I don't think its chavvy at all. In fact it washes very well, good material used.
Gstar and barbour (unless your a country gentleman farmer type) is horrific.

I'm a Hackett man myself

Levi's or PS jeans, a bit of Boss or PS for the top half and then anything else that takes my fancy.

Quite taken with some of the Reiss stuff at the moment.

Have never worn Superdry, Bench, etc.

And what's with these 'Pauls Boutique' stuff I keep seeing?
Usually donned by teenage girls with big hooped Lizzy Duke 'gold' earrings and massive foreheads. *shudder*

Used to buy a lot of Holister and Abercrombie teeshirts when i went to the US, and looked really original when wearing them back in the UK.

Now they are available in the UK and all the chavs are wearing them so I sold them on ebay, even though some of them were not in perfect condition and made more than what i paid for them new!

Im actually wearing my superdry hoody now for the first time in about a year, forgot I had it.
I just liked the fact it has bright pink writing on it!
It's also very warm and comfy. It looks a bit 'tidier' than some because it's quite a fitted style rather than big and baggy.
I like it anyway.

I also like the coats that everyone's calling chavvy!!!

Everybody seems to be wearing Jack Wills lately, seems like a cheaper Holister?

Holister is the trailer trash version of Abercrombie so anything cheaper than Holister can only be found in the charity shop

They dont have to pay for housing etc, they rely on taxpayers to pay their way for them, hence they can spend money on such hoodies.

I bought a Superdry jacket years ago. It looked nice, fitted well and was unique with the 3 zips. Then about 6m later i noticed EVERYONE had bought one! I hung it up and there it's staying, until everyone else's has fallen apart.

The fact that this is a discussion about what 'label' is chav/non-chav
kinda says it all really.

What about Hollister? Seems overpriced and all the rage. I thought they had had a power cut first time I went into a shop with my daughter. Dark.

Some on here may be Chav's, but most seem to be cHAVE's who need to tell the world they have a few bob by wearing labels to impress everyone. I'd rather dress in stuff with no name and be beyond your judgement, and in doing so clear my mortgage a bit sooner.

Jack Wills is the same.

Im not all that bothered about designer clobber.
Sure, if I was loaded Im sure I'd buy it but I'm not so I won't pretend I am.

I do like my Uggs, and I'm getting my 2nd genuine pair for Xmas, but i usually shop in river island, next, new look or even primark. Oh and I love DC trainers.
If something looks nice on you, then it looks nice. If you look a ****, then even with an expensive tag on it, you still look a ****.

Jack Wills are having a tough time at present and are looking at closing all of there Aubin & Wills stores after Christmas.

I can understand why, not many 40 year olds want to dress like an undergrad.
