore as a teenager then I think it'll survive that stuff you're describing OP.

    What they wear shouldn't matter anyway so long as they don't cause trouble.

    Am a nudist

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭The_Gatsby


    If that's how they want to dress then let them. I don't see why it's any business of yours OP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 229 ✭✭helpme23


    Its not just saying it is all up 2 what you want to do sir or madam, but who care's I was just thinking what's the story wit it funny old world it is.

    I can't understand it either, OP. What a weird way they dress. Why can't youngsters today dress normal, like my generation for instance.

    For example: for trousers we just wore pleated baggy jeans or stay press slacks. For tops we'd have maybe a Y cardigan or a black and white american football jacket (like Axel Foley's in Beverly Hills Cop) or maybe a Nazi German army parka jacket. For a shirt we'd wear just a collarless Grandfather shirt or Paisley shirt with maybe a leather waistcoat and for footwear some pretty basic suede chelsea boots perhaps or very simple slip on open front leather shoes, with a few tassels and white towel socks for smartness.

    Now you try getting the kids of today to wear sensible clothes like that and they'd bleedin' well laugh at ya so they would.
