The ladies!
Sorry bro but if you couldn't pick up in a busy supermarket, you've lost it. Sell that jacket and move on, you're doing it a disservice now.
this really, if you (OP) didn't walk out of the supermarket with a bevvy of beauties in tow leaving a snail trail behind them well then, to be blunt, you've lost it man. stick to the trackies and dirty t-shirts. you're no longer the man you thought you were
The state of GD lately, I was expecting some kind of joke or pun :mad:

As for jeans/trousers, I've been in shorts since WFH started in late March. I'd be surprised if any of my trousers or jeans still fit.
same. and i have sworn to wear them all through winter!

Gucci (/ˈɡuːtʃi/, GOO-chee; Italian pronunciation: [ˈɡuttʃi]) is a luxury brand of fashion house based in Florence, Italy.[1][2][3] Its product lines include handbags, ready-to-wear, shoes and accessories, makeup, fragrances, and home decoration.

Gucci was founded in 1921 by Guccio Gucci in Florence, Tuscany. Under the direction of Aldo Gucci (son of Guccio), Gucci became a worldwide-known brand, an icon of the Italian Dolce Vita. Following family feuds during the 1980s, the Gucci family was entirely ousted from the capital of the company by 1993. After this crisis, the brand was revived with a provocative 'Porno Chic' props. In 1999, Gucci was acquired by the French conglomerate Pinault Printemps Redoute. During the 2010s, Gucci became an iconic 'Geek-Chic' brand.

In 2019, Gucci operated 487 stores for 17,157 employees, and generated €9.628 billion in sales (€8.2 billion in 2018).[4] Marco Bizzarri is CEO of Gucci since December 2014, and Alessandro Michele creative director since January 2015. Gucci is a subsidiary of the French luxury group Kering.

Don't mind the jeans look and I do look damn good in them (bodybording with fins and coastal walking helps) wouldn't wear a dead animal carcass on my top half though.
Not in to the Eastern European look though so not wearing a tracksuit any time soon, well never actually

It's the absolute definition of a chav, anyone who tells you it isn't, is well... a chav.


I can’t help but agree with that, but of course, it’s just a personal opinion, this stuff is all subjective.
To me, track suits and shell suits are the epitome of things infra dig.
The farthest that I’m prepared to go, particularly in the light of the enforced laying about at home with this Covid thing, is either jeans or khakis, with the rare appearance of a pair of cargo trousers if all my jeans and khakis are in the wash.
I can only think of one thing that is lower on the chav scale than track suits, and that’s a Cockney Pearly King outfit.
They’re allegedly worn for charity raising, but I’m inclined to think that those wearing that stuff are doing so as a penance, or as the result of losing a bet.

So in a fit of buyer's remorse over your unused leather jackets, you decide to hit up ASDA while cosplaying as Jeremy Clarkson, but still decide that you prefer being a chav....?

In the Land of Grey and Pink
Certainly the children have seen them
In quiet places where the moss grows green
Coloured shells jangle together
The wind is cold, the year is old, the trees whisper together
And bend in the wind, they lean

Next week a monkey is coming to stay

If I was a witches' hat
Sitting on her head like a paraffin stove
I'd fly away and be a bat
Across the air I would rove

Stepping like a tightrope walker
Putting one foot after another
Wearing black cherries for rings
