What’s your style? The answer may be hiding in what you love. If you have an appreciation for skateboard and surf culture, then allow it to influence the way you dress. Bonus? You’ll be right on trend with the reemergence of ‘90s style. Check out Macy’s selection of men’s skateboard- and surf-inspired clothing.
What do skateboarders wear?
• In the literal sense, skateboarders typically wear clothing that doubles as a protective layer. Thick fabric can help minimize possible scrapes and bruises. Twill is a thick, classic fabric that can work well. Pants or shorts can be tight or relaxed. It truly boils down to personal preference.
• For the skater style, incorporate laid-back pieces into your wardrobe. It’s much more modern than wearing the skater style from head to toe. Go with graphic hoodies or graphic tees infused with playful colors. Ripped jeans, cargo shorts and board shorts are other skateboard-inspired staples.
How can I wear surf clothing? For catching waves, pick surf clothing designed to be worn in the water. Rash guards and swim boardshort are ideal. As a trend, modern surf-inspired clothing can be worn beyond the beach. Pick up shirts, pants and shorts in tropical prints or neutrals and lightweight fabrics.
Don’t forget the shoes! Sneakers are a great choice to complete your skateboard- and surf-inspired look. Make sure they have great grip and are comfy if you plan to engage in either sport.
The ‘90s never left! Shop for men’s skateboard and surf clothing from brands like Billabong, Quicksilver, Volcom, Hurley and more at Macy’s.
