A Timeline to Streetwear's Beginnings

G'day, mates! If you're as stoked about streetwear as we are down under, you probably spend your time scouring for the freshest threads and dope fits. Streetwear's roots run deep, and it’s a fascinating story of culture, style, and more than a bit of rebellion. Let's take a rad journey through time and check out how streetwear went from surfboards to skateboards and finally, to the epic threads hanging in our wardrobes today.

The Origins: Surf and Skate (1970s-1980s)

Before streetwear was a massive thing, surfers and skateboarders ruled the streets and beaches of California. The '70s and '80s saw surfers like those dudes from Dogtown influencing style with their relaxed, cool-as-ice vibe. Brands started popping up, catering to these beachy rebels who wanted to look slick without losing their edge.

Speaking of looking ultra-slick, if you're vibing with this generation's beachy-feel, you might dig the Short Sleeved T-Shirt in Black With DBDNS Logo Embroidery. Perfect for catching waves or just catching some rays.

Hip Hop Enters the Scene (1980s-1990s)

Next up, the '80s and early '90s brought a whole new level of flavour. Hip hop was emerging not just as a sound, but as a lifestyle. From Adidas tracksuits to those iconic Snapbacks, hip hop artists were trailblazing a new style frontier. This era gave rise to a mix of sportswear and street style that would become quintessential in any streetwear-focused wardrobe.

Keep it fresh today with the Cropped Fleece In Black With Oval Logo Embroidery. It's warm but still ticks the streetwear box with its edgy steeze.

Global Domination (2000s)

Come the 2000s, streetwear was popping off globally! It became a symbol of subcultures, standing for authenticity and community vibes. Brands like Supreme popped up, mixing exclusivity with artful designs, quickly becoming the threads of choice for anyone who was anyone.

Nothing screams standout style while maintaining subtlety quite like the Long Sleeve T-shirt in Heather Grey with Embroidered Logo.

Fast forward to today, streetwear is everywhere, from the streets to high fashion runways. Its influence is undeniable, and the mix of bold prints, artistic expressions, and retro nods keep it fresh and fly.
