I remember when i used to check Hypebeast and Karmaloop five times a day just to see the newest drops. I was a self-proclaimed hypebeast, copping every new sneaker, tee and denim i could get my hands on. It was an expensive obsession, but it wasn't me. Middle school was the time where i struggled to find my own identity, and i began conforming to the norm, listening to the same music, wearing the Phat Farms(hahaha) the whole nine yards. Even in high school, i had the newest SB's, the Stussy Drops and the 501's. I look back and laugh. That wasn't me. I was hardly ever comfortable in what i wore; the tight jeans being the only exception. Look at me now. I'm hardly ever dressed up anymore. My cut up flannel, Tom Sawyer denim and my busted ass Van's are what i feel comfortable in. Fuck the newest pair of SB's, i could give two shits about my G-Shock watches too. I'm doing me for the first time in my life, far from a trendsetter.
