New r/Streetwear related IG account

Posted: 19 Sep 2017 01:38 AM PDT

I had an idea to make an ig account that showcases the best of wdywt, decided both by obvious sick fits as well as some of the fits that should maybe get some more love at the bottom of the threads, along with some chosen due to my opinions and aesthetic. I tried looking for an active one as I'm sure this isn't too original of an idea, but it's something fun to do for me and I think it will weed out a lot of the normie shitposting that fills up these threads. I will be tagging the users if they have linked their ig, and the captions are usually just going to be song lyrics that I have stuck in my head at the time. So yea if you're interested follow the account @best.of.wdywt , I will be posting daily and remain active. Also, I would greatly appreciate some tips as to what you would like to see in addition to what I've suggested.

Why Does This Still Exist?

Something ya'll need - How to NOT be a Hypebeast

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 11:39 AM PDT

Is streetwear (and fashion as a whole) a non-zero-sum game.

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 11:26 AM PDT

A common voice in this sub is that people don't experiment enough with their fits and end up looking generic or played out.

My counter to this is that dressing is most likely a non-zero-sum game.

The color wheel isn't really up for debate. Colors either clash or complement each other and thats a fact of life. You rarely see someone where a fit where the colors clash unless a single piece has a bright or loud clashing design on it, and even then the complimenting pieces are usually quieter to balance it out.

Additionally streetwear is well defined. Its less "fitted" and "proper". Would you be wearing it to a black tie event? Would you be taking it to the country club? If not it has a place in streetwear. You have hoodies that are elongated, cropped, or normal. Pants that are rolled up or stacked or just there. Simply put, you have a list of clothing that fit the streetwear image.

The simple results of the previous two observations are you have, albeit, a rather large matrix of rewards that spans a set dictionary of clothing and colors. And due to this well defined matrix we are given fits that are well scoring and thus well worn.

So the repetitive fits aren't directly a result of lack of creativity but rather the list not expanding which although a consumer end problem something only designers and producers can fix.

Now heres a common argument against my idea:

"But the asians are out here flexing on us with their fresh af fits"

After extensive travel through HK, China and Japan while being a resident of Seoul, South Korea I can assure you they have the same problem. Everyone here dresses the same. Just not the same as you. BUT they have the advantage of having more producers locally available. What does that mean? Your clothes are most likely made in some factory in Asia. So getting your clothes to you to your market is a pretty extensive process if you consider the logistics of moving product through borders.

Speaking on Korea only know since this is what I have most experience with, trends rise and fall even quicker here due to the access of all these different products and styles for cheap. Im not saying the quality on these are amazing but I can get higher end H&M/Zara (you know Fast Fashion) stuff for fraction of the price. I've got lines of "ikea" Shirts, pants and coats available to me for 10-20 dollars and if i wore some of that stuff back home in Vancouver I'd be unique but if I wore it in S.K I'd be another face in the crowd. Asia just deals with a different clothing matrix, one that you don't see at all unless you look for it in the west, so that is why their fits are more "creative" to you.

TL;DR: There are a set dictionary of clothes and a rule of color so fits are usually similar until a designer comes up with a new way to shape an established piece of clothing and asia just has different clothes than you.

Goth brands

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 04:50 PM PDT

So I was walking down the street today and walked by a fit I thought was pretty nice.

Dark brown (maybe lightly bleached black) cons, well fitted straight leg black jeans with a wallet chain, black hoodie with some orange print on the chest and white text on the neck line, and a ACW shoulder/chest bag.

What are some brands/ instagrams that have this sort of style? (Besides Vetements)

Any idea of wear to find jeans that are slim fit, but have a little bit of a taper at the ankle?

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 09:44 PM PDT

First off, it's VERY hard for me to find jeans in general. I'm 6'2, 190lbs and usually get my jeans from GAP in a size 32-32 ( usually stretch fit) I just picked up some ultra boost and a pair of royal 2s, and when I worse them with my GAP jeans, they were very very baggy and covered up the shoe. My main goal is to find a slim fit jean, with a little bit of taper in the ankle, to make the shoes pop. Do any of you have some suggestions? Thank you , I really appreciate it

Best yellow shirts/hoodies?

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 07:47 PM PDT

As title says, I've got a bit of a yellow fetish and am always looking for good pieces. Goodwill has been a lifesaver (brokeboi gang), but I'm looking for new clothing as well to mix it up. Anything from simple tees to crazy designer shit just trying to create an idea of stuff to buy.
