Welcome to the future, old man

its obvious that streetwear is the most cancerous. almost to the point where theres no reason for you to even ask the question.

that being said, its no big deal. there will always be people doing things you dont necessarily agree with. im sure you dress in a way that isnt accepted by all perspectives of fashion, so whats the difference?

live and let live anon. the fact that people are so quick to attack only shows their own insecurity and need to be above other people

i think there's a spectrum for streetwear though.

Supreme is the epitome of corny, along with certain other names (palace, CDG play, bape) that are mostly worn as a kind of threshold buy, signifying that you're part of some kind of imaginary conversation about contemporary youth culture. It's status anxiety embodied.

Others primarily just experiment with different looks and shapes, and often still use it to express their status (under cover, number (n)ine, raf, etc) but don't seem to be engaged in a pretentious hype cycle

i personally would not consider those brands streetwear. MAYBE n(n) but not raf or undercover.

while they design with the principle of streetwear in mind, this does not make their lines exclusively streetwear. whereas supreme and bape are more blatantly playing off of the streetwear culture.

Also the suspenders and bow tie shit. Someone explain the appeal of this

I absolutely hate it when guys with huge tattoos dress professionally.

youre blinded by the fact that you actually like the clothes, but theyre very much a part of the internet status-flexing economy

see: new money asians on instagram decked out in paul harnden and guidi. you can usually find a picture or two on their pages with them and rick/at the rick store

>>11556966
Cant tell if sarcasm but i low (high) key agree.

>>11556975
Not sarcasm. It reeks of "little boy playing dress up"

All trends are garbage

>>11556961
Aw man this. My friend wants me to dress in suspenders and a bow tie for her wedding and I am dreading that shit. It's weird because she's actually one of the best dressed people I know, but her taste in men's fashion is a little cringey sometimes.

the "ironically dressing like a beta" subculture that dominates /fa/ is pure cancer.

lmao lurk more pls

>>11555009
A lot of supreme stuff can be corny but a lot of it is pretty decent too. Bape kills me inside. I just really hate the way it looks like it's made for little kids. Palace is primarily a skate brand so it's hard to expect a more fashion aspect to their clothing, but I dig the triferg design honestly.

Instagram or internet based young people who use rare or significant pieces in their outfits, such as Mike the Ruler or Luka Sabbat. I have trouble enjoying a brand as much as I did before when they infect it, fortunately my favorite brand has managed to mostly dodge their influence.

>>11555026
Bape has plenty of nice items such as pic related that are not all branding. I want to say the same for Supreme, but I dislike the way the majority of Supreme's releases are things you would find in a 90s thrift store with 'Supreme' somewhere on them.

what these two said

>>11555009
this is right, although I wouldn't even place the two on the same spectrum because of how different they are conceptually and their purpose in fashion.
honestly there needs to be another term for raf, uc, etc to distinguish from the hypebeast culture that most associate the term """streetwear""" with
