Trends aren’t bad in particular. What’s bad is feeling compelled to buy into every trend you see. If you like the trend go for it, but it’s a real problem that you should check yourself on if you’re feeling obligated to participate in every new trend.
Go for it sure, but question it more than just a bit. You don’t want to buy into it & then regret it once it’s not hot anymore. Gotta be really particular about it
Its crazy cause I never feel that way about trends. I feel like the people who feel the need to buy every trend are into fashion for the wrong reason ie impressing people .
@@jamesssdasds sure, this may contribute to it for some people in a small manor, but most people are likely living paycheck to paycheck for different reasons (ie college debt, medical debt, kids, etc etc)
Wow, seriously love all of your content man. I enjoy your detailed breakdowns as well as suggestions of other designers to buy instead of these "trends". Keep making these great videos!
Don’t even have tik tok but feel the effects. Im just sick of the people that hate on a trend when its over - so you where stupid enough to spend some money on a piece that you only liked because it was hot ? 😂 Bro maybe I like my pair of Jordan 1s even if they are so called „dead“
And the worst thing is that the afterpay services (or pay by 4 services) enables people to take out mini-loans to impulse buy these trendy expensive clothing items. I don't know why our governments haven't cracked down on that shit...
As a victim of this, the government shouldn’t have to interfere on what a person, who willingly knows they don’t have money to spend, to take a loan. This is easily modern natural selection, and those like me, that realize the bs will just not do the same mistake again and teach our kids to not do those mistakes.
As soon as it becomes popular on TikTok, its dead. First it was hipsters, then hype beasts, now TikTok core. Its all the same. I think just by watching peers that shift styles every trend cycle, you kind of start to realize how stupid and meaningless it all is.
It was definitely a wild sight seeing the droves of people slowly get more and more interested in fashion and shoes during the pandemic. I've been into fashion for as long as I can remember, as I used to dress so bad I would look at outfit inspo pics for hours and watch YT vids on how to find a basic style in 2017. One of the main reasons that TikTok became the hub for fashion and trends is because people had way more time on their hands, but the most important part that many people don't really think about is how TikTok made fashion a lot more consumable and easy to process. Before, the only fashion content you could find were 15-min videos discussing a specific niece style or a super in depth tutorial on how to get into a certain style. TikTok gave the average person scrolling an easy way to get into the world of fashion, and many who found their love for it on TikTok, continue to find their inspiration on TikTok. I won't lie about not hating on TikTok and the fashion its popularized, overall it's a good thing. The more people into fashion, the better. But I think way too many people forget how long it takes to develop a personal style, it includes buying hundreds of articles of clothing, trying things that you think will work or look good on you. You do this over and over for years until you can finally start settling into a lane of fashion that you can call your own. Way too many people focus on the trends and if they're "dead" or not, that they can forget to take the time and see if they like the trend. Trend or not, if you like to wear something, wear it. And lots of people need to think of that over worrying about wearing something that's considered "dead" by the wider TikTok fashion community. Always love seeing your thoughts on fashion, they always make me think deeper into the hobby. Much love
hey bro i used to watch your videos back in 2022 to learn more about fashion and style, i have even commented on a few. i just wanna say thank you for delivering such quality videos. aside from that, are you ever gonna upload those “how to style” videos or those “essentials, how to dress up in different seasons” videos? i lowkey miss em and they helped a ton. keep up the good work
Thanks for continuing to support the channel, means a lot! I’d include those ideas within a video, but probably not base an entire video on those topics. I’m working on a summer pickups kinda video that should hopefully bring those old vibes back
it sucks because these trends were once really based on real life culture and now things like tik tok take commodifying culture to an extreme. And in the end trends don't last as long as they did and they seem vacant and void of real cultural experience.
Its ok to try to follow up with trends. Eventually you will get tired of it, and in te path you will find your own style, among all the ones you tried, then it'll become your uniform for as long as youre ok with it, and you can always catch up with trends in the future, at the end of the day, we dress up for ourselves.
I look at it is before people used to get their style from music, artists, Athletes. You felt the expression resonate with you and genuinely felt a connection. TikTok just pumps and dumps anything just for algorithm purposes or clicks.
I deleted tik tok some months back and I just recently bought some sambas cuz I wanted new white adidas. If you like something and want them get them. So tired of these “rules” that don’t actually exist. Good video.
So personally I don't think trends are bad but what can be bad about them is a constant sense of consuming them. This can be from tik tok or Instagram, or RUclips. But what I would give my personal advice is buying a trend isn't a bad thing but you should find other inspiration from other sources. Sometimes I find it from random people on the street, Instagram, RUclips, or celbs or old styles from either 1990s, 1980s or 1970s, or early 2000s and or finding pieces that I find cool. Hype or not trendy or not, most my personal items have been thrifted as you most of the item find a one of one piece and tend to either be trendy or just random.
Totally Agree! I’ve been working security for concerts/shows lately and get to see a lot of cool outfit inspiration at work. Especially with seeing a wide range of shows from metal concerts to comic cons
i really like the stussy 8 ball jacket or what is that i wanted it before tik tok trend or whateva but if i go outside with it some will call me lame or smth, tik tok really ruins products tbh
Biggest thing I’ve learned since trying to get on the fashion train is the best fashioned people are the ones that never cared. So what if you wear sambas or Pandas or 4s or even Loafers and the like, that is you bread and butter, enjoy it. Once you try to peer pressure someone into wearing a trend or attack someone for wearing a trend, you two are equally terrible. Just… Live.
Thank god I don’t use tiktok. I buy clothes that build upon my personal foundation with the other pieces that I love and already have. I just don’t get these trendy behaviors because they don’t consider the connection and versatility the clothes you pick can have for each other.
4:26 Timelessness. I think you fell for it. Would you not agree that "timeless", "durable", and the likes are all very desirable attributes? So desirable, in fact, that not only any private person would like to own clothes who pass for it - but even so much that products are marketed with these terms to enhance their desirability. And at this point, where we have moved from "this item is timeless, therefore it's valuable" towards an association between the terms that has allowed marketers and influencers to turn the tables on us and exploit "this item needs more value, so we'll label it "timeless" ", I think you've only set up many fashion enthusiasts to step into the same trap. --- I would also want to clarify that true "timelessness" DOES exist. Same as true "elevated basics" do, and so on and so forth and they've all been the big thing at one point - and never only to spite trend culture/fast fashion/etc., but also to profit from the reputation that these concepts have built up. What are your thoughs on this view?
Sorry for the late response, but you’re right! I definitely could’ve gone into this a bit more and maybe even will for a future video. I’ve recently seen more products marketed as timeless or trend proof. When I see something marketed this way, I usually like to look into the history to see if it’s true, but clearly not everyone will care to do the same.
I think the specific problem with TikTok and underrated brands/pieces is that the app can bring mass attention to something quickly. For the new people who find it they don’t have the same appreciation for the brands/items
If you like them, go for it! They look good with pants/shorts, a bunch of different styles, and you could probably even get them for a really affordable price if used
where do yall buy your clothes. was a rly big thrift guy until it became more commoditized and it's become difficult to find anything good. ik about grailed about it sucks cos i dont have a proper style and i perfer wearing the stuff before i buy it so i just end up midnelssly scrolling
I don't want to be that guy but pandas are regular dunks and are not loved by skaters, skaters use sb dunks mainly, just pointing that out :) (I hate panda dunks)

