You sound like you're describing pretty common guys in their 20s in much of the UK. I'm more surprised that this look is new to you.
I find the funnel type trackie bottoms paired with the windbreaker, vape chain and often some kinda man bag quite interesting. It’s like a uniform for the idiot. Nearly always grey and black however in summer it is often paired with an almost fluorescent sports tshirt worn around the waist.
I’m not sure why this is seen as something to aspire too other than the fitting in. I am Intrigued
Did someone once think it looked good and a cult was born? Is there an annual show that inspires? or is it just at the discretion of JD sports marketing department. How does such common and basic attire command so much money? Does anyone ever actually do sport whilst wearing them.
