i pre-judge people in hollister clothing.

i pre-judge them to be twats.

i hate all that f***ing jack wills egg-chasing public school bollocks.

i find hollister attired girls and boys tend to use the word 'total ledge' to describe idiots.

That's okay. I pre-judge people who don't understand punctuation, or where to use capital letters.

Jack Wills yes, but not so much Hollister.
It seems a split has occurred, some people head to toe in it seem to be those wanting to fit in with the Jack Wills lot, but cant afford to do so. The odd polo shirt or t-shirt is completely different, especially as the logo's a seagull.

This.

Although, why anyone would dress head-to-toe in any one [logo'd] brand, beats me.

Yep, same here.
I've been to a few open days recently at various Uni's, and all the 'upper class' sort tend to be dressed head to toe in Hollister/Superdry/Jack Wills/Abercrombie. Wearing one item is fine IMO, apart from Jack Wills, anyone in that to me is automatically classed a C***.

Being that I'm quite OLD, I'm probably not really up on what is 'cool' or otherwise, and tend to just wear what I actually LIKE.

My outfit for the football tends to involve jeans, a Hollister polo shirt and a Superdry jacket. If that makes me a KNOB, that's fine.

Never been in Jack Wills, but it always looks to me to be a shop for 14 year-old girls??

i like Hollister stuff for two reasons, there's a seagull on it which is a bonus and for the money it is very good quality clothing for a not too expensive price.

What I want to know is why is wearing an item of clothing by a certain brand make you a different person to if you weren't wearing this item of clothing?

for many it's about association or aspiration, like wearing a football shirt.

if you wore a t-shirt with no seagull on it, it would be saying very little about you.

as it happens, the link of the seagull with the team you support is largely personal, wheras many people wear this branded stuff to align themself with the aspirational lifestyle that, in this case, hollister push.

same with people who wear st. pauli t-shirts for example.

or chavs with their expensive nikes or whatever.

Not at all, but in general, most people kitted out in Jack Wills tend to be the private school boys and girls, head to toe in the stuff, willing to pay £30 for a pair of socks, and another £30 for a pair of boxers, just to try and fit a certain look. Superdry stuff is good quality, as is Hollister when you compare it to similar priced stuff you'd find in topman and so on.

Everything is this post 100% nail on head.

Spot on.

I was given a Jack Wills Rugby top two years ago and i liked it. I got some jogger type comfy bottoms last year which i never wear outside the house.

Now sadly it does seem that the clothes are worn by squeaking little Tristrams who simply must be seen to have a £30 pair of socks.

So sadly my JW top has not seen the light of day for some months.

I think you've misunderstood my post.
They do nice clothes, but when somebody spends £300 on being head to toe in Jack Wills, socks and all, just to fit in with a certain group of people, thats what pisses me off. Sadly, the majority of those in said shops now do exactly that, which turns decent clothing into that which is assosciated with complete ****'s.
Sorry for confusion, you upper class **** :p
