Get the chav mug.Basically the people who are left behind in society in Britain, they often wear the same tracksuits and stuff, they might either have a Cex drawstring bag around them or a JD sports drawstring bag around them. They can be kinda racist too, I was once told to “go back to my country” by chav, chavs made up most of the BNP voters and a lot of EDL supporters were chavs, there is such thing as football chavs to which are basically chavs but there insanely into football

Get the Chav mug.A chav is a girl version of Britain’s famous ‘roadman’.
Chavs often have a cockney accent and use lots of British slang.
They also dress usually with a messy bun, caked makeup and a tracksuit.
They often have handbags too.
Chavs usually use texting language such as:
rahhh, bare jarrin, innit, my g, fam, bruv, mate.
They sometimes misspell words deliberately to give that “British” look.
