The brown variant. I don't know if that's very chavish, as I only know they wear tracksuits and fake burberry.
I wear lacoste shoes and tracktops. Does that make me chavish?

Re: Who are American?
I've seen many more chavish items of clothing than that. It looks quite nice in brown. I personally wouldn't wear it but it doesn't look uber-townie or anything.

Re: Who are American?
I'm sorry but lacoste is just as chavish as addidas or lonsdale.
Unless you're actually playing a sport/training etc the general consensus is that you 'look like a chav'.
Or so my paralytic friend informs me

I've not changed much, and I've always used the same clothes. I might be a tad more bitter and a little less hopefull, but that's just age I think.
For my defense, we don't have "chavs" over here. I might have what is labeled antisocial meanings, but that's just by rightwingers as I've never mugged, stole from my "own"(normal citizens. I was into larsony when young, but I got too much nerves now) or beat up innocents. I'm very sceptical of violence, exept class vs class(if it comes to that) or militant antifascism. My clothes are more of a will to try to be serious and thus get more done politically then any real desire to be fashionabale, but to be honest I like white sneakers instead of boots. I could go around looking like a punk, but then nobody would listen to my message of uprising

Women aren't "innocent" and the sooner you realise that the sooner you'll be able to "deal with them accordingly".

And lacoste trousers, white trainers and an abhorrent brown tracky top help you to achieve that?
Where are you from?

It's dedicated to my friends favorite player, who is from the 70's. I think it's kinda the point
Phalon, please shut the **** up. I dress the way I want to without care for subcultures in other countries. I wear a tracktop when I play fotball or train alone (like running). I like lacoste shoes and their design. And read my ****ing posts before you comment on them.
Judging people by their clothes is a bad thing, okay? I dont own a single pair of lacoste trousers, but I'm guessing that people listens more to somebody who dress more like them (build a relationship, a bridge) then people who dress to show distance/elitism (like punks). Is that so hard to comprehend?

No, it's not hard to comprehend.
There was no malice intended in my post, i didn't intend to phrase it in a way to provoke a reaction (it was poorly phrased i'll admit).
Obviously the 'abhorrent' bit is a personal oppinion, but the point of my question was asking how exactly dressing that way helps you.
You sort of answered it in your retort, so ta.
You say it's bad to judge people by their clothing but then go on to say that it's important to dress alike to interact with others (build a relationship etc). We live in a society where we are inevitably pre-judged as a person (in order to be accepted by a given group) based almost entirely (initially at least) on our appearance.
This is just the way of things.
I can't say that all 'chavs' are a bunch of utter wankers who bring nothing to society but anti-social behaviour, but the vast majority, in my experience, are.
Please don't get so upset, it's only the internet dear.
EDIT

I'm sure there's a midpoint between "looking like a punk" and "wearing clothing with the logos of multi billion dollar corporations on them".
Maybe.

I'm gonna guess that he's from Staines is just trying to save his local Community Center, whilst trying to "keep it real".
