Weary of the marketing excess of clothing giants for example Gap, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Old Navy; a youth culture bore a new do-it-yourself fashion that incorporated the cap, the t-shirt and vintage style sneakers into a new make of clothing. This 'new brand' should not be mistaken for the hip-hop culture fashion, because even though they exploit baggy clothing and caps, they often stay away from displays of grandeur, jewelry and also the behavior that comes with it. A more similar comparison would benefit when you compare street wear clothing to skater-wear, where brands like Vans, Dickies and Emerica dominate the scene. New Era Popular items that have arisen in the street wear clothing style are printed t-shirts which contain abstract or very expressionistic images on any part from the t-shirt. They are usually asymmetric, making a sharp contrast up to the more tamed t-shirts that are produced in higher quantities by clothing giants such as Tommy Hilfiger. Another addition to popular t-shirt designed contributed through the street-wear culture are clever reinterpretations and mash from old and iconic figures. Popular characters include Rocky, from Rocky and Bullwinkle, Marylyn Monroe and the boom box. Text and phrases also dominate the scene. Phrases are often mashed up with images or any other designs. The greater witty and coy the comment, the more popular and lasting the t-shirt becomes. Kepsar The color palette for street wear culture varies, however the some of the most colors to mix are black, purple, red and brown. Bold colors are preferable to calm and subtle colors. It can interpreted that it is through colors and color combination that street wear clothing demand attention making their mark popular territory. Streetwear The sneaker and snug cap are trademark street wear accessories for that street wear culture. Among the most popular sneakers are Nike, Adidas, and Vans.
