| By Hovi Bryant - 02-18-2013, 09:40 AM - Boxden > Kicks @ BX (Sneakers & Clothing) I'm just going to throw that out there. I want to say it's restricted to young people, but it may just be the culture. Guys out here look like they play on a basketball team or rep a gang. Many people wear clothes with identical colors and call it "matching". I guess that would pass in the 60's-70's.
I think people need to try and find a color wheel or some sh-t. Red kicks + Red Shirt = ![]() BRED Kicks + Dark Green Shirt = ![]() Black/Yellow Kicks + Dark Purple/Blue Shirt = ![]() Anyways, this sh-t is probably common knowledge to some, but I don't know. Campus is a nightmare sometimes. ![]() You can make the following combos using the color wheel as your guide:
![]() Notice RULE #6
Extra:
The above video is probably common knowledge, but I don't know. Shirts with collars are pretty common these days, but for those who wear nothing but crew necks, well... Collar clothes define the outlines of a mans upper body like the shoulders and neck, in which the t-shirts don't, as some can do this and some can't. There's no consistency. | ||||||||||||||||

| if there's a "how to dress" then there should be some sort of guidelines. care to lay out some of these guidelines so this thread can make sense? Judging by the opening post, I don't know if I'm able to dress either. | |

He's not wearing a green shirt, but the pants don't conflict. The rest of the fit is neutral colored. [pic] | ||

Anyways, I updated the OP with a color wheel. There's plenty of apps on iTunes and Google Play with color wheels. I use it when shopping for shirts. | ||

So if you're wearing a red hat and bred kicks, it's a minimalistic style. Nothing wrong with that by any stretch. I think many of us go with the neutral because we haven't experimented with complementing colors. Some I just don't like. Blue and Yellow for example. I don't think it's ugly though.

| [pic][pic] This thread is very necessary. I know exactly what you mean nicca....another skinny leg jean nicca. But nah, I'm glad you said that. I prefer to wear my Bred 4's wit a green sweater or olive/ khaki pants. You gotta offset your clothes to make the shoes "pop" | |

Pretty much. Since you mentioned skinny jeans... Dunno why people want to wear them and basketball shoes. [pic] If you're gonna wear skinny jeans, wear skinny shoes or some !!. [pic] Just regular fit. [pic] | ||

Everyone has their own style. I'm asking for the bare minimum, an area where most of us fail completely at. I don't know if you just skimmed the thread or not, but it sounds like you did. Are most of your outfits comprising of 1 primary color? If so, you might want to consider the OP. If not, carry along. | ||

| young people put too much emphasis on the quality of their clothes instead of the quality of their character. I rather be around someone who wears cheap or unorganized clothing but can have a good time being around then someone who wears good looking outfits but doesn't have much to offer as a friend. | |

Really, I understand what you're saying. Clothes don't make the man. If they do, then he's a !!. That's not the point of this thread. I'm sure someone with some cheap gear can outclass someone with a $400+ outfit. White people almost do the !! almost without trying. [pic] Anyways, take the OP seriously. Tired of seeing niccas look like they're about to ball for the Fort Wayne Mad Antz and !!. | ||

Anyways, #6 is big. You'll be surprised how many people wear tops and hats the same color as their kicks. | ||
