Is it considered naff because it is not one's own style? or because the majority of the "sheep" are wearing something different I wonder, whichever, it matters not a jot, wear what you like and feel good in.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.

I think they are naff because they are not fit for pupose and look silly. Its like buying shoes with holes on the soles or trousers with the bum cut out etc.They dont keep you warm or dry so whats the point in them?
Its not about them not being my style its because they are just pointess.0 -
I like the look of them, but I've never got on with them. If it's cold I wear a coat. I can't envisage on occasion when my body needs to be warmer than my arms.
I bought two which I wore once or twice before they ended up hanging in my wardrobe for months and finally being given to charity shops.0 -

But they do keep you warm and are very convenient and look good, naff is personal opinion, they are very useful when the weather is in-between seasons and there is more to life then pure practicality,0 -
It's like wearing fingerless gloves - warmth with flexibility. The main area with blood flow (hand or body) is kept warm, but you can easily move your fingers or arms about - they may not be kept warm by the items but they're not as cold as they would be without them. Has anyone seen my post about perfume in Asda?0
