It’s not hard to remember a time when getting an A-list wardrobe required a bank balance as puffy as P Diddy’s.
The same goes for the kind of labels hanging inside the closets of Jamie Foxx, Tyga, Swae Lee, French Montana and Scott Disick which were, sure, extremely cool, but almost always eye-wateringly expensive.
But things have changed. And given that all these red carpet heavyweights have all been spotted in a range that starts from just £5, it’s clear that looking good is no longer all about the Benjamins.
Founded in 2013 and launched as a standalone platform three years later, boohooMAN has established itself as one of the web’s premier locations for trend-led menswear that’s just as at home in the Hollywood Hills as they are on the streets of its hometown, Manchester.
Considering that these famous fans of the etailer’s branded MAN range aren’t short of a quid or two, either, speaks volumes about the products, which are quickly becoming the new standard in affordable basics.
Applied to everything from T-shirts and hoodies to accessories and activewear, the MAN logo has become a must-have for both everyday fashion fans and tinsel town’s biggest players.
So before you attempt to beg, borrow or steal from the most stylish celebrities, check out these 10 key products to get some for yourself (before the A-list nab it all).
Original MAN Print Over The Head Hoodie

Original Man Logo Print T-Shirt

No millionaire rapper got there by only wearing black and white clobber. Stand out from the crowd and get noticed in this eye-catching T-shirt. The bold styling makes it a great way to give your outfit a focal point and introduce a splash of color to any look.
