What does Veeky Forums think of the 'footy lad' look?

Literally everyone in the British Isles dresses like a "footy lad" and they look fucking awful.
Tracksuit head to toe,adidas flux,walking advertisements.It's absolute trash.

Sad!

I own 3 Arsenal shirts that I wear regularly but I don't look like a "footie lad" thank fuck.
I dress like a skater I guess... but I wear football shirts because I love football as well as skating and other non-chad type things.

>I dress like a skater

*teleports behind you*

Anyone who uses the word "lad" should be flayed alive and doused in vinegar.
Same goes for "footy lads".

Oh my god I hate ZX Flux! Hideous poor pleb tier. When I was in school though there was this one kid who dressed really nice and had ZX Flux polka dot in his rotation. He was thinspo too. But nearly everyone else is a Hispanic manlet with ratty jeans and zx and a 2000s surf tee

I have a West Germany Italia 90 reissue jersey.
It's not like the original one despite being made by adidas,it has collars. It's a really nice jersey.
Sorry about the shit picture.

I started skating at 14 and stopped at about 25, I'm now 30... I'm not just going to change my entire wardrobe and sense of style that I've had for over a decade because I'm not skateboarding anymore.
Plus, the style suits me according to everyone I know.

That was a nice one! Being English I can't get away with wearing a Germany top though hahaha.

very contrived imo.

>Being English I can't get away with wearing a Germany top though
Being Irish I can clarify it's pretty hard to wear something with a German flag on it regardless of where your from.
People will assume your some nazi or something which is sad and fucking stupid.

Sad!

>Arsenal

Wenger out

I fucking love the football look, but Messi looks like an idiot here.

W2C athletic shorts with a slim fit and pockets.

After 20 years, I finally think this.
I love the guy, but it's time to go.

Contrived AND sad! Many such cases!

Now that we're on the subject; what does Veeky Forums think about sports in general? Or hobbies for that matter

I don't mean "what type of sportswear do you guys think will make me look cool while going to the gym?"

...

Only if there is a decent replacement.
I don't want us to just go for the flavour of the month like United did with Moist.
Get a proper man that will continue AWs legacy, build on it, and stop doing Wengerish mistakes.

You're 30 and you dress like an adolescent? Geez, man. If you still skated I'd actually have more respect for you, not less, you know?

really bad, and this is coming from someone who likes to watch football

what's a footie lad?

a footy lad innit

twinks who give great footjobs, they have a very defined fashion style.
you never forget your first footie lad.

Where do you even live?
I've one of those German surplus parkas and I've never had a second look?
