Just be yourself and your style will never fade. Following trends will leave you feeling empty as well as your pockets. When I quit following trends and started doing my own thing was when I started feeling alive and grounded.
@@justinb.8977 haha right. Bro, all I wear now is nice, fitted Levi 511 stretchy jeans with a plain, solid color t shirt paired with some nice sneakers and a Rolex.
I dont wear them but slim fitted jeans are actually the highest selling jeans of all the cuts, still to this day. Vans here in Australia are worn a lot, never fell off. Influencers are not the true representation of what’s actually fashionable in society. Social media is essentially a 24 hour news cycle and they’re just trying to fill the time with micro trends for the sake of content.
Facts. For example influencers make New Balances seem more popular than they actually are. There’s a reason why sneaker resale stores carry almost no NBs lol
what people dont realize about skinny jeans is they may have only been a trend in the mainstream , but they will eternally be a staple in punk/rock/metal/emo/goth/alternative looks and culture which the mainstream was heavily biting off in very poser ways for a long time. these genres are uncaring about trends and what is deemed cool or uncool.
That’s a really good point that could’ve been added to the video! It seems like a lot of trends becoming popular for the mainstream in a costume/poser kind of way. People are able to easily ditch the clothing once the hype of the trend dies down
Maybe it’s bc I live here in SoCal, but Vans here have never fallen off. That goes for both the mall Vans and the nicer Vans Vault collabs. It’s like a staple brand, doesn’t matter wether you’re “fashiony” or a normie. Everyone here wears Vans 💀
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Definitely. I know someone is either super into Vans or shops only at nicer boutiques when they’re wearing the Vault OG version of like any classic Vans lol.
the swag era still has some after effects rippling right now. i work in a store that isn’t a fashion store by any means but carrie’s some streetwear, and while we don’t carry vans or obey anymore like we used to, those huf weed socks are still very much big sellers, and i think the trend of bigger silhouettes in shoes is closer to osiris and dc than we’d like to admit. take a set of 550s, bulk them up and put them in a black and neon green colorway and that’s a pair of dc’s. baseball hats making a comeback too, that’s just a step away from snapbacks. the swag era probably won’t look the same but the foundations are very close
I think everyone is a little too confident with the "swag era is beneath us and will not return" thing. A lot of those outfits can and will be brought back to light, just in an updated way. swap out the chicago bulls crewneck for a university crewneck, relax the fit of the jeans a bit, go for a simple AF1 instead of jordans, and replace the beats with airpod max and voila. maybe we aren't wearing snapbacks, logo belts, or big jewelry as much anymore but I wouldn't be surprised if those slowly creep back in as well. all it takes is one hyped item to catch on and boom.
I didn’t think of that when making the video, but it makes sense. If Y2K has come back super strong then there’s a possibility this look returns too with a modern twist.
Fun lil story from the swag era: When I was like 13 my mom gave me somewhere around $200 to go to some kid at my schools paintball birthday party, I took the money and spent it all on Diamond tees at Zumiez and then just hungout and watched them play paintball in a Diamond tee 😂
Yeah TikTok does not dictate fashion, unless you wanna look identical to every other teenager. The vans stores in California are always pack with people copying shoes left and right not everyone can afford to drop $200 on a hype shoe. And baggy clothes is so uncomfortable when it rains trust me.
I remember going through elementary and middle school during the swag and nike basketball era. KDs, Lebrons, Diamond Supply, Pink Dolphin were just seen everywhere lol
Are there any items during that time that you would still like to wear? I think it’d be cool to have more Nike basketball shoes return from that time period
@@Turk_2023 I like the 2010-2013ish range of Nike Basketball, but agree the older stuff is king. The classic pairs still hold value in fashion where the new stuff is strictly performance
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon I hate the material modern Nike shoes are made out of, its like this plastic rubbery crap thats hard to clean, and it looks terrible after a couple wears. There is a reason Air Max 90-97 still sell so well. Lighter does not mean better.
