jonthefox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 The reason i ask is iv'e just pulled my old Topps tiles shirt out of the wardrobe, and was thinking of wearing it today.
FreddieFox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 When it's old enough to look like your not wearing it because you can't afford the new one!
THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 Retro typically is 15-20 years old. Wearing a topps shirt, people may think you're poor or a weirdo to be honest
Vlad the Fox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 When you see it for sale in the club shop and then realise you've still got the original hanging up in the wardrobe. It's saving me a small fortune.
Mack Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 When someone on ebay is trying to get £10 more for it that it's actually worth?
indierich06 Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 I reckon once a shirt is from a previous decade, it becomes retro.
jonthefox Posted 18 May 2014 Author Posted 18 May 2014 Retro typically is 15-20 years old. Wearing a topps shirt, people may think you're poor or a weirdo to be honest Or both?.
The Horse's Mouth Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 only oldish one I wear, is the black and blue loros shirt
Agent Fox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 I wear the 125 year anniversary shirt to every game, one day it will be retro!!
Southcoastfox08 Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 Retro typically is 15-20 years old. Wearing a topps shirt, people may think you're poor or a weirdo to be honest My wife wears this one to bed...
Pen 3 Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 When you put it on it looks more like the lagging around the hot-water tank and you get cold sweats remembering that mullet you had when it fitted....that's retro
lc4lcfc Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 I still have one from the days we were sponsored by walkers. I'd say over a decade old is retro
maynefox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 I still wore mine with pride in League 1 with 'Chambers 2' on the back!
THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 My wife wears this one to bed... Can I ask you something, does it turn you on?
Guest Sharpe's Fox Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 Here's a rule of thumb, vintage is old shit while retro is new shit made to look like old shit.
DennisNedry Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 For the here and now, I'd say anything that is LG/Walkers Crisps or before that is retro. Anything since then isn't, and a few are notably shit.
Guest Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 The reason i ask is iv'e just pulled my old Topps tiles shirt out of the wardrobe, and was thinking of wearing it today. As soon as you want to sell it.
Footballwipe Posted 18 May 2014 Posted 18 May 2014 When the club can reproduce it and it actually sells, it's retro.
