Haha... I saw a man wearing Ugg boots the other day, they looked hideous but it gave me a giggle!

Velour tracksuits are indeed shit, but you will have to pry my Ugg style boots [not real Uggs, I'm too poor and can't afford the real ones] out of my cold, dead hands, quite frankly.

did yo9u wear them in the snow?

Oddly, when I expected to see them most, (due to the warmth they give apparently) I saw them the least

is it because they are, infact, not at all functional and are not equipped to deal with moisture?

You do realise they they are intended to be worn on the feet?

I wonder what it is about velour that's so naff? I agree that it is, but I'm not sure why. I suppose it makes people look like badly stuffed cushions, it doesn't hide much!

Yeah, they weren't too bad. I'd by lying if I said they didn't get a little bit damp, though.

Pssh, gloves are so passe.

What is wrong with velour bottoms?

I wear them indoors, they're useful for lounging about the house in or when doing housework. Thats one of the first things I do when I get in, I change out of everyday clothing into velour bottoms.

You'll probably find that 96% of Women feel the same way. Horrendous things!

they are tantamount to pyjamas, as uggs are to slippers

they are acceptable, but still not good indoors.

For me it's more a case of the stark reality that most of the people you see in tracksuits of any description are usually so hideously overweight that these are the only garments they can haul over their gargantuan buttocks.

If only they would wear them to undertake some form of exercise, then they might discover that an array of other types of clothing would be available to them.

What are women supposed to wear indoors instead. What meets with your approval, please don't say a nice little dress.

Just checked my backside, it doesn't come anywhere near the word gargantuan. I'm about half a stone overweight but I wouldn't say I'm hideous or look it.

They suit a purpose.

The first two wouldn't be a good idea with a toddler in the house. The others are what I dress in when I'm out of the house. When I'm at home I want to be comfortable, velours fit the bill. I've got nice chocolate coloured pair on now, very comfy. I've got a vest top on with them, don't say they're a no, no too.

They're probably classed as pyjamas by Tesco, so there's one thing you can't do in them.

I wore my (real) uggs all through the snowy weather and they kept my feet so warm and didn't let any water through at all. Of course they are now wrecked from the salt but they are so warm and toasty I reall don't care and won't be giving them up till it becomes sandal weather again

I said most - not all!!

The term "hideous" is in reference to the degree of overweightedness - not the individual themselves.

I'm sure you're just lovely!

why would a toddler affect your ability to be naked or wear lingerie?

They aren't waterproof so I guess you wouldn't see that many when it snowed?

(or are they waterproof? I don't know - I don't own a pair as I think they are horrid!!)

Where I live most of the over weight women tend to wear short skirts or very tight jeans with a muffin top. I think I'm doing well in the velours, I look almost classy.

When you see the 'wide load' trogs wandering about in velour tracksuits , holy mother of god , do these oafs wear it with the intention of saying 'Im a useless fat arsed trog & im proud'?

Ugg boots , another item of footwear that i wouldnt insult the charity shops with. Some halfwit footballers wife / zelebrity film star dons a pair & lo & behold 3million clones have to have them as well.

What a f***ed up country.

I saw an old lady (over 65) last week on the tube, wearing juicy couture velour tracksuit bottoms, a fur jacket, and some expensive looking high heels.

She looked ridiculous