I work in retail so I get to experience a lot of the trends from the younger workers. Vans have settled back down to where they were. Very popular but the random girls who never wore them before the hype have slid into Stan smiths now lol. The grown up trend makes sense bc it’s a pendulum, we went from ridiculously casual hoodies and sweats 24/7 to a classier look. Then it’ll get wacky again, then casual, back to classier, and continue to repeat. Great video man
I never liked skinny jeans, but I used to wear baggy jeans in middle school and was bullied for it. It’s crazy how something that was once hated my everyone becomes everyday clothing for most
@@ThunderHOWL16 FR people were on my head when I wore baggy cargos, so I stopped wearing them. When everyone started wearing them again I bought the same kind I had before and everyone was saying they liked my pants 🤦🏾♂️
i definitely started wearing supreme heavy in 2019-2020. i just liked the brand and how they literally make almost everything . i go for the more subtle designs tho
That’s what I usually look for as well from Supreme. With the brand being less hyped, now is a great time to find some better deals. Recently picked up the reversible bandana fleece and love it🔥
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon unfortunately not really, it’s like (as far as the hood) We’ve been stuck for the past 6 years Nike tech suits, same style Moncler Tight jeans , Jordan’s 🤷🏿typical hood shit😂
I've always wore what I wanted and people always give me compliments! Most the people I know that try and follow every trend really have no identity and are very insecure and measure worth by level of material thing's they and other's have.
I'll never stop buying and wearing the checkerboard slipon vans idc idc idc. Them thangs go with everything. I'm on year 7 of wearing them to absolute death and it's only my second pair. Fun video!
Where I live (seattle) gorpcore has been around forever and it used to just be called “dressing for the weather.” Didn’t used to be only arcteryx tho, people wear whatever is warm and waterproof.
I gave up on following trends not too long ago. Felt horrible getting a bunch of dope clothing and sneakers, just for it to slowly but surely fall out of style. I decided to just wear what I want and stay true to my roots: A mix of the Nike Basketball era that got me into sneakers, and some minimal clothing. Even if Nike Basketball is never gonna make a comeback, good for me. I’ll take the Lebrons sitting on the shelves
Sounds like it’s working out for you👌I’m excited that Kobe 8s are going to return. I’d like to see Lebron 10/11s get rereleased as well. Keep doing you!
The only thing i say that is trendy is my slim and skinny fit distressed jeans from sites like mmnla, kndk and hyper denim. Other than that i still dress between skater, metal, hipster, sneakerhead, pro wrestling fan looks. Sometimes ill have a business casual look to seem more classy but im never in one full style. Would love a grunge and 80s metalhead look to comeback as well as some peaky blinders type stuff whether the mustaches only and fades for haircuts look. Lol
Love me some obscure 2010s LeBrons. Got 2 pairs of LeBron 12 EXTs they are fire Rn I am trying to get my hands on some Command Forces. Such a violent shoe
I still wear all my 187Hudda, Gypsy And Thieves, ConArt, Tribal, Fresh Jive, Ben Davis, JNCO, DGK, CROOKS & CASTLES brands all day and everyone always gives me compliments on the gear!
Basketball shoes won’t fall off anytime soon. Especially since basketball shoes aren’t limited to players anymore. Like the Travis Scott being one of the most desired basketball shoes right now.
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon yeah I mean I still wear flannels n band tees but not as frequent as I used to. I combined grunge style with streetwear, always wearing sneakers with boots and wallet chains with chains
Well everyone now is wearing my fashion from 2015 so I’m not really able to look back when you got flannels, cargos, vintage tees, and tracksuits everywhere 🤣🤣🤣
Gorpcore is so funny to me. Since I live in the north of the UK it’s normally pretty rainy up here so you would typically see someone in an arcteryx windbreaker or any sort of water repellent jacket and the salamons, or just any rugged trainer, usually the 95s up here. Seeing this become “trendy” is pretty funny to see though, even I have some “gorpcore” outfits although it’s not because of the trend, it’s because it rains a lot 💀
That’s interesting, since it’s become popular to dress like other people’s traditional style it makes sense that a practical look like gorpcore would become so popular
Lesson learned never follow hype. I’ve been wearing 90’s everything about 5 years now, i rotate hiphop, grunge, and basic 90’s fit and never felt falling off.
