I didn’t notice it until my brother introduced me to a bunch of his mates and they literally look the same. My brother’s in his mid to late 20’s and it’s like this weird fashion choice mixed with weird slang, “mush” instead of “mate”, “minging”, “safe”, day to day attire of him and his friends group is always some sports branded baseball cap, usually Nike and grey or black, gold chain necklaces, matching tracksuit (again usually Nike, black or grey) and expensive Nike Air Max trainers that cost like 120 quid. They all listen to the same music and I saw my brother watching videos which had similar groups of people doing stuff. Is this some new trend I didn’t notice until now? Can’t keep up nowadays

    You sound like you’re describing pretty common guys in their 20s in much of the UK. I’m more surprised that this look is new to you.

      I find the funnel type trackie bottoms paired with the windbreaker, vape chain and often some kinda man bag quite interesting. It’s like a uniform for the idiot. Nearly always grey and black however in summer it is often paired with an almost fluorescent sports tshirt worn around the waist.

      I’m not sure why this is seen as something to aspire too other than the fitting in. I am Intrigued

      Did someone once think it looked good and a cult was born? Is there an annual show that inspires? or is it just at the discretion of JD sports marketing department. How does such common and basic attire command so much money? Does anyone ever actually do sport whilst wearing them.
