to wear Superdry at 39

[WinlessChunder]

I bought myself a gorgeous Superdry coat yesterday. Didn't know much about the brand but I liked it, I needed one and it felt good quality so I bought it!

Afterwards I couldn't help but notice that it was mainly teenagers wearing Superdry and when I got home my DH gave me a and suggested I was too old for it. although he has the fashion sense of Jeremy Clarkson so I don't tend to take any notice of his clothes-related comments

It's bugging me now though - should I be wearing Superdry when I hit the big 40 next year?

Its fine, dont take any notice of the boden brigade.
I have a superdry gillet and before it got really cold i lived in it, can wear it with anything.
I think anything is fine if its not emblazoned across the front

coat looks warm and covers your kidneys (v important in my book)

but like others i was thinking you were referring to conti pads.....

I like it.

I had my eye on a Superdry jacket only to find out that my husband's stepmum (who is approaching 50 but is very into fashion) had already got it. Grrr. I'm 36, btw.

I am late 30s and have supedry t-shirts as they suit me. It is everywhere though so I am sure its time as a cool brand is over. Yanbu.

I thought this was a thread about incontinence pads. And for some reason I still clicked on it. I've never heard of Superdry.

My DS (19) says Superdry is one of those brands that everyone at school wears so that it becomes really chavvy common.
She is above it apparently!

I don't know where that leaves you, it's up to you I guess. It might be along the lines of Roxy a few years ago in terms of popularity.

Really? Miniskirts are off bounds? :(

What if you have better legs than many 20 yo?

Ditto bout it being bout sanitary wear!

Love the jacket, deffo not too young :)

Too old!!!!!!

I'm 55, DH is 56 we oth have Superdry items in our wardrobes ( mine is a jumper, he has 2 Tshirts )

You purchased the jacket because you liked it, not for the name. YANBU

My dad has a Superdry jacket and is 70. He looks great in it.

Tres fashionable right now but brand name reminds me of incontinence pads or launderettes.

I have seen middle aged Dads wearing it

I dont go along with the too old to wear something theory, the main thing is if it suits you and you dont feel ridiculous in it.

I have a superdry jacket and t shirt, the jacket has a small logo on the sleeve cuff i believe and the t shirt hasnt got one at all. My bf has a similar jacket to mine and a few hoodies and t shirts and they suit us both.

I am 45 and the bf is 40. If you like it wear it.

I think hoodies look ridiculous on anyone over a certain age as well

Wear what you want, when you want. All this 'am I too old/young' stuff is ageist nonsense.

Im nearly 46, and knew what Superdry was...

only because my 15yr old neice asked for some Superdry boxer shorts for xmas

Are you me? I am 39 and keep looking at Superdry things...they have such nice shapes! I thought I was too old but apparently I'm not!

I am 42 and I wear superdry tshirts because I like the fit and the style/logos.

I do like the coat style but the logo is awful. The Japanese is incorrect and actually doesn't make any sense at all. Very uncool - at least in Tokyo :p I only ever see people over the age of 30 wearing them and assumed it was a mid life crisis garment?

Superdry is such a funny brand with its poncy pseudo-Japanese characters.

You do know it is all made up - no more Japanese than you or me (well if you a Scottish like me!). It's all been made up by a guy from Cheltenham in 2003! He taped into the Retro American and cool Japan vibe and created a mishmash.

You are paying ££ for branding that doesn't even mean anything!

No offence, but every time I see someone in a Superdry coat the judgey pants come on!

I'm 48 and bought a fairisle cardigan from Superdry last year - my 15 yo DD thought it looked fine on me. Great quality and washes well. You can hardly see the logo on it - I wouldn't buy their hoodies or t-shirts though - definitively chavvy.

Wear with pride!

Btw Superdry is a favourite brand for lesbians, so is Bench.
