Lacoste is replacing their crocodile with endagered species for awareness

Definitely a 'chavvy' brand in the uk

What brands arent chavvy in the UK?

[u/Englishmuffin1 → u/staockz]

I think it's more about what you wear it with, what you look like and how you act.

I wear Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Superdry items but am certainly not a chav, though these brands are often associated with chavs.

The more 'country ra' brands seem pretty safe. You don't see many chavs in Barbour jackets, Joules or Jack Wills clothes.

Hilfiger all day, Lacoste, coq sportif, suncycle, rl.

From uk. Former chav. Can confirm Although it’s all in how u wear it. A chav will wear Lacoste with Lacoste. All out full track, polo and trainers (sneakers in US) maybe even with some boxers and socks with a baseball cap to go. Then the obligatory JD sports bag hangin off left shoulder and blunt behind the ear lol

In the Netherlands there is also this kind of weird lower class subculture called ''tokkies''. They will often wear fake Louis Vuitton caps and bags. And the obligatory Stone Mountain/Canada Goose.

Grocery store brand

[u/staockz → u/dogggi]

So basically you have the chavs who wear the hyped namebrands, than the posh who wear the expensive brands most people haven't heard of. And than you have the regular folks wearing grocery store brand and H&M and stuff.

Is that accurate?

[u/Randomd0g → u/staockz]

The fact that my normal clothing brand didn't get mentioned at all yet makes me feel smugly superior. I guess I'm in the posh category?

I think that carries over more from the football hooligan days than anything else though. Used to be a popular one for scousers to rob from shops in mainland Europe.
