I'm guessing this is you popping out for a pint of milk?

loool, as a fashion conscious (gheeeey hehe) 22 year old who follows most of the trends, for me and the majority of people my age, those brands I mentioned scream chav! Although there are some brands I wear myself and might come across as chav to the older generation,. e.g Fred Perry, which I quite like and own a number of stuff from them. Generally I go for plain or discret branded clothes that have a good fit and good material!

Have you ever driven a Range Rover sport, they are a great car if you are a parent and still like to drive in something that has a very pleasant interior with plenty of room and not a people carrier.

Certainly a lot nicer than an X3.
Yes.

Agree, great car .

Am a parent who likes a pleasant interior.

Not a fan of people carriers.

Nicer than an X3, agreed (albeit that was a bit of a personal attack and unnecessary).

But hey, RR Sports are still chav.

Looks like we're both right. smile

I'm not sure. I have a 1992 Cavalier 1.8 in blue with blue interior, and I think your average Chav would rather get the bus than be seen dead near it.
They couldnt afford the insurance
Since when did chavs start worrying about trivial matters such as having motor insurance?

Absolutely, add Moncler to that too.

Seen at football grounds around the country every weekend, worn by fat, bald men who think they're a bit 'tasty' after a few beers. Same crowd as Stone Island to be fair!

Forgot to add a few!

Rebook Classics, Lyle and Scott, Jack Wills, Tapped out, Henleys, Hackett, Nickelson, Lonsdale, Adidas Originals (even though I like most of their stuff frown ), and Stone Island!

I think I've pretty much covered it all now lol
Oh dear, that's a couple more from my "go to" brands on the list! laugh

Love Lyle and Scott polos, the couple I've got are by far and away the best fitting and best quality ones I own. Used to love Henleys but it died out years ago, Adidas Originals are awesome, and I actually like the look of Stone Island stuff but would never dream of buying any due to the ridiculous cost!

Berghaus was definitely a chav brand when I was at uni.

Not sure as to it's status now.

Berghaus offer some decent kit at reasonable prices however the hoodlums have wised up to this and realised that Berghaus kit is an inexpensive way of keeping warm whilst loitering around.

Hugo Boss ‘green’

Sadly very chav indeed - red, orange and black I would say are not though as they’re normally quite a bit more and less ‘showy’ (esp the black range)
