There is a core group of fashion brands that were recognized by Casuals. Some may vary or dismiss certain brands, this comes down to a regional or club difference in most cases.
They all design and market their product with the higher end consumer in mind, some drawing upon a long standing tradition/heritage: from tailoring, to military/functional wear, outwear, to sports attire of prestige ie. polo, tennis, sailing & golf.
Key styles: Trench coat, turtle roll neck, v-neck knitwear, fitted polo shirt, zip-through training top, straight leg pant or jean, a tennis/court shoe or brogue.
