I have a good idea what chavs are. I think I learned it from Lady Sovereign.
As a matter of fact I was walking downtown earlier today and saw this guy and said "hmm, he looks like a chav".
From what I gather, the closest thing is a whigger (but not an all-out hardcore ghetto one). Athletic shoes, track jackets, track suits, etc. and tend to listen to hip-hop and electronic music perhaps. Trailer trash are usually dirtier and not as specific...some are into rap, some rock and metal, some country, etc. But they're generally dirty whereas chavs, from my understanding, care more about appearances and like to show off their cash/bling/whatever.