i wore my white vans almost every day for 4 years and only stopped wearing them when they fell apart, only reason why i don’t wear vans right now is cuz i’m too lazy to go to the mall
Being from Orange County I been wearing vans since elementary I'm 27 and I will continue to wear old skools until the day I die 😅 and that goes for Af1 I been wearing them since I can remember and I will continue to
This is why I hate fashion trends. Baggy pants/cargo pants were being bullied a few years ago and now they are in style while skinny jeans being out. And for God damn sure skinny jeans and fit cut will make a return and people will suddenly wear them again. Just wear whatever the fck you like. Right now I enjoy both straight cut and slim-skinny jeans and they both still look good on certain outfits.
I don’t think ppl understand how fashion icons are made but ima drop a gem for those who don’t. Being yourself means u don’t follow trends because u are the trend. Being yourself will make u stand out 98% of the time. Being yourself means u will wear whatever u want because it’s your unique style. If it’s dope ppl will follow no matter what’s in style. So nothin ever goes out of style unless u start biting someone else’s steez. Nobody likes biters.
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Yes indeed. In other words I wear what I like and ppl end up liking it cuz it’s authentic nd not what the next person is wearing. Woman have always been attracted to the way I dress. U have to know how to style yourself for any occasion. Just be original. It speaks volumes.
I see vans all the time. Incredibly common. I live in Maryland, United States for context. And slim pants are very common as well. I like my pants to have a tailored fit. Not skin tight and definitely not baggy.
That’s interesting, I over exaggerated a bit by saying I don’t see them at all. Definitely not as common as they were in Maine though. Thanks for watching and commenting John!
That’s interesting, do you remember specific bootleg items that you enjoyed? I agree, it’s clear that a lot of these recent bootleg companies are exploiting the current trends/culture
Skating is more popular than ever, so Vans aren't going anywhere. I do think the spotlight is more on clogs, mules, loafers, chunky boots etc than sneakers at the moment.
Same here! I fell in love with Kobe’s, but couldn’t afford them till I somehow found a pair at the outlet in 6th grade. Watching channels like Kick Genius, Scoop 208, and Wear Testers all fueled my love of sneakers
Im 31 i will forever wear vans, I remember first wearing vans in 06, fuck the trends the checkered slip ons and low old skools are classics they will make a comeback but until then im still wearing my vans.
Trends come and go. There’s things that will always be in style with me and others that it was great. Brands lik ALD, Stussy and OW (simplistic Stuff will remain dope IMHO.
I like capitalizing on people selling off the old stuff and getting it for half retail price. That's how I get pretty much everything. See something I like, wait a year until everyone hates it again, buy for next to nothing
I like supreme and off white but only certain bogos and off white hoodie but I feel like it’s how you wear it coz everybody ruins everything coz anybody can make anything look basic
just wear a really baggy black cargo or black jean, a stussy, carhartt t-shirt or fleece if its winter, some dunks, jordan 1's, maybe 4's or 550's but a unique clean colorway, and if you have a bigger budget, ramones or maybe moon boots, again baggy one colour pants, and alyx or balenciaga hoodie, but thats kind of extreme but still, it's amazing. In that way u'll be in fashion and having drip for a long time
I just do me regardless of what the hype is. Now I occasionally splurge on some unique sneakers (recently NB 9060 Age of Discovery), or certain articles of clothing, but nothing really designer like. Simply just do what you like and be confident while being comfortable in your own skin, and you’ll do just fine.
I try to keep all my shoes in rotation and wear something different each day. Of course some shoes end up getting worn more than others but I try to never wear the same kicks 2 days in a row.
