Polish love in Britain of the Tracksuit

No malicious hate or xenophobic intent here (calm down poles, polish-lovers and die hard polish wannabes)

You cannot deny the polish love of the tracksuit! Many times i've seen older middle aged Polish people sporting some dodgy-coloured nike tracksuit.
Obviously the young poles wear tracksuits alot as well.. more so than the Brits i think (and that's saying something!)

Italian-Americans seem to love wearing them.

am quite surprised by this. i know a lot of polish people and ive never seen any of them in tracksuits! my lodger sometimes wears tracksuit bottoms, but with a t shirt. normally he just wears jeans.

Unfortunately this is true, but you will not find an educated Pole in tracksuit. Tracksuit wear people of a low social status mostly or people who grown up in poor family and still have contact with those people. I have a bunch of them in my town, freaks :D. They are here like gangs of tracksuits and shaived heads. Even though we/my neighborhood have one in a wheelchair who wears this :) and he has a lot of tracksuits friends...this one looked really cool in my opinion, like orange on banana trea. I prefer to stay away from them...don't know really why, maybe because they look like they were doing some dirty business :), I just said Hi few times cos they are my neighbors :) They are visible because their meeting place is the street usually. Normally, people meet at home/flat or club.

Don't worry, I think your opinion is not malicious. But tell me please, what we should do with them?? If you told them not to wear tracksuits I'm sure they will punch you in the face :D, and I'm not very brave :)

We wear them because they symbolize the American dream for us. I've been dreaming of leaving Poland for a long time. When I did, first thing I did when I came to Canada is buy a matching tracksuit. Now I've got like 8 in my closet. Why not, it's a nice style.

I think the slight difference in fashion is that while Polish guys prefer Adidas tracks (Poland): British guys go for much softer style like LaCoste: such sophistication!

it's because adidas comes from our German neighbors lol it's sentimental
