One of my favorite independent brands that I wear

IMO all their shirts are fire, plus I like this brand extra because they still have hot designs, and they make them for people that are a little bit bigger.None of that "we only carry Large and Extra Large" BS.

Excellent Post

while i work in this industry i agree somewhat with the posts stated. The issue is what we a person might consider street wear/culture might be differant fromthe next. While i agree that skateboardin had some effect on culture i think its givin to much credit, its put way to much on a perch as if everythin came fromthat. Dudes like supreme state that they are skater and are the OGs to the game and blah blah and hate everyone that aint a skater or sold out, while in thesame aspect theyve done the same. They make hyped items, make people stand in the line for Lighters and treat people like #!#+ who enter their store justbecause that person isnt wearin skinny jeans and has a board. I do belive that street culture =/= wear began in the hood, the urban city. We took it for whatwe wanted and conformed to it, We took the Polo and the Nautica , etc... and made it ours, it wasnt only some wall street banker wearin Nautica on his yacht,it was us, wearin it with timbs, chillin on the corner/stoop. And because of that everythin else came from it....You look at lines now? they have all turnedback to those roots, the polo-esque era. Look at crooks, everythin is gucci colored because it relates to the hood. Sorry but i dont see skaters wearin Gucci,majority of skaters i know girls jeans, vans and a no brand tee, so i honestly dont know how they effected us.

Ehh I hate to jock Supreme but I hear ya with the skateboarding, I don't know that I agree but I understand where you're coming from, but Supreme isprobably the only or at very least one of the few brands that I feel fully functions within the full spectrum of the streets from High Art to 90's Hip-Hopand everything in between that truly understands what their doing and shows that. I don't credit that to them being skateboarders they're more artistswho understand how art and culture truly function. It's very hard for me to explain without feeling like I'm giving you a saleable concept of howco-opting functions in even the art world and while I think most of these streetwear companies do it, they either don't get or show they get the precedentof what their doing.



The hype and how they treat people is a secondary result of what they design and where that comes from.

Acrylick

Music plays a big part in my life, like before I started expanding my musical horizons, I use to be that gangsta dude wearing air force ones, girbaud jeans,and a throw back jersey

. But now that I am musically versatile, and Ilisten to everything, from rap, to rock, to electronica, my attire has done a complete 180, no more baggy clothes, I try my hardest not to have the same shoesas other people in my area, and I get the occasional designer item from time to time, i.e. louis vuitton, gucci, ect ect

but anyways, music is my life, and I love every bit of it

Theres a Tats mural on the wall of one of my pops buildings. Right outside of my window.
