In recent years Jerry Lorenzo - main designer of Fear of God brand - have made big changes in streetwear. He started a lot of trends which inspires other popular brands. He also made collaboration with Vans which succeed very well in 2017. In 2018, Jerry won't take a break. Following his collaborative work with Vans, Jerry Lorenzo has confirmed that a project with Nike is next on the agenda for Fear of God. Rumors of a Nike x Fear of God partnership have been doing the rounds for a while, with Lorenzo previously coy on the matter. Posting on Instagram, the designer replied to a follower who asked if the recent Vans drop was restocking, writing: “no more Vans. swoosh for ’18.” Who is into streetwear that knows, that Jerry is professional. His work make progress in what people wear in every project of FOG. But will he collaborate better with Nike than Virgil Abloh (Off-White designer) did? Goal is difficult to achieve but I hope it can be. What we know for sure now is th...

1) Virgil Abloh x Nike “The Ten” Debuts at OFF-CAMPUS  The collection, dubbed “THE TEN,” was shown through a special activation called “Nike OFF-CAMPUS,” and features 10 Abloh-remixed Nike icons, most notably the Air Jordan 1. 2) #BREAKING2 and the Nike Zoom VaporFly Elite  While consumers will likely never have a shot at the ultra-hardcore Zoom VaporFly Elite worn by Kipchoge and his teammates, the slightly-detuned Nike Zoom VaporFly 4%, Nike’s fastest available marathon shoe, is a worthy runner up. 3) adidas Overtakes Jordan as No.2 in U.S. Sneaker Sales  The accelerating adidas resurgence has made headlines for a while, but this September, the Three Stripes officially jumped over Jumpman. In the US market, at least.  4) Rick Owens and adidas Call It Quits Unfortunately, not everything out of Herzogenaurach contained such cheerful news. As of this August, the adidas x Rick Owens collaborative collection will cease production, citing th...

Vetements sneaker Vetements is associated with an unconventional approach to fashion. They're making clothing for people who is not scared of what others will say. That type of clothing is for rich people. They want original stuff which will indicate the direction in trends. T hese are the features that make this brand stand out, but this time - in my opinion - things have changed.   First teased earlier this summer, Vetements has just officially revealed its latest sneaker silhouette. The Demna Gvasalia-helmed label took to Instagram to share an alternative look at the new creps – a white sneaker that looks eerily similar to adidas’ iconic Stan Smith tennis shoe. The white sneakers are filled with captions "VETEMENTS", with total red branding around the heel counter. Adidas Stan Smith Adidas x Raf Simons Stan Smith In my opinion, copying whole idea from Adidas and changing a few aspects isn't something that expensive brand - Vetements -...

In November fifteenth 2017 died Gustav Elijah Åhr known under the pseudonym Lil Peep. Reason was overdose of drug - Xanax. He was 21 years old. He was very famous singer especially in young society. Except being revolutionary musician he's been a living icon of rebellious style of dress. He broke a lot of rules in streetwear. It was enough to look at him to see how brave he was in doing that! Just for his approach to fashion I value him most . In article from Highsnobiety I've read that charity store with clothes created with though of him is opening in Los Angeles. Organized to benefit Peep’s mother, Liza Womack, the ‘Rest in Peep’ pop-up will also be donating proceeds from the merch sales towards the MusiCares Foundation. In that action will also help one of Lil Peep's tatoo artists. He will be present at enitre event. In my opinion, that event is very good for fans of Lil Peep. For this moment we only have view on two hoodies in collection but it will be mo...

Everybody wants to have something that is distinctive - and that's good! Unfortunately , sometimes we hit "creativity locks" - even the most originative people struggles with that problem. With help comes article from Highsnobiety about "5 quotes to improve your creativity". All of them were said by thebest designers of clothing appreciated by streetwear environment.   “Irony is a tool for modern creativity” ~Virgil Abloch Main Off White designer - Virgil Abloh - is saying that the irony is an entry point for modern culture. It's all about breaking limits in projects such as art or fashion. The point is not taking too serious our work.   “The idea of ‘creativity is the enemy’ is to do the work that is set out before you and not to improvise unless it’s absolutely necessary.” ~ Tom Sachs Tom Sachs - contemporary artist - states that creativity should be used in current projects. He’s criticising the constant looking for innovation. We have to creat...

If anyone would ask me for the most famous, the most expensive and the best quality brand in streetwear, I wouldn't be able to tell one and only winner, but one thing is for sure - Gucci is on top 3 of the best clothing producers. I haven't been follow which brand is on the top on streetwear since the day I've read an article from highsnobiety.com. It was about Balenciaga taking over position of top lists in "streetwear world". In ranking from The Lyst Index, we know that Gucci ranked first, followed by Yeezy as second and Balenciaga on the third place. I have to admit that it was ranks for second quarter of 2017. In the third quarter of 2017 , Balenciaga started to raise up and was ranked first. Gucci fell to third place and on third - Off White. You may ask: "what is the reason of growing popularity of Balenciaga?". Answer isn't clear. In my opinion that brand started to make clothing deviating from current stand...

Some time ago I have read an article about "crew" from New York who merged brand Polo Raph Lauren and hip hop culture on the World. That article is mostly interview with Thristin - one of the first members of the group. First thing's first, the name of the group is Lo Life. It comes from last syllabe of word "Polo". It is not about low or something like that! When you "lived in Lo" it meant you are enthusiast of brand Polo Raph Lauren. In 80s and early 90s hip hop clothing was mostly about sport brands such as Nike, Adidas, Champion. Polo is very exclusive brand and very expensive but in ghettos and settlements black people haven't earn that much to easily buy these pieces. What was the solution was shoplifting expeditions to Saks and Bloomingdale’s. "Polo became our religion." People from Lo were rocking that clothing in clubs, on the street. Tuey were getting photographed by people outside the culture for their incredible looks. Lo...
