LIFEJACKET

What were his first ever pair? Which ones did he wear on his debut? And what was the reason for wearing ‘those’ particular boots for the final in Istanbul?In Episode 1 of The Boot Room, presented by LIFEJACKET the ultimate ‘One Club Man’ Jamie Carragher sits down with Fenners to look back at his career and the boots he wore throughout his 737 games for the Anfield outfit. Each shoebox tells a story, from his academy days at Liverpool, winning the treble in 2001 and of course the miracle of Istanbul in 2005. Candid, brutally honest and funny, Carra not only unboxes the boots but some brilliant stories with his inimitable insight and humour.

Did Oasis talk about what they were going to wear? Where did Noel shop in the early days? Which get-up left the Oldham Athletic fans speechless, and which jacket would he rush to save in an emergency?

In this, the first ever Lifejacket conversation Noel Gallagher talks to Fenners about his love of casual culture.

The Oasis star and Manchester City fan charts his sartorial upbringing in Manchester, citing musical and fashion influences mirrored on the terraces at Maine Road and around the country. Noel talks of his love for Stone Island, C.P. Company, as well as the sportswear brands of the 1980’s. 

Amidst rumours of a run of Knebworth gigs in 2026, Fenners reunites the songwriting genius with a Boss piece of Knebworth history, and Noel explains how it felt when legendary adidas SPZL curator Gary Aspden invited him to help create his own bespoke adidas trainer, likening it to ‘ Paul McCartney asking you to write a B-side for The Beatles’. 

Hope you enjoy the conversation and join us on our journey.
