Pink polo shirts were in fashion in the 1980s. I was there.
But did it have the same class transition?
It's also interesting that the color switched garments. The "lager louts" aren't going to look like businessmen if they wear polo shirts. Are they trying to? if not, why the same color?
In London, there is a reasonable overlap between set businessmen and set lager louts.
Didn't start with businessmen, unless you mean businessmen visiting Martha's Vinyard in the off-season. I don't know if lager louts, wide boys, chavs, spides, neds, and scally lads ever wore them. I hope none of those things are ethnic slurs.
They're not ethnic slurs.
I'm pretty sure some of them are class slurs, if you want to get down to nitty gritty.
