What is Cholo? How does the Cholo style define yourself? This is a new topic, a style that has existed for a long time but has recently resurfaced. To better understand the style of a true Cholo and the legendary Doubleknee wide-leg pants that always go with the image of Cholos at that time, don't miss this article.
WHAT IS CHOLO?
“Cholo” - is a term used to describe Spanish gangsters from southern California, the Bay Area, southern Florida and parts of southwest Texas.
They are low-income people in a complex living environment, characterized by “bad” and rebellious dress. The use of these terms comes from many different times, contexts and aspects, bringing different meanings.
The Cholo/Chola are the youth of the 1980s generation, following on from the Pachuco (male)/Pachuca (female) of the 1940s and the Chicano (male)/Chicana (female) of the 1960s.
And all those who love the cultural identity of Pachuca de Soto (Mexico)
Nowadays, in the evolution of fashion increasingly towards Minimal, Chola will cause an unpleasant look for the majority of tastes.
However, this underground wave still transmits signals and infiltrates everywhere in the Latina community.
The way of dressing, make-up and even the dialect of the Cholo/Chola people have formed the unique intonation of a cultural community. While only a few young people follow the Cholo style, today the Chola style continues to be “worshipped” as a symbol of lifestyle.
HOW DOES CHOLO STYLE DEFINE YOUR PERSONALITY?
All you need is a loose tee, a cholo can wear other shirts like polo or short sleeve shirts, especially graphic tees are always welcomed with many patterns that are in the hiphop street culture.
But if you need anything to be a cholo, the first thing is that the shirts must be loose.
Besides, fashion brands are always spacious with many designs in the 90s. Brands like Ben Davis, Jocker, Lowrider, or Bighouse are always the top choices of cholo.
Above all, at present, fashion brands in Vietnam can still provide you with better fashion products than ever but still make you a true "cholo" in the dusty and very street sense.
Anyway back to the bottom part already have an oversize tee then the next thing you need is a Flannel
Yes, flannel is symbolic of "cholo" because striped patterns are always associated with rock, hiphop, that is what a cholo looks like.
The accessories that cholo wear are sparkling "chains". These images represent mischief and arrogance. The behavior of a cholo is straightforwardness in words and actions, a kind of "like to collide".
It is not the hot temper but the serious respect between the homie or homeboy of hiphop culture and the cholo, the tattoos on the skin express the individuality and religion of a cholo, it often appears on the biceps to attract attention.
A cholo, in addition to his appearance and personality, also has a way of behaving that makes him a culture, as in the song "Lean like a cholo" by Down AKA kilo. Although the song is meant to be fun, the lyrics convey the idea of becoming a cholo, how to express your own stance in clubs, or even how to try to pursue the girl you like. To look like a cholo, you can touch your fists together and place your elbows at a right angle, and lean your body. You can also learn this style through videos for more tips.
From there, today, in modern hiphop, hiphop players have a style of greeting each other that is more like the sign of their gang, group, which is often called a handsign.
After all, this is the last thing that is mentioned about Cholo as a disobedient person. If you really want to be a cholo, you have to accept being a bad student in class and being laughed at by everyone.
You will start asking yourself: What should I do? You will never have to do anything you don't want to do.
However, when you encounter injustice, put your ego aside and jump in to do something.
Of course, if you go too far in this, you may even drop out of school and end up in jail or get into serious trouble. So, know that everything has its limits!!!
KEEP CAML AND PEACE AND HARMONY
CHOLO AND DOUBLE KNEE
At present, to talk about cholo style, Double knee pants are always present as if telling the story of the 90s to the present.
Double knee is not only a wide leg pants that fits the contemporary fashion at that time but also the culture of a cholo. Double knee comes from the working class, representing hard work and all of that is expressed in the pants they wear. As for the culture of cholo, wide leg jeans are a hybrid of hip hop culture and other cultures that are imported and form the cholo culture.
From there, workwear also merged with cholo to make cholo more colorful. During the formation of cholo, there were many cultures and other things, but it still kept its own identity.
Double knee is wide leg pants made from DUCK canvas fabric, but this material is heavy and stiff, which sometimes makes the wearer uncomfortable.
If you really want to experience the Double knee pants with softer material, try a pair of pants made of jeans. If you are pursuing streetwear or simply contemporary hiphop, not to mention living the culture of a cholo, appearance is always an important point to receive respect from everyone.