@@fernandostudebaker5861 that’s what I’m sayin
The rates these trends are coming and going is crazy… no wonder all the young generation and adults are in debt and living paycheck to paycheck lol
For me it’s more due to spending all my money on shots and drinks once I’m already drunk lol.
Take a shot every time I say TikTok or Trends challenge
Yeah man people are not living paycheck to paycheck because of fucking stupid tik tok trends
Facts 😂 and then they blame everything why they’re broke 😂
@@jamesssdasds sure, this may contribute to it for some people in a small manor, but most people are likely living paycheck to paycheck for different reasons (ie college debt, medical debt, kids, etc etc)
I don’t give in to most of these trends. When it comes to clothing, I like easy and “safe” styles that will never not look good
glad i sold the 8ball fleece during the hype for $700 🙇
Good timing bro😂I was surprised to see how much prices have dropped
Good you did bruh I seen someone selling for £70 yesterday 😂

Definitely, fashionlover4’s video on TikTok covers this idea well
I uninstalled tiktok so it didn’t made me do shit except watch your vids
A smart man👌
i am glad we have trends they show people what they could buy but the overexacuration is insanely bad
I deleted tik tok some months back and I just recently bought some sambas cuz I wanted new white adidas. If you like something and want them get them. So tired of these “rules” that don’t actually exist. Good video.
Definitely, thanks for the support and enjoy the sambas!
I just hate that sambas are considered a “trend” because they are one of my favorite shoes and I will continue to wear them when the trend has died
Keep wearing what you like!

Use to wear them joins in highschool 2018 now seeing the prices is crazy these days
@@SantoVacio yeah i got mine for like 45 last year before all the hype really started

Been working a lot, but I’m gonna grind this summer! Got a few video ideas I’m hyped on
man i really liked the knu school vans because of there laces not there hype
Me too! Chunky laces look so good in certain shoes/footwear. Just through some into my boots
i really like the stussy 8 ball jacket or what is that i wanted it before tik tok trend or whateva but if i go outside with it some will call me lame or smth, tik tok really ruins products tbh
I doubt it, it’s only online that people care about that stuff

Yeah that’s true, the rise in buying the latest trends has a lot to do about seeking validation rather than building versatility within a wardrobe
Alright i need to know whats up with the racing spikes in the back. (I race as well) but ive never seen those during a race.
I mostly ran the 800m or mile in high school! Nike victory’s were my go to spikes
I knows the tik tol trends get picked up and dropped asap
Adidas Samba was popular before tik tok because of Casuals football culture. :)
