Just walked past someone on my morning stroll to work wearing tracksuit bottoms and rockports. I thought this fashion faux pas had been left in the nineties. I have to be honest I felt a little bit sick, there is no need for this in 2015.

What other fashion no-no's really get your goat??

I don't understand why anyone would wear tracksuit bottoms at all unless partaking in sport.

For me at the moment it has to be grown men in skinny jeans. If that's not bad enough anyway they tend to couple them with no socks and deck shoes.


Personally I think they look fecking ridiculous.

The one thing that I think looks stupid, but it is an age thing, blokes with jeans or trousers dropping down and showing their underpants.

Jeans and suit jacket for me too. Hate that look.
I don't mind most looks, it's up to folks what they wear but one thing that makes me grimace is the people that have gone out and bought an entire look in one go. Last week they were wearing skinny jeans now they are into Gent fashion next month they'll go and buy the lumber sexual look.
It's like they were standing inbwtween Topman and To Be Worn Again when a bomb went off in both.

There is no-one that can acceptably wear skinny jeans. Horrendous things.

Hahahahahahahahhahaha

Guy at work is wearing EXACTLY that today. Skinny jeans with turn ups that are half way up his ankle, deck shoes and no socks. I've just passed him and thought what a **** are all the mirrors in your gaff broken or something?!?

Sat back down to my desk and the first thing I've done is read this thread.

Funny old game...innit Saint.

Nothing wrong with deck shoes what so ever. But they should only ever be paired with shorts IMO and should never be worn with socks.

Pound to a penny the man in the shoes and trackie bottoms was on his way to either the DSS office or the pub. Probably both.
