90's clothes

Re: 90's clothes

I remember Manchester City had their strip made by Kappa in the mid 1990s, ironically when they were down to the 3rd level!

.

I recall buying this Shirt in Brixham in 1999 Richard. The colour scheme was very gorish (like an ilulminated green and deep deep Blue) from what I recall. Sadly I probably sold it but if I knew then then how famous Man ity would be in 12 years, I'dhave kept - as for some reason though the colour scheme was horrid I liked the Shirt really!

Kappa was mad popular just before the turn of the millennium.

I agree with you on that point, I remember Kappa clothes suddenly became popular / became available late 1990s (circa 1997/1998). They were definitely around by 1998.

For a few years I had a Kappa t-shirt, & had luckily put it in a charity bag by the time Little Britain started.

In the early 1990s Fila sportswear was popular with some loud designs.

The Mafia boss in Miami Twice wears a particularly garish pink & green one.

Kappa was mad popular just before the turn of the millennium. It always seemed to be the most garish or uncoordinated colours that seemed to be the most worn. A school friend of mine at the time had one that was dark green with coffee coloured stripes, it was horrific.

I never liked Kappa, although I think it was mainly down to the clientele that bought into that brand rather than the clothes themselves. I disliked it because of association.

Speaking of which, I never liked those Adidas tracksuit bottoms with the poppers up the sides of the legs. They quickly become the uniform of the slob around my neck of the woods.

Re: 90's clothes

Don't remember Kappa being big in my 90's circles. One of my teachers had Kappa track suit bottoms in the mid 80's and that was the only time I really encountered the brand but I became aware of the term 'Kappa Slappa' and loved it as Vicki Pollard's clothing of choice.

Re: 90's clothes

i know i had kappa tracksuits think i had a blue one.

i remmber having a joe bloggs t shirt green and black.

Did any other members own Kappa Tracksuits? I did and still have a White one which I regreatably wore on an Outward Bound Weekend in the Lake District but I never ever would part with it now. Ellese was another major brand of 1990s Clothing I recall well - Tracksuit and Jumper wise, but it was not quite as popular as Kappa I recall though.

Re: 90's clothes

I had a Nafnaf coat. It was weird going into school, in the cloakroom everyone had the same coat. They had numbers on them from what I remember, I don't remember what mine had on it, but it was the only way I could differentiate my coat from everyone else's.

Re: 90's clothes

amazing i never have heard of them.

when did they start and when did the cease,go out of business i wonder.

had lots of benetton,fruit of the loom t shirts,jumpers etc.
nenetton stuff was very colourful indeed.

They certainly were,
I had a Naf Naf jumper in the early 90s.
Naf Naf stuff was quite expensive.
It often gets confused with the cheaper rip off NaffCo50.

Re: 90's clothes

OK, here's a look.
Early 1990 I was rocking.
2 Wallaby tops at the same time, with the hoods on either side,
Dungarees,
Purple Kicker boot on the left, green one on the right,
White Sox cap, sometimes backwards,
& about 8-10 Africa and other assorted leather medallions.

I was heavily into De La Soul & the Native Tongues at the time, I had no idea what a pillock I looked like back then !
