Standard of dress at SMS

[Turkish]

Whilst i am in a fan bashing mood, i have to say our fans must be up there with the scruffiest bunch in the country. I am not a fan off football shirts but i do accept that fans will wear them and to be honest our home and away shirt is quite smart, as football shirts go, so for once, shirters are excluded from this thread. However there are an incedibly high amount of studenty types with gay hair cuts, beany hats even in hot days and look more like they are going to a Bloc Party gig than a football match. Add that to the amount of sh*t brands like Bench, Berghaus, McKenzie and the fake Stone Island tops that seem to come out in the winter and it really does look like a bad delivery day at TK Maxx. However this weekend SMS fashion hit an all time low. I was rushing to my seat just before kick off when i almost bumped into the scruffiest looking geezer i have ever seen, he looked like an Afghan with a beany hat and all over trampy appearance, the guy looked ideal for a role as an extra in Shameless. Personally i always try to take a bit of pride in my appearance, but i do wonder what some people see, firstly when they go shopping and secondly when they look in the mirror when they go out the door, if indeed they have any.

Just out of interest Turkish,tell us how you go dressed to a footy match?Personally i could do with some fashion tips.

[scott_saints]

What if it's real Stone Island? Is it then acceptable?

[dune]

Whether it's fake or real Stone Island - the wearer still looks a pr1ck.

A giant ***** at that.

some SI can look quite smart, but i have to say i am coming round to the opinion that in a lot of cases it looks chavy and the decent stuff is made to look cheaper but the amount of mugs wearing cheaper/fake stuff.

See those guys off of X-Factor, Diva Fever?

 

Like that!!

[RedArmy]

True, but you're never too far from a pair of Adidas Originals at a Saints game and that's not a bad thing.

yesterday i wore a pair of addidas forest hills, some dark blue Paul Smith jeans, a white t-shirt and a navy Ralph Lauren zip top with white piping on the collar, very smart, yet at the same time casual.

[scott_saints]

I am slightly concerned about the current generation of teens who seem to think it's acceptable to have gay wavy/long hair etc. Man up.

[benjii]

Turkish, good observation.

 

I think some guidance is in order. Dear reader, please aspire for style like this:

 

 

and less of this filth:

Size have got some cracking black Spezials in last time i looked, going to stock up i think.

[scott_saints]

With regards to original Adidas trainers, and don't get me wrong because I wear them aswell. But I find the lovefest surrounding them, and the "Look at mine, they are rarer than yours" attitude quite cringeworthy!

[John Boy Saint]

I saw a couple of older gentlemen yesterday in the shop they were wearing our new shirt, but these shirts looked like they had both been climbing trees, scrimping, and rolling down hills on their way to the ground.

[croydonsaint]

please tell me this is a joke.............it is a joke isnt it and im not getting it?

[Lighthouse]

I usually wear either

 

 

Or

Sounds like ive a lot to learn.

Yesterday i wore my retro Saints shirt with jeans from C and A with a nice turn up at the end,though i did give in to youth fashion by wearing a pair of Reeboks.

nothing to do with how much people earn, it's about having pride in yourself.

[Turkish]

prefer the darker blue, the black ones aren't even on the size website, smart though. Gazelles are classic too.

[alehouseboys]

Is that an old snapshot of some of the 'Wagon' boys? Looks like a young Richie-what's-is-name third from right!

 

Anyways, this was considered acceptable attire once upon a time...

So that was you. You sort of do this wriggle with your bottom when your walking, is it called mincing? You did look smart though. I saw you eying up these scruffy fans with a look of such disdain on your face.

glad you noticed me. But dont get any funny ideas, Dune has got first refusal should i ditch the b*tch and switch.

[Saintandy666]

Bench and McKenzie are very chavvy brands.

[croydonsaint]

In my day it was ladybird or st. michaels

[dubai_phil]

Be careful with the Paul Smith Jeans. All over the place these days in Bangkok for 8 quid a pair.

 

Hope your's weren't bought "at a good price"

[Deppo]

I remember when football was about football and beer, not a bloomin' dating agency for the homosexual community. If you're more interested in what other men are wearing than you are in the football, then I suggest you save your money and take a free walk around the common, at night.

[Micky]

Why bother - you can get two pairs of Tescos own brand for eight quid - or they not acceptable at SMS...!!!

[dune]

I've just visited the trinny and sussana OS to get some tips.

got them from the Paul Smith shop so am sure they are safe, thanks though.

[latter day saint]

didn't think Berghaus was a chavvy label ?

do laugh at the yoof in their Adidas,all pristine & in day-glo colours. i wear a pair of Adidas originals i've had for years, which are scuffed & covered in beer stains. never seen another pair of them so may be worth a bit but wouldn't have them any other way.

it's not partularly chavvy, just a bit naff.

[Ponty]

When did blokes start caring about labels? If it looks good and feels good, who the hell cares who made it? Man up, ffs.

[Ponty]

And by "Looks good" I mean if you like it yourself. Who cares what anyone else thinks?

[scott_saints]

Who cares what anyone else thinks?

 

Most people.

[Deppo]

It's all about the confidence.

 

...

[Hatch]

People who sit in the front 5 or 6 rows should wear ties at least.

[Ponty]

Most people.

They need to grow some self-esteem then.

[sfc4prem]

It's all about the confidence.

 

Keep the good advice going. I've wipped out the notepad.

[Hatch]

We need more Rule 1s from the so called experts on here.

 

Show me where I am going wrong.

[Channon's Windmill]

At the Bompey game last week, I saw a lady wearing a full length, backless, black dress with high heels!! That was in Kingsland North while I was queing for a beer about 10mins before kickoff. I have never seen anything like it at any football match let alone Saints.
