Why is this, when 'casual' or 'scally' clothes and attitudes came to dominate not only British...

[Danilovsky]

Scally or Scallie, is originally short for Scallywag, but is now most-often used in the context of fashion-conscious hooligans. It is a slang term for a social subculture youth, similar to "chav", but with different origins. The term is used across the UK, predominantly in the north-west of England and particularly in Liverpool and Manchester to describe mostly young, working class people.

Often romanticised through TV programmes like Brookside and Bread, the word 'scally' during the 1970s and 1980s meant someone who was a pioneer in fashion trends, and someone who was resourceful beyond his means with limited resources to begin with. During the 1990s the term started to be used to describe a yob or a hooligan or scally wag.
