While streetwear has been around for decades, the ultra-cool, effortlessly fashionable style of dress really became global in the 1990s. There are a few brands to thank for that, like Supreme, which was established in New York City in 1994 and helped propel skate style and culture in the city forward, and Stussy, which was created by Los Angeles-based designer Shawn Stussy during the rise of surf and skate culture in Southern California in the late 80s. 

Nowadays, streetwear and street style are taken just as seriously as some red carpet and black tie events, so it’s important to know how to style your outfit to make it look cool, flawless, and luxurious, all while also looking like you just threw something on while running out the door. And while it’s no secret that most streetwear garments can double as loungewear, that doesn’t mean you can’t look like a million bucks in a graphic tee, hoodie, skinny jeans, or athletic shorts while cruising around town alone or with your buds.

Check out the 12 best streetwear brands that’ll seriously up your street style. 

1. Supreme

Supreme may have gained A-list popularity over the last decade, but the brand’s actually been around for much longer than that. Established in 1994 in Manhattan, Supreme prides itself on New York City skate culture, and according to their website, punks, hip-hop heads, and skaters all gravitate towards Supreme’s signature style and streetwear authenticity.

From bold colored hoodies and jackets to printed crewneck sweatshirts and comfortable t-shirts, Supreme is the go-to choice for streetwear lovers everywhere, and even if you’re new to streetwear or are just building your collection, you can definitely find something that’ll fit your style. 

Bonus: They have a slew of cool accessories, like bucket hats, backpacks, and even umbrellas, so you can look stylish and hip from head to toe – even in the rain.
