Meanwhile in London, all this existed way before with most of the big shops stocking expensive tennis gear and also shops like Stuart’s in Shepherds Bush. Of course you had flagship stores in London like Aquascutum and Burberry, but Selfridges and Harrods stocked it all in the 1970’s and onwards. No need for Londoners to go to Europe on supposed ‘shopping’ sprees..
There’s a book on this I brought it over 20 years ago & it’s in my loft somewhere the cover has a picture of a bloke wearing a CP company jacket with the goggles on the hood & a aquascutum scarf on 👌🏿
Stone Island and other Osti designs like CP, Boneville etc were worn long before 92. Stone Island Marina was actually being advertised in Arena and The Face in the 80s. Many older heads stopped wearing SI as it was considered 'done' by 2000 opting for other Osti labels like Left Hand. It's forgotten who quick casual fashion changed especially in the 80s and not like now where you but a Mille Miglle and your in.
CP, SI did get worn in the 80s but the origins of the casuals was Adidas trainers, Peter Storm cagoules, Pringle jumpers, Lois jumbos, Slazenger jumpers before moving on to Tacchini, Ellesse and the golf and tennis looks. When that died out early 85 the SI, CP, Duck and Cover, etc started to take over. And punks at football? No
Bought my first ever Stone Island top in March 1994 with my first ever wage. I was on £3.20 an hour and got £140 tax free in my first wage packet. Spent £140 on a zip up black SI jacket. I still buy lots of SI now, but never wear the badge. Too many clueless people wearing it now sadly.
You say that the fashion was a summer thing but you don’t say anything about the jumpers and ski jackets that were a huge part of the scene at the beginning. Luhta, Lacoste, Best Company, Berghaus, suede and leather patchwork jackets
@@AlexNoonan987You also said it was a summer fashion. Also, look up the Italian fashion movement, Paninaro, which was an influence on the movement here
If I remember correctly the early editions of The Face magazine used to have a letters page for people to write in and there used to be a series of letters written in by football fans boasting what theyre fans would be wearing ie you may get a Liverpool saying we’re now wearing Lyle and Scott or Pringle with Gazzelles on the terraces and then following week a Tottenham fan would be saying we’re now wearing Giorgio Armani with Diadora Trainers….. I’m sure someone will correct me to say the exact clothes each fan was wearing but you get the idea.
I remember my grandad wearing Stone Island back in the early 00's. They sold it in limited numbers at his local independently owned elderly gents shop that used to have a lot of sailing-type jumpers, fleeces etc, not sure if they ordered it by mistake or something but they didn't continue selling it. Wish he'd of kept hold of them 🤣
From certain groups of people, if you’re wearing ‘x,y and z’ clothing items, you might get more respect. Or you might just get your head kicked in. Either way it’s off to the pub for pints afterwards.

Phil Thornton's book with contributions by lads who were there and know the craic.
Decent book. Probably the only one.
It was Liverpool in England and Aberdeen in Scotland that were the originals
You're absolutely right mate. Liverpool that's all started. Adidas forest Hills trainers, diadora, pringles etc

Talked about cagoules and parkas

Some people just have no clue do they 😂

Your bang on 👌👍
Superb vid. Lots of factors that I didn’t think about.
Thanks for the support mate!
Get you story right .revisinist
Boro had the first football firm in the north east the joeys. The reat north took 10 years befor there had dressers
Is that the only reason you picked to show the Fiorentina shirt??
Mistakes were made…
Decent video
But no video tag, no channel tag, no SEO, so how will it grow
Dear Alex Noonan,I really liked your video. Everyone will benefit

Shame mate they’d be worth a fortune now 😂
sergio tacchini best clothes ever
Interesting to hear a young man's interpretation to how the culture developed. You've got quite a lot wrong here.
Happy to hear otherwise. As said in the video most happened before I was born so happy to be corrected
@@AlexNoonan987don’t know we’re you got your info from but it’s wrong on nearly everything about the casual scene..
cool!
Deffo should’ve mentioned Paul Heaton of The Beautiful South, who always would wear a Stone Island jacket whilst on stage.
Lots of fans in the closed season would hit europe and get the clothes for the start of the next season these people were called grafters.
Grifters

Skinhead culture wasn’t brought here from Europe brother.
Agreed, don’t believe (maybe wrong) I said that in the video. It was more the clothes were brought from the travelling fans

This is so wrong, on every level, is difficult to know where to begin.
All started at Liverpool in the late 70s. Props to the scousers
No. It didn't.
That's a myth
Yes it did
Load of crap 😂
Talking about the golden era of casuals sitting there in a Nike sweat shirt.. obiously hasn't been touched by the hand of style.
Sorry I wasn’t wearing my CP company quarter zip and setting off pyros in my attic 😂
Disappointing effort- casual culture should include Lois, Kickers or Farah and maybe drop some of the Beckham content
Unfortunately casual culture isn’t the whole of football fashion. A huge part but there’s more too it
Help!
Rise of it .Its being going on for years .Brummies 😂😂😂😂😂
