Fred Perry are going to stop making..... on 15:50 - Sep 28 with 3133 views | monytowbray | Understandable. How would you feel if a load of terrorist Neo Nazis decided to start wearing ITFC shirts as a uniform to identify each other? Or if you paid £50+ on a shirt without that knowledge and someone thought you were a terrorist Neo Nazi? Don’t hate the middle man, hate the, ya know, ACTUAL NEO NAZIS. | |

....luckily I'm too fat to wear it at the moment. Ironically the place I see them the most is at Specials concerts, this new appropriation goes against everything the Ska movement promotes. Sad days. | |

Proud boys rather conjures up other images, and connotations I wonder if they refer to their protests as pride marches ? | | | |

What do you mean 'repressed homosexuals'? Maybe some of them are homosexuals. Accusatory tones like this, and posts questioning if their marches are called Pride etc only serve to be implicit in continuing to present homosexuality with a negative connotation, like it's something to be ashamed of. Either way, these lot should be locked up. | | | |

....depending on the style. The style that you'd consider the classic Fred Perry is usually £75 - £80. So $95 is about right. (Of course you can get them cheaper in some places at certain times) | |

Yeah sounds about right. Last one I had I recall it was a bit tight and considering I’m even more of fat yankee bastard probably won’t be getting one anytime soon. Their track jackets are nice though. | |