Stussy Vans and straights will never go anywhere when you're in a major coastal city. Never got too crazy with sneakers or tops in general, good durable hoodies, splurge on a winter jacket then get a value one. No more than 2 fall/spring jackets, all purpose boots and you're good. My guilty pleasures being 900 newbies and judge me all you want, i got into Carhartt wip pre panny like 2018 lol
I'm lowkey really happy Supreme fell out of popularity cause I'm a fan of their clothes and being able to walk into stores and see shirts, pants, sweaters etc for 70 bucks or less feels great

I don’t think ppl understand how fashion icons are made but ima drop a gem for those who don’t. Being yourself means u don’t follow trends because u are the trend. Being yourself will make u stand out 98% of the time. Being yourself means u will wear whatever u want because it’s your unique style. If it’s dope ppl will follow no matter what’s in style. So nothin ever goes out of style unless u start biting someone else’s steez. Nobody likes biters.
Have you always followed this with your own style?
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Yes indeed. In other words I wear what I like and ppl end up liking it cuz it’s authentic nd not what the next person is wearing. Woman have always been attracted to the way I dress. U have to know how to style yourself for any occasion. Just be original. It speaks volumes.
Also no matter what, never flex. Just exist. People will follow you
Where what you want. Don’t listen to content creators. Be yourself!!
Something's changed especially in fashion trends during the pandemic era
I see vans all the time. Incredibly common. I live in Maryland, United States for context. And slim pants are very common as well. I like my pants to have a tailored fit. Not skin tight and definitely not baggy.
That’s interesting, I over exaggerated a bit by saying I don’t see them at all. Definitely not as common as they were in Maine though. Thanks for watching and commenting John!
bootleg fashion is my fav cause growing up it’s what we had hate to see it get gentrified tho
That’s interesting, do you remember specific bootleg items that you enjoyed? I agree, it’s clear that a lot of these recent bootleg companies are exploiting the current trends/culture
Yes I remember casually wearing all my basketball shoes😅
Damn high rollers caught a stray 😭
I’m never leaving Nike basketball behind 😭
Galaxy Foams returning👀🤯
Skating is more popular than ever, so Vans aren't going anywhere.
I do think the spotlight is more on clogs, mules, loafers, chunky boots etc than sneakers at the moment.
That’s actually partly what my next video is about!
Wear what you feel comfortable and good in 👍
Key to being comfortable and happy!
I personally still dig the supreme logo & the cargo pants but not in crazy colors hehe
Some of the color combinations were super loud😂I actually started wearing a black/grey/white pair again after making this videos
the nike basketball era is where it all started for me. 👌🏽
Same here! I fell in love with Kobe’s, but couldn’t afford them till I somehow found a pair at the outlet in 6th grade. Watching channels like Kick Genius, Scoop 208, and Wear Testers all fueled my love of sneakers
Patagonia, Thrifted Jeans, and yeezys are my go to
This man's Channel Fell Off! Be yourself and you'll be good!
Lol
Im 31 i will forever wear vans, I remember first wearing vans in 06, fuck the trends the checkered slip ons and low old skools are classics they will make a comeback but until then im still wearing my vans.
That’s great👌wore my checkered slip ons yesterday
Trends come and go. There’s things that will always be in style with me and others that it was great. Brands lik ALD, Stussy and OW (simplistic Stuff will remain dope IMHO.
I loved the nike basketball trend, also baggy pants >>>>>>>
Definitely a really fun time to be a sneaker head back then. Baggy is so much more comfortable lol
My style now is slim jeans boots and designer
What boots do you like?
the swag movement NEEEDS to comeback. i can wear a bulls snap better than anyone
I like that confidence 👀
Dont come for nike/jordan basketball sneakers i still where them proudly with my cargos & slim fitted jeans💪🏾🔥
Do you have any favorite models?
The only trend that won't die is pretending you skateboard when you just wanna look like it
I’ve been known to mall grab around my city
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon yea see?
