Turkish Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 We haven't had a clothes thread for a while, not since our promotion to the premier league so with Europe on the horizon I think its time the most stylist among us imparted some advice so the rest of you don't embarrass us with your lack of style and poor grooming. Remember everyone, you club and city are now representing ourselves across Europe, there is a very real chance we could be rubbing shoulders with some very well dressed fans, so its time to raise our game. Remember even if we have to go to small Eastern Europe City or country you don't have to dress like you're from there! We obviously don't want fancy dress, no clown suits, road cone hats etc and We don't want to see any shirts over hoodies and in the early stages in hotter climates no three quarter length shorts or nasty Lonsdale style velco strapped trainers. My wardrobe is Pretty much sorted for the qualifiers, I'm presuming wherever we go its going or be warm so got myself a couple of moncler polo shirts, which I'll team with some chino shorts and a pair of superga trainers. So what will you be wearing? If any of you need any advice do not hesitate to ask.
Goatboy Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 Hi Turks. I'm in the market for a smart hat to keep the sun off. Obviously baseball caps are a no no and the old knotted hankie is no good. What would you recommend? I'm leaning towards a smart panama but don't want to look like Stephen Fry. ps thanks for starting this thread, you're a life-saver!

Goatboy Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 Moncler ? Really ? Yuck. What's he like eh? Over priced tat for label whores. I'm going for something more subtle, maybe a Reiss terry towelling polo for the evenings. If it's warm I'll be rocking a boring old tee and my usual short/flip-flop combo:
doddisalegend Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 I assume the local opposition will turn up in traditional dress like these examples As such I think we should go as traditional English men on holiday
Goatboy Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 MMMM. Maybe you're right. I'll go with the chinos then. Will these go with the Panama?
doddisalegend Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 MMMM. Maybe you're right. I'll go with the chinos then. Will these go with the Panama? If that doesn't cause the opposition fans to respect you and Saints nothing will....
Goatboy Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 If that doesn't cause the opposition fans to respect you and Saints nothing will.... Just doing my bit Dodds:toppa:

Turkish Posted 28 June, 2015 Author Posted 28 June, 2015 Another thread derailed by the trolls. Our reputation is at stake here, we don't want to become a laughing stock with fans dragging our club same through the gutter with their trimly appearance or even worse, attempts at wacky behaviour. Its no wonder this place is going down the pan.

buctootim Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 Its what Westwood would be like if he had money and soap
ericb Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 i was thinking of getting a load of black Chapel Ultras hoodies printed in a real angry looking germanic font. Couple that with some cargo shorts and black boots and we'll be the scourge of Europe

Goatboy Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 As long as we don't neglect the accessories I think it could work.
VectisSaint Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 yeah lets go Chav The new squad photos are looking good. The Eterna watch is particularly striking on Shane's left arm there.
Delboy Dave Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 Because I'm super cool, I had to google moncler as I have never even heard of them. £115 for a plain white polo shirt?! Think I will stay un cool!
dubai_phil Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 Sorry, it has to be Dry Fit Greg Norman golf shirts all the way.......... (Couldn't resist that sorry! Tickets permitting, we have a decent sized crew who will be coming from this neck of the woods, so we're going for the own badged Polo shirts for the journey. After that it depends. We have an agent who has just returned to the homeland who is tasked with acquiring "Mega Store" gear, training tops or even away shirts. But again the issue is getting them to us. Worst case we will go with last seasons' home shirts)
suewhistle Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 DP - whatever happened to our Bangkok sourced PNJT t-shirts? I have to say I was intrigued by the thread and even opened the OP's post! :-) I always ignore the ones he posts immediately after me in other threads, but obviously I can't do that in this one. Personally I shall wear some Union flag dungarees (my first pair of dungarees since I was 6) with a rainbow scarf. Not sure about the top - I may wear the latest Saints shirt, although not sure what size I take. Footwear will obviously be moulded studs for the firm early season conditions, although if there's a big enough whip-round I'll bring the whip and high heeled-boots. PS: guys, don't want to be negative, but given the number of typos in the post do you think Turkish had a few too many G&Ts before dinner?

Good point Sue but unfortunately Marriage has kinda limited my trips in that direction..........
Polaroid Saint Posted 28 June, 2015 Posted 28 June, 2015 A thread about threads. Nice. Can I pair a Saints-red Weekend Offender polo I bought on sale with some natty Namanica chinos and my trusty Chatham Orwells? I will probably end up looking some mad uncle that has raided Turkish's wardrobe, but what price fashion? Mind you, I might just rock my normal travel-wear of a USAF black flight suit (lots of pockets for money/ticket/passport/boiled sweets and no belt to remove at the airport).

Deano6 Posted 29 June, 2015 Posted 29 June, 2015 Turkish - I'm gonna be flying over for one of the qualifiers in mid-August. I'll be coming from the US which means I'll be fat, loud and obnoxious. Please can you recommend a suitable attire for someone in my possish?
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 29 June, 2015 Posted 29 June, 2015 To be honest it's not the dress code that's embarrassing, it's the fact that a lot of fans look like trolls. I think there should be a ban on fat/short/bald fans travelling abroad. Oh, and anyone that wears chavvy tat like Stone Island.

I can recommend these people: https://www.panamas.co.uk They have a shop in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, with a very helpful pretty young lady

In addition to providing us with spiritual guidance, the Dalai Lama has this very weekend shown us the way when it comes to fashionable headgear. A simple yet colourful tee-shirt appears to be the trend for 2015. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama/
Lighthouse Posted 29 June, 2015 Posted 29 June, 2015 I wore this for the Swiss tour a couple of summers ago. Anybody know where I can get one with a Dutch flag?
maysie Posted 29 June, 2015 Posted 29 June, 2015 Here is mine sorted. Is that acceptable Turkish? Prob just go for a Saints short that is too tight for the top. If it is cold which it shouldn't be in July I will just wear it over my Lonsdale hoody
