Alfie Allen reminds me of Mick Jagger in an good way.
Alfie Allen is the dogs,coolest & nicest bloke in the media culture,should be held as as example to anyone in any culture 😎😎
A superb footage. I'm definitely waiting to see more of these.
Could anyone please tell me what's the music in the background? - it really enhances the overall video production.
Regards from Poland.

I cklicked on this add just because of theon xD
The Vigo Son
I try to be as much of a lad as I can
whats the brand of the jacket that allen's wearing? i swear to god i ve been looking for that forever
Salient Savage stone island, I have a few coats and jumpers by them, amazing quality and reasonably priced, their winter accessories are very good too
Absolutely nothing on their website is reasonably priced. I couldn't find a single thing that was less than $400.
Ingmar Fris try looking for a online store called Tessuti, they sell SI's lower priced jumpers, jeans and tops
Ingmar Fris try eBay mate
samsta871 be aware with eBay buys, there are a lot of fakes and in some cases, fakes that are exceptionally close to the real thing
'Picking up' is a relative term.
Robbing blind is another...
Reek! :)
God we're cool 🇬🇧
More alphie!!
oh young theon

What is he wearing, the tracksuit?
anyone know where Elgar's hat is from?

good work good guy - researched and backed it up rather than pretentious rubbish on the catwalk
why is your pool just two colors?
Is that the actor from john wick?
Yep
They are all wearing supreme
Lol i know Alfie in real life
What's the sweatshirt Elgar is wearing?
Vegan pie and mash!?!?! Get rekt...wtf? What next, gummi bear jelly'd eels?
YNWA!!!
Huhu, I can't really understand what they say...
the corporation killed it off. hen peckers.
Theon Greyjoy
And the comments. People > so dumbed down!
The death of fashion....this man is the style editor for GQ wearing a flat cap and check shirt talking football in a London caff?!?! Valentino look away
track ware was a thing in the 80s instead of bring it back, create something new!
That lad must be like a far cousin of
Mick Jagger.
Astrid Andersen...your clothes definitely wont be the new Casual style XD
this is so british i love it. why can’t the american boys dress like this it’s so dumb. i’m from america unfortunately. hi.
Probably because it originated from football hooliganism. He said it was Liverpool fans that started it but he didn't mention how. Liverpool were the biggest team in the world in the 70s and 80s but Liverpool is really run down city (like Detroit) so Liverpool played all over Europe so Liverpool football hooligans would loot shops for designer clothes and rolexes and stuff and wear them back England and it just caught on with the "lad/pub/drinking culture". So it's really Britains access to Europe is the main reason and the culture that comes with football.
Posh people wearing 5000 dollar Gucci tracksuits to appear street is like Brit aristos and their constant swearing with their fake cockney accents. So repellent.
he is so hot ah!
Which one? I like the skateboarder
Reeek
I still don't get white trainers. They just don't create a good silhouette.
reek
PLEASE don't show people chew on video
What a load of rubbish. Lets get actors and dress them up in River Island gear and pretend this is how they dress every day and get them to spurt some rubbish about how lad culture and fashion are such a great match. Leave it out.
except this is literally Alfie Allen's own clothes and how he always dresses. Google him instead of spewing nonsense. Alfie's worn that particular cap all summer of 2016. It's on a ton of photos. And those nike shoes have been his for months, and the green jacket for longer than that. In fact, he almost always wears those exact clothes that you see in this interview.
Calm down stan. Im not talking about the celebrities, the actor kids they got pretending to hang out at some skate park wearing river island clothes that look straight from the rack. Who wears a shearling jacket to a skate park?
Alright, I stand corrected. :)
bunch of middle class toffs appropriating working class fashion to look edgy
Yikes
Style..and wearing a track suit. Definitely no style and no self respect.
More NORMcore . ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, Who cares .
spread to London in the 90's? ZERO credibility, right there
Black guy representing British style. WTF?
wtf is your problem
@@EFCkingTom let's showcase a white guy to represent Japanese style. I'm tired of the constant onslaught of anti-white propaganda.
@@bobhaverbeck7585 you do realise there are 2nd-3rd generation British black people who participated in the original casual culture?
