Sloane Ranger

Uncommon card · No. 171530

A Sloane Ranger, or simply a Sloane, is a stereotypical upper-middle or upper-class person in the United Kingdom, typically although not necessarily a young one, who embodies a very particular upbringing and outlook. The style, described in the 1982 book The Official Sloane Ranger Handbook, is characterised by conservative, branded heritage clothing typically associated with aristocratic fashion. Its counterpart in the United States is the preppy style and in France is bon chic bon genre. The term is a pun based on references to Sloane Square, a location in Chelsea, London, famed for the wealth of its residents and frequenters, and the television character The Lone Ranger.
