How come I see so many people wearing "Henleys", I am obviously getting on as I thought it was a Rover dealers, is it me or is it aiming for the Burberry Baseball cap market ?

The Dogs B******s

They are.

Hysteria1983

Yes, that brand is a bit chavvy, but peope will still wear it.

The Dogs B******s

Its only chavvy because of the fakes that are around

Its the new clothing of choice for the discerning chav,ned scumbag...Its closely being followed by osaka t shirts from superdry,who otherwise make some okayish clothing and those "jesus rocks" belts.
All paid in pound coins from a night out 'earning'.

zip106

A bit like 'Bench', then?

CrisPDuk

No, it's chavvy because the name is writ large across every available inch of cloth


I'm amazed nobody has started a clothing brand called 'SHEEP' yet

The Dogs B******s

SHhhhhhhhhh mr_impreza will want to start that brand

Its chavvy because of the chavvy fake people that wear them.

When we go into town all the "Usual suspects" out on the lash have Henleys tops.

I specifically refused to wear the brand when my mrs wanted to buy me some.

I'm a geek so wear stuff from last exit to nowhere.

CrisPDuk

I refuse to wear anything that has the brand name written on it

If companies want me to do their advertising, they pay me, not the other way round

chris1scouser

People who use words such as "writ" can also be branded chav, as this word doesn't exist along with another common term "innit"
Yes younger people do tend to wear this brand.
Sheep we all are because we all buy clothes from shops whether branded or not.:

Hysteria1983

Surely people don't buy fake Henley's gear? You can get that stuff in th M&M magazine for a few £'s lol.

abbott

was thinking Exactly that , plenty room for fakes in cp company/prada and other QUALITY makes not ****e like Henleys ..



disclaimer// i do own a pair of henleys jeans , but i dont wear them anymore

They are the new generic name in fashion. If you go out at the weekend you can expect to see at least 75% of guys wearing them, and about 25% of them will stab you at some point in the evening.

It wasn't chav at first, Only when the chavs cottoned on to it. A bit like:
Burberry
Bench
Firetrap
G star
Superdry
e.t.c

Very concerned at the ammount of horrible b@stards that were in All Saints as well on saturday.

Normally don't pull people up on spelling or grammar as I suspect I sometimes get it wrong as well, but CrispDuck was getting stick for using "Chav" type words, when it is, in fact, proper British, innit.

Used to get all my tees from Holister in the US, but now they just opened up in the Trafford Centre, so the chav market in the UK has just got another supplier and i will have to look elsewhere for my chilin atire!

If it has a big logo on it somewhere, its usually something for the scumbags to brag about.....
