Is SuperDry the new Burberry?

boxst

Yes. Although having said that my wife really likes her SuperDry jacket!

Ant

Yes the latest chav attire

I quite like some of the clothing but I think it just looks wrong on a 40 something

ScoobyDoo555

Got to say that my Superdry coat is very comfy, and waterproof, BUT the quality isn't very good - the stitching is coming undone in the armpit. And it's only 4 months old!

Nice coat, but won't have another one.

As for whether or not it's "chav", can't say either way. All I know is that at the age of 39, in a professional workrole, married with kids and a contributor to society, I can't really say that I'm a chav.

TBH, I thought the whole title "chav" was out-of-date: last time I heard the term in earnest was a few years ago...... until now

Matteeboy

It's a fashion fad I just do not get.

Chav wear extreme.

Yes it is, & Barbour looks like it going that way too, although Barbour owners will deny that.

Ant

And 90% of people you see wearing Barbour and SuperDrive is fake.

That's the thing. You can see it on any street market, along side the very suspicious origin trainers, hoodies and track suit trousers.

Ant

That's the thing as if you do but original people will just think its the fake stuff.

Same goes for ugg boots

I've got 2 superset hoodies I find them good quality, very thick and well made.
I don't think it is particularly Chav. A lot of people I work with wear it and we are all late 20s to early 30s in a professional job.

I'd say the new Von Dutch rather than the new Burbery

Yeh of course you are, We all know that bottle of buckfast was gone by 8am this morning and now you're in the doorways collecting for another one

Ant

Who did you **** off to be treated to a place like that?

I wouldn't say SuperDry is chavy and that's not just because I love SD polo shirts and my SD jacket (which is the warmest, best winter jacket I've ever owned lol and unlike ScoobyDoo555 I've found the quality pretty darn good!).
I'd say it's becoming more the new, up scaled Henleys.

As for Barbour, it's only really the pikeys up here who wear that (again aside from myself but I'm a country boy so I have a valid excuse to wear it!). But all theirs is undoubtedly fake!

Luan Pra bang

I have some super dry polos because they are comfortable and I often wear them under my Barbour jacket with a flat cap while walking my two rottweilers. If you had a chav-ometer I just blew it up. I do like to think though that seeing as I drive about in a mud covered discovery attired with flat cap and Barbour I look more like a farm owning pikey than a typical chav.

Henlys is pure Chav, Superdry still has a bit of cachet though, im too old and fat at 42, you need to be young and skinny to carry it off.

Dr Hu

The black nylon jacket with the brightly coloured 'superdry' on the RH shoulder is pure scally wear.... but as pointed out above 90% are prob fake.

Lol agree and the name certainly fits the bill

Unlike Von Dutch, SuperDry was not started by a ****.

Funkii Munkii

You learn something every day !

No.

Burberry is an expensive, excellent quality make with a long history, whereas Superdry is a cheap new firm, made in China, pretending to be Japanese and run from a trading estate in Cheltenham or similar.

If something is popular then scrubbers will want it too, but this doesnt poison it for others.

Tidgy

wahoo, i must not be a chav,,,,,

never heard of superdry, wtf is it?

GC8

I bought some Superdry jeans the other day, along with Firetrap and Gio-goi.

For reasons youll understand Im not a fan of skinny jeans, but all of my other jeans have seen better days (think thighs rubbing together at the top...) so I had little choice but move with the times.

I can carry off (well - get into at any rate) the Firetrap and Gio-goi jeans but the Superdrys seem to have been built for an alien. Theyre all 36 waist and long / 34" leg, but I couldnt fasten the Superdrys at all and the legs seemed to suit someone who was 6'11", not 6'3"!

Superdry returned.

Is G-Star Raw the new Bench ?

Dr Hu

SuperDry does have some *very* bizarre sizing's it has to be said!
