Back to a new topic, if you have chosen to read this article, you probably understand yourself and what style you have chosen. The coordination of clothes according to cultures is always associated with the stories behind it, why do they wear such clothes and is there anything about the clothes that help you look beautiful or does it have any other uses?
Hip Hop Culture
To talk about hip hop culture. In its original meaning, “hip” means “in fashion”, but it also has an additional meaning of “knowing how to get by”. And “hop” is a sound word that suggests a leap, a leap forward. Taken together, “Hiphop” has a positive connotation of “progress and advancement through intelligence and resourcefulness”.
Hip hop began as a musical genre, and gradually became a cultural movement that emerged in the 1970s in the Bronx, New York.
They originated from the ghettos - where the poor and people of color lived, associated with many of the darkest and most social evils of that time.
New York is the birthplace of today's global popular culture.
WOWW do you guys see that you have a new meaning for the two words "Hip Hop"?
But today we will not go into depth to learn about it but how a person living in this culture coordinates or wears clothes.
To become a true hiphop player, you must have a passion related to hiphop, for example: Breakingdance, popping, locking, stepping, house, street dance, ... However, when talking about Hip hop, people often mention more about Breakingdance as a representative of Hip hop culture.
And from here comes this dance culture where their outfits are usually baggy jeans, oversized tee shirts, Nike Dunk shoes, Jordan shoes, or SB Dunk shoes if they are true skaters.
Another element that is also in Hiphop culture is the element of Graffiti. People who play this sport are exposed to a lot of spray paint, so their costumes are decorated in some magical way that gives them their own unique quality. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are graffiti players.
Finally, to summarize Hip Hop culture, everyone will know and popularize with the phrase "Rap music". Rap players wear everything as long as they feel comfortable and express their own style. They have gangs and teams in Vietnam. Rap culture is praised by lyrics full of admiration and respect, different from foreign Rap culture. They Rap to express their ego and the desires they want. Finally, everything that hip hop fashion brings is not only a stepping stone for contemporary fashion now but also a legacy that will last forever.
Skateboarding Culture
To talk about skate, let's review some notable events about this culture.
The first skateboard was born in the late 1950s, but 20 years later, this extreme sport became popular among young people, and at the same time, 2 forms of skateboarding were also divided into Freestyle - freestyle skating and Radical - performing skills and tricks.
In 1980, the early days of the rebellious, unconventional movement, skaters began to appear more and more on the streets of America, along with turning the streets into playgrounds.
It was not until the 2000s that this type of extreme sport began to appear in Vietnam. Although it appeared quite late, skateboarding appeared at the same time that Hip-Hop culture began to enter Vietnam.
So how do skateboarders dress?
As a skater, they worship creative freedom, are comfortable in the way they dress, and live a liberal, inspiring lifestyle.
When it comes to clothing, skaters don’t have a specific “uniform”. They wear what they like, what they feel comfortable in, what they think inspires them.
Each skater will have their own unique style, no two are alike, from the way they dress, to their demeanor when skating, and when performing tricks.
Let's take a look at some of the outfits that just by looking at them you will immediately know that it is a real skateboarder.
They often wear dickies chicanos or double knee pants.
To learn more about the history surrounding the Double Knee Pants, click on the link below.
Graphic tees are also an indispensable choice when going out in cold weather. It can be a hoodie. Hoodies can be combined with many types of pants, including jeans, chinos, cargo pants or trouser pants.
This is definitely a good choice for those who want a natural, modern style while still maintaining the skater style spirit. All you need to do is choose a loose, comfortable hoodie, preferably with a logo or graphic printed on the shirt.
Workpant is also a perfect choice, Double knee relax pant is not only limited to wearing it to work with jobs that require protection to your bottom.
From there, the intensity of practicing techniques in skateboarding has a lot of impact on the knees as well as the legs in a miraculous way. Double knee relax pant meets all the above criteria. From there, following the path of skaters, Double knee also gradually entered the fashion trend.
The most important thing for a skater is that it reflects their personality not only through their clothes but also through their shoes. The fact that a pair of Vans is really "beat" and the damage extends from the upper to the tongue reflects something about the skateboarder.
They also often wear Nike SB shoes, a part that everyone knows is that Nike SB shoes have had the name for a long time "SB" also means SKATE BOARDING and now Nike SB shoes are once again revived after many years of silence and also synonymous with the skateboarding movement being excited once again.
CHOLO Culture
If you are a frequent visitor to this section, you probably already know that I have written about this culture.
Actually being a cholo is not just about the way you dress but also about the way you live.
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 "cholos" because striped patterns are always associated with rock, hiphop, that's 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".
CULTURE AND CLOTHES REALLY SAY ABOUT PEOPLE
After all, cultures have distinct characteristics that can be evaluated from many aspects.
They always have their own way of life, hip hop players always follow their own rules, they are inherently artistic people, their perspective is always diverse and colorful.
The clothes they wear also partly assess their feelings that day.
Hiphop life is very rich, they like to immerse themselves in their passion so their clothes do not follow any rules.
As for skateboarders, for them skateboarding is a passion, an addiction that is hard to quit. To put it simply, the high intensity training makes it impossible for skateboarders to have any rules for a basic and certain outfit.
Skate is not only a sport, but also reflects a spiritual life between skaters. They respect each other and always learn from each other.
Fashion is not just about mixing and matching shirts and pants, but also about who you are. If you have been participating in activities in the above cultures, you must have the confidence to wear outfits that others may say you are different, but those who understand you will look at you with admiration.
TOBI always gives you options so you can pick up items that you like that are not only beautiful on the outside but also last over time.
