RedArmy Posted 12 June, 2012 Share Posted 12 June, 2012 Why do people do up top buttons on polo shirts? And why does it annoy me so much?Why are they there if they're not to be done up? Surely it's more stupid to leave undone, unless you have a fat neck of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericb Posted 12 June, 2012 Share Posted 12 June, 2012 Weekend Offender seem a really chavvy brand to me, they lack the style of a lot of the other stuff & are basically aimed at kids playing dress up hoolie. OTS have some nice bits but i don't think they last brilliantly, much rather go for the Norse Project stuff even if it is more pricey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to sell quite a bit off it when it was all made in the UK and the quality was much higher. Only got one item of theirs now. That said, the jackets are still good value.

Always hard to tell on a brand you've never worn. Agree also; I've never liked that Weekend Offender stuff, even just for the name!!

Tokyo-Saint Posted 13 June, 2012 Share Posted 13 June, 2012 tell him the quality is sh*te ! also a bit chav & studenty apparently I was going to. Interesting read as haven't looked on this thread for ages. I think he would just be pleased it is being talked about on a football forum. They have obviously grown very quickly in the last couple of years. I think it is targeted at being a bit chavy or at least having a bit of an edge to it. A lot of the original designs where based on drugs, dove T-shirts etc. The best man at my wedding also has a share in this company and works in fashion. He got Mike Skinner wearing this a few years ago, probably says a lot about who they are targeting. I doubt Dune or the maths teacher fall into their target market.

Exactly - I think those of us commenting are mid-30s upwards. Turkish and I are both mid-30s, VFTT similar and I would assume others who have commented are older than 30-odd as well. The Weekend Offender stuff isn't for me, but I can understand why a 16/17 year old might want to wear it. The fact you can buy it in USC isn't a good thing either - the whole idea behind "good clobber" is the opposite to standard high street really! I mean at the moment, I love Pretty Green stuff and bought a bit from their store this weekend, however, I can see that if the brand grows huge, they open many more stores, it starts getting everywhere, that the appeal would die off - for me anyway!

You are correct. As I said I know two of the owners, one of them really well. They are both mid 30's as I am and they don't wear their own stuff unless it has an advantage to it. You have to dress your age. Also form a business point of view, you have to sell as many as possible. They do have interests in other labels, some more exclusive than others. I don't work in fashion but understand it is a bit like having a portfolio of shares, having interests in different brands at different ends of the market, targeting different people.

Agree with you there. Good stuff and very good quality. Plus you dont see much of it about, same with Ma Strum, great quality and a really good cut and fit for me- i'm a big fan. I've heard good things about 12th Man but yet to buy any of it. Got a clear credit card for my trip to Italy in August so will no doubt be coming back with some quality gear.
