What is your style?

[Guest]

Maybe I'm johnny come lately and ya'll been through this before, but how would you describe your style? What are your current favorite brands? and ones that have really drawn your attention lately?

if ya'll feel like it what magazines do you read, and what websites do you mess with the most

I'll start so folks can join in

I guess I go for the wild expensive urban thug look, kinda like cam'ron minus the pink, which I'm sure is a concept a lot of you would find funny, but thats me

ideal outfit is a chinchilla hoody(gotta upgrade from my current mink status, $500 jeans, $5 white tee, 20 gees in jewlery, and whatever, sneakers/boots that look right and hopefully you can't get. And in this dream I'd be hopping out of a silver Rolls Phantom, but I think you all get the idea

I'd call myself the predecossor of the 80's harlem hustler, pretty much high fashion aspiration with ghetto fabulous

I won't even lie to ya'll I love quality and construction, but the biggest selling points to me for an item is if it looks dope, fits me baggy, and I can be one of like 5 people in america who can have the item

as for brands right now I keep things limited

shirts:

1. white tees, yeah I wear 5x, but I swear guys I'm gonna downsize to the 4 soon

2. Custom T-shirts and thermals by Don-a-tion (did wardrobe for the Boyz in the Hood "dem boys" video)

3. Custom thermals by Christinzio Pichardo (philly canvas artist)

4. Royaltees t-shirts

5. even a M&N or authentic jersey occasionally, because even though I wore jerseys 365 days a year since 2000 and the styles "played" I still like it

Jackets:

light jackets pretty much substitute everything where others would wear a polo or a button up, so I can be "CLEAN IN MY WHITE TEE!!" and show off some jewlery

1. NBA Championship jackets (GIII x total sport collabo)

2. NFL Superbowl Jackets (again GIII x total sports collabo)

3. Basic flight Jackets

4. any track type jacket that looks nice and is big

5. I'm also a big fan of Mitchell & Ness's new NBA warm-up/track jackets too

For the winter

6. Fur, I only have one black mink, but I'd like to be buried with 50 jackets when I die

7. Leather- pelle pelle, wissam, and whatevers next thats interesting

3. Wool Jackets- M&N varsity styles, and a few custom joints

Sweat Suits

I'm certified sweat suit junkie, and buy basically any style thats "classy" (to me) and has a zipper front

Kicks:

1. Nike- either classic styles, or limited shoes that I can work with (of course white air one junkie)

1.5 Jordan- Retro's in workable colors

2. Timbs- modest colored constructs, and occasionaly a field boot

3. Vasque- Huge fan of the Skywalk boot (no biscuit Toes!!!) new Jersey Classic, what can I say

4. occasionally as classic reebok or adidas

5. Designers- when the style isn't too couture (fave shoe all time 80's gucci tennis so you can understand)

Jeans

1. John Richmond- I can only wear their baggiest cut in a 40, but nothin respresents my person like $500 jeans that say "rich" across the ass

2. Evisu- American styles

3. Red Monkey

4. selected designers- ex.) whenever Gucci or versace makes a really baggy jean I buy it

5. e=Mc^2- over-priced for the quality, but again I love saying "I've got it and you don't"

6. Parasuco- new jersey classic

7. Sean John- ideal cut for my style

And designer shades are my new shit for the summer. cause I'm tired of chicks tryin to read my eyes

I gotta say though this site has really helped to enlightened my denim game. It has made me wanna buy some Nudie jeans, and other high-quality denims, but most especially the Japan edition Evisu's

Beyond that I read every hip-hop, and DUBish car magazine every month, and complex, floss, and ballin magazines

I'm sure ya'll is like I'm not gonna waste my time sayni what you said, but It'd be interesting to know what ya'll like and such
