bladee doesn't actually buy and choose clothes. In fact, he doesn't even have a wardrobe. He just imagines an outfit in his head and the clothes that make up that outfit and they appear on his body instantly. I'm so grateful for bladee for created every piece of clothing ever
I grew up watching my older brother scroll the forums of NikeTalk and SoleCollector. It felt fun, and inviting. As I reached the age where I could develop my own style, I found out about ‘facebook groups,’ like WDYWT fit battles, NDSBG marketplace, as well as a surplus of local groups. For the first time, I saw a community that welcomed newcomers with open arms. Absurd collections posted left and right, PEs, and an ungodly amount of money being spent on a daily basis. The transactions, the hustle, the grind, building reputations (good and bad) it was all so fascinating to me. I went through a lot of reflection a while back, about a lot of the topics you touched on in the video. I, like many others, grew up and moved on. I do not miss that era of fashion, but I do miss the community aspect, and I also miss seeing an innocent 10 year old benjamin kickz in a fit battle with another silver spooned rich kid. Good times.
I feel you. If you live in an urban area with Raffles and campouts the Community Feeling was even better. Actually seeing and Talking to people interested in the Same thing was a very nice experience even If in the end it was based on consumerism

bro I was 15 wearing Yeezy 350 black Friday reps with a Zumiez pocket tee and yet that was the last time I felt joy. and yet I was probably still happier the year prior when I was one of those kids who exclusively wore shorts year-round
i’m so happy that you’re really in the swing of content creation rn, the isolated and disconnected feel of today is really hard to fight through for me, but here you are uploading these delicious little morsels of human interaction and i’m here for it 👍🏽
I don't think fashion has changed all that much actually. But I do believe that a sense of lament and nostalgia probably comes from us naturally getting older. In 2016 I even thought "are we gonna like half of this shit in five years?"
I became a big supreme guy in 2015, there was a certain amount of excitement for all the releases of that time, that same excitement doesn’t really exist for me in 2022. But I think the Avangard fits that people put together a really interesting and creative although I feel like I am too old to be wearing screen printed pants or being dripped out head to toe in buckles. Color blocking an outfit based on pollex crocs is how I’m living these days.
I was ahead of the time with the flannels and band tees and now I've looped around to a combination eboy/emo fits when I want to try. I've given up on looking good going to the store, it's a once a month fire fit and I'm good
Ayo big dawg, I'm sure you know Gosha's little brand GR uniforma but it's something worth collecting because it definitely captures more of the soviet/brutalism aspect with his pieces. He hasn't made anything since 2019 but you can always find a pretty decent chunk of his collection on therealreal. It's going to be one of those brands that will not pop up again in any sort of social media radar but they're well crafted and made with love(especially now being super "cheap")
The current fashion meta is reminiscent of post recession 2008-2011 where workwear, vintage and Americana heritage style have come into the forefront as a sign of the global financial situation. The collective subconscious drives us to these kinds of styles as quite frankly, it is insensitive to buy hyped up pieces when the world is going through a financial mess. I remember the rise of visvim, taka hayashi vans, various US labels like 3sixteen also being popular back then. I used to follow blogs like Street Etiquette that try to shine a light on heritage and menswear. The trend is to look cool while trying hard not to look like ur trying.
Yo, you a real one for the Overwatch, I was just thinking the whole street wear is dead thing reminds me of when everyone said Overwatch is a dead game from 2018-2021, Overwatch wasn't the game any more (at first the game was Fortnite and then Apex + Valorant was the game,) but millions of ppl were still playing unlike actual dead games (like battleborn.) Street wear is the same thing, not the thing anymore, but a lot of people still wear it and companies are still making $ off it.
@@sper.1 I hope you bought your pc, phone and internet from small independent brands and use code from an unofficial bootleg version of youtube to upload your comment to big corp youtube. otherwise your statement rings hollow
@@RAAZR- Me telling people to support Independent brands doesnt become a "hollow" statement because i own RUclips app, or have a popular brand phone. And what do you think i specifically meant when i commented under a video made about streetwear man? Your logic is flawed if you think owning a single item from a big brand name does not mean i support smaller brands from a day to day basis. That means everyone on earth is a shill destroying small buisness.

It was already over in 2016 most of y’all were just new so y’all thought it was the gilded era. Most of #us were already complaining about everything being too hyped back then. (How little did we know just how bad it would get)

2016 street west was NOT better than 2013-2014 . To keep it simple for the Kanye Stan’s: Life Of Pablo album and merch was NOT better than Yeezus/HBA era- NOPE, sorry . Nike Kanye WILL ALWAYS BE GREATER THAN ADIDAS
Average 2016 fashion fan (cringe) vs Average 2022 fashion enjoyer (based) If you are still yearning for a return of how fashion was in 2016 or are stuck in that time period, you literally deserve no human rights lmao
Ngl I feel like you don’t even understand fashion or street wear at all. Street wear is 40 + years old. It takes influences from everything it will never die. Fashion is cyclical. The fact is you’re just getting older and you have rose tinted glasses about your youth, it happens to everyone.

i’m rockin supreme and bape like it’s 2016. i always wanted it when i was younger, now i can get it

People say 2016 is the God of years
2016 was fire, we were mixing vetement with that Gosha 🍒
if every year streetwear is claimed to be dead, is it REALLY dead....?

definitely great quality and bafflingly cheap speaking from experience
how does their stuff fit ? i heard it runs small.

Ty for this nostalgia 🥹
did not expect to joeyy here
When your streetwear nostalgia kicks in
People just say shit is dead because they dont like it any more. People say tf2 is dead
It's called "sh*t gets played out" lol -especially logos. That's usually the first thing to get played out, a logo...
Imo, 2015/2016 was peak streetwear, after that it kinda fell off, even Supreme doesnt feel as special as it was once before. Just my opinion
2022 is just who can copy and paste the best battle royale
I havent watched yet, but SUPPORT SMALL INDEPENDENT BRANDS.
support multi million dollar companies, they really need the money
@@mikhailshaw7030 Yeah, true. Nike and Adidas been struggling they really need my 140 dollars for their shoes :(

Nike Kanye WILL ALWAYS BE GREATER THAN ADIDAS
The thumbnail aint even from 2016 its like 2014. Adidas had yall on a chokehold y2s dropped in 2012. Streetwear was dead in 2016.
imo the people who wants 2016 to be back are the people who doesn't have taste in fashion and just want to spend money to look cool
