Casual clothing

Pre-owned casual clothing from brands such as Dickies, Carhartt WIP, Lacoste, The North Face, Nike and Adidas, from sweatshirts and hoodies to jackets, trousers and T-shirts. How the casual style is put together is explained in the casual style guide.

Sweatshirts, hoodies and jumpers

The crewneck sweatshirt and the hoodie are the base of casual clothing. Most are made from cotton or a cotton blend with a brushed inside, and have ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem. Russell Athletic, Champion, Nike, Adidas and Carhartt WIP make them with a printed or embroidered logo, and Lacoste adds knitted jumpers and cardigans.

Jackets

Casual jackets are light and easy to wear. Nike, Adidas and Puma make track jackets, windbreakers are made from nylon, and The North Face adds puffer jackets, rain jackets and shell jackets. What to check on a track jacket is set out in the sportswear guide.

Trousers and T-shirts

Dickies work pants, such as the straight-leg 874, and cargo pants sit next to track pants from Adidas and Nike and jeans from Levi's and Tommy Hilfiger. Trousers are sized as waist by inseam in inches, for example 34x30. T-shirts come plain, with a chest pocket or with a printed graphic.

Size and measurements

Casual clothing is often cut loose or unisex, so the size on the label is a rough guide. Each top and jacket is measured at four points: across the chest from armpit to armpit, the length of the body, across the shoulders and the length of the sleeve.