I like capitalizing on people selling off the old stuff and getting it for half retail price. That's how I get pretty much everything. See something I like, wait a year until everyone hates it again, buy for next to nothing
Agreed! I got a bunch of Supreme for great prices on eBay/grailed these past couple years
You forgot the big shirt era 😂
True, might have to make a part 2
Nah Swag Era never left 🤷🏿♂️
I think the brands have evolved a bit, but there are similarities in modern styles
From Cali and Vans are forever 🔥
I agree with the most! Well done! 👏👏👏
Thanks for watching!
I like supreme and off white but only certain bogos and off white hoodie but I feel like it’s how you wear it coz everybody ruins everything coz anybody can make anything look basic
Swag era still the flyest era if you lived thru it
Would you like to see this look come back?
I miss foamposites DC was crazy ova dem jonts
I saw a recent comment saying DC is still wearing foams and New Balances hard. I think foams definitely can come back in style
just wear a really baggy black cargo or black jean, a stussy, carhartt t-shirt or fleece if its winter, some dunks, jordan 1's, maybe 4's or 550's but a unique clean colorway, and if you have a bigger budget, ramones or maybe moon boots, again baggy one colour pants, and alyx or balenciaga hoodie, but thats kind of extreme but still, it's amazing. In that way u'll be in fashion and having drip for a long time
Sounds like you know exactly what you like👌
I just do me regardless of what the hype is. Now I occasionally splurge on some unique sneakers (recently NB 9060 Age of Discovery), or certain articles of clothing, but nothing really designer like. Simply just do what you like and be confident while being comfortable in your own skin, and you’ll do just fine.
👌👌
Being trendy is cool but being you is best. Be your own style and don't worry about the trends.
Well said, thanks for the comment 👌
I mess with the bootleg sneakers heavy
✔️Foams ain’t goin nowhere 😂
Do you see people still wearing them? I’m curious what pairs
Can't wait till da aj 1s cool off. Sick of em
The only bootleg sneaker that's trending rn are the vicinity akimbo lows
I’ve seen those a few times on ig. Do you have a pair?
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon nah but i want a pair
If you don't see old skools you're just not paying attention.
That’s probably a part of it too. The weather in Maine only really lets you wear Vans in the Spring/Summer so that also probably plays a role
I'm wearing a sweater and and sweatpants and can hardly care.
Comfort is key👌
my daily driver is the triple black foamposite
I try to keep all my shoes in rotation and wear something different each day. Of course some shoes end up getting worn more than others but I try to never wear the same kicks 2 days in a row.
@@PresidentCoochieGrabber same 💯they are my go to black shoe though
@@lardlow I respect it buddy. Its good to choose a indestructible shoe like that for every day wear.
Stussy Vans and straights will never go anywhere when you're in a major coastal city. Never got too crazy with sneakers or tops in general, good durable hoodies, splurge on a winter jacket then get a value one. No more than 2 fall/spring jackets, all purpose boots and you're good. My guilty pleasures being 900 newbies and judge me all you want, i got into Carhartt wip pre panny like 2018 lol
Gorpcore will always be relevant for me because there is no way in hell I'm not wearing a $3000 collection of hard shells and fleece
We need a collection video👀
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon It's just one Arcteryx jacket and fleece
I'm lowkey really happy Supreme fell out of popularity cause I'm a fan of their clothes and being able to walk into stores and see shirts, pants, sweaters etc for 70 bucks or less feels great
I agree, I’ve been enjoying being able to find old pieces I wanted that are now for sale on eBay/grailed. Picked up a leopard knit vest last week
@@WhatsTheHype.Landon ooooo how lucky
I love "vintage" off whites and wears them to this day - best designs
Swag is gonna have that so cringy it’s good type of thing where ppl will wear it ironically at first but it will then be legitimately popular
Yes, I think that’s a good possibility of how it’d take off again. Thanks for watching Jesse
