This era isnt any better. Everyone is looking like a carbon copy with that adidas hoodie and joggers with some nmd r1s, yeezys, tie dye and rock and metal shirts pastel colors, Dad hats and airmaxes. ripped up skinnies. Off white was cool for a minute then they blew up. I do fukk with some of the new Jordans and Nikes but its just too oversaturated at this point. I like wearing different shyt.edit: boosts in general and zipper pants too

 

[DaPresident]

Rocawear
Enyce
Mecca

all of which I wish would come back...less gaudy of course...

I’m sick of this “designer” era. Urban brands were cool man...smh. I used to LOVE girbaud jeans and Maurice Malone...them jeans cut perfect for Timbs, to just show the front of the boot (double soles of course, not none of that “buttnaked” ish )

I always dressed like I was from “New York” lol cuz my relatives live in Jersey City so I learned from them and rappers lol...good times back then

but Ecko that was that try hard stuff...

There are so many different fashion waves going on at once now its insane as the whole model has changed so much. Gone are the days when you'd get a few years out of a look because they keep on flipping the script so quickly for those that try and stay on trend to keep the tills ringing as everyone does it for the Gram and doesn't want to be left behind.

That said things that looks crisp, clean and well fitted with no big ass logos or wild patterns will never be unfashionable because an outfit that is well tailored with good lines always looks fresh.

It is interesting how generic it all is now though thanks to the distribution model. Back in the days when I used to pop tags you had a handful of boutique stores that got one, maybe two of each piece in so you'd guarantee no one else could be rocking your look . Wasn't no innanets to find something like that or places with racks on racks, just a one man band who enjoyed threads running a business (usually with a booming system and great vibe) hooking up a small group of people who were all about exclusivity.

These days folks must roll up in the spot like this:

​

because if they ain't shopping at the same place then wherever the are has copied the same designs anyway.

even when it came out I don't understand how brehs was paying 100 for fat albert shirts

I rocked a lot of FUBU..I wish I still had my baseball Jersey from that era

But the fat Albert shyt was doing too much..I never liked how it looked

Same here, I was a FUBU head until 01 when they switched everything up to that stupid shyt. Seems like the quality even went downhill after thatl.

JNCO


I owned 5 pairs of those thangs...never the super widelegged ones though...always the ones that were just baggy enough without having to trip over the hem of my jeans.

You hit up raves breh? I owned a pair that had a secret compartment in the leg to stash pills
