In the early 80's we were wearing adidas trainers with straight leg cords or jeans, sweat shirts or lambswool jumpers. By the mid 80's the look had moved to Nike trainers baggy jeans or cords with paisley shirts. Throughout this time sportswear played a big part. Brands that have already been mentioned plus Marco Polo and Lacoste plus loads of others. The fashions were changing all the time and we had some great shops to choose from in Manchester.

The look was constantly evolving throughout the 80s. From the terrace sportswear classics like Tachinni tracksuits and Trainers at the beginning of the decade, through to the middle of the decade when there would be hundreds of lads near the away fans in the Platt Lane Stand, wearing perms, sloppy roundnexk j umpers with City pin badge and chords. As the decade progressed, things like Manchester Leathers, Bennetton tops and dungarees came and went. By the end of the decade the clothes went baggier and the hair longer and were more influenced by the local rave and music scene.
