Hmm.
I would also hmmm, as well. Same with Churches shoes. Not chavvy in the sense that Daniella Westbrook or Brian (ex-E17) would wear, but definitely heading towards new money / tacky territory.

Churches that your father wore are not the Churches being sold now in terms of quality. Some of the new ranges designed to attract new money Euro & Far East trash are vomit inducing.

Two entries:
1. Carmina (shoes)
2. Waitrose (food retail)

Although the latter does feature customers who utter "Oh my god! It's just like East Berlin!" upon finding out that an item is out of stock (overheard in Waitrose on FB - second-hand source as I do not use FB).

Yes I know the sidesteps are a problem (bit chav) but I don't think the car is chav. Surely the builder would have a black one with non standard oversize wheels with bald rubber band profile ling longs and limo tint?

Absolutely isn't - best colour, not "facelifted", no 22"s with Chinese tyres, no ghetto glass, bonnet badges don't spell something stupid, no stupid scaffold pipe hanging off the sides, no chrome tat, etc.

There are some pretentious fookwits on Ph, people can be Chav, the fact they choose to wear/drive/drink a specific brand does not make that brand bad. Personally, I buy a brand if its quality and styled to my liking. Just because some idiot paints it pink or hands it to Khan to stick 25inch gold wheels on it does not lesson the fact that its a quality product that I like.

well yes we know that; a branded good is not a sentient being. However if certain brands are very popular amongst chav people, then those brands become associated with chavs, and therefore they are chav - innit. You know, like the George Cross.

Annoyingly some chav things are very decent quality goods. Chavs don't give a st about that though, only caring about the conspicuous nature of the branding, and how it means they're overtly part of an ownership club with their chav friends and family. I think basically it comes down to expensive things that are well known. Anything less well known is less affected.
