Head bags used to be as much football hooligan uniform as Stone Island is now - I remember watching the kids who were deported from Germany in Euro88 using them to hide their faces from the cameras to a man.

Speaking of which, anyone remember lumy socks? If you were deed cool like me you used to mix and match your orange and yellow ones. I'd like to point out this was when I was about 8 years old :nufc:

I remember them, never wore them though, imo they were for tramps who shopped down the quay on a Sunday morning. There was a kid in my year who used to swap them around like you mentioned, he was a dimented tramp though with some filfthy habits.

 

You didn't go to Welbeck School did you Alex? Kirky is that you? :D

I think I must be a dedicated follower of retro.

 

I've recently started wearing a watch I got in the '80s, one of those with Analogue and digital displays. I've also got my Italia'90 England shirt out and wear Adidas Gazelles or chocolate brown nubuck New Balance trainers.
