The 80's was all about these bad boys:

loved my lyle and scott and pringle sweaters.I remember getting chased at orient and couldn't run cause my tachini track pants were to long and heavy.Now have a pair of stan smiths and a stoney jacket and sweater and a few other bits and pieces that I picked up last year.what was with all those bright ski jackets in the eighties?How I loved my pepe jeans and my kicker boots

Seeing as I was a poor schoolkid, I had to make do with Slazenger golf jumpers rather than Lyle & Scott, frustrates me that Slazengers aren't readily available these days (even in golf shops!)

I shan't :hijack: your thread about shoes (you big girls), but yes, I am NERD AND PROUD!

The thing I prefer about the eighties casual scene was it evolved fast, the gear was good but not prohibitively expensive (unlike SI & CP company gear) and the clothes didn't look like a uniform, which is what the whole SI thing with the Aquascutum caps evolved into
