youdidthtIts 100% a real thing. The youth must always differentiate themselves from older generations and the easiest way is to dig from the past. This s*** was always destined to come back. With that said mall core or whatever has never never been it to me.
Hollister,American Eagle and Aeropostale(if that brand is still around)was never really that cool back in the day tho,it was just acceptable. So if it comes back,it'll have to be cool with school kids,cause it was never acceptable for a grown man(or woman)to rock those brands.
Really(at least at my school back then)if you came BBC/Bape/Evisu down or rocking Trues(back when they were like,$400 a pair)you were just making yourself a target. Then,if you came with some obvious JC Penny/Sears type s***,you were making yourself a target for bullying. So most kids just wore Hollister/Aeropostale because,thats what was available/accessible to them and there parents at the time.
Both brands helped kids assimilate at school,basically a non-official uniform. Long story short,GROWN MEN SHOULDN'T BE WEARING MIDDLE OF THE MALL GEAR!

Whered you grow up? I’m sure thats the case for some areas but in chicago those 3 brands were considered cool for a while grown or not. Like it was cool when I was in high school and then to see chief keef wearing the s*** when he was coning up was like damn the youth still f***s with this s*** in 2011 wtf.

It sounds dumb on the surface level but its the easiest thing to do rather than completly inventing some whole new s*** off rip as a teen. It eventually happens over time but the base style is always rooted from the past and then theyll morph it by removing what they don’t fw and adding s*** in and eventually it becomes its own thing. And with all these diff subcultures being blended by gen z I expect that 2030 style will be a completely “new” thing.

Dirty south(and not ATL,more like Tennessee-Alabama)if dudes were wearing Tru/Evisus,they were most likely fake,and you knew exactly where they got it from. The very few dudes actually rocking real gear were dope peddlers,everyone else,NPC Hollister,American Eagle andAeropostale,maybe a lil A&F here and there.
Jul 23, 2023·1 replygnarlynastyI will truly believe in this "fashion goes in cycles" saying if Hollister and American Eagle makes a real comeback
I never wore that s*** in Middle-High School,even at the peak of its popularity.So not long till swag era comes back around

Yea same here like unless you was a real fly guy your evisus was fake and mainly cause you just didnt know not intentionally. Same with bape too all just a lack of knowledge.

Drake swag isn't about being the influence-to-buy or a fashion icon in the moment.

I guess when I say those brands were never just "cool",I mean that,I never really seen grown men wear that s*** back then lol. Older dudes were rocking alot of Polo and Trues back in the late 2000s,before the designer craze became real. Having the crazy color Levis were a thing in the streets too.
Alot of kids around my way rocked Aero,most kids preferred Hollister tho. Like I said,I never wore it,was really into streetwear/fashion myself at the time,but couldn't afford it as a kid. I was strictly Levis 511 and sports hoodies/random graphic tees,some from Wal-Mart,some from random places in the Mall but I had a few Stussy and Diamond Supply tees.
