Standing on Bleecker street between Broadway and Lafayette, in front of the future main entrance of Kith NYC.
“This look features the Kith red varsity jacket I made with Goldenbear exclusively for Friends and Family.
It has calfskin sleeves, a polyfill lining for the Winter and a collegiate-inspired “K” logo which is the new symbol for our varisty jackets this year. The K has Just Us embroidered into it along with everyones personal initials.”
“The sneakers are Hyperfuse Air Max 1′s in the white/royal colorway. They brought this vintage colorway back, but on a modernized body.
And of course, a Yankees hat. Classic.”

Ronnie Fieg is giving street wear more substance while maintaining it’s integrity. I understand why he wouldn’t choose a ysl shoe over nike air max or asics. Ysl isn’t true streetwear. His work is something that the streetwear crowd can relate to while making it important to the fashion world, instead of being viewed as something less serious.
Shameless plug(s) feat: Ronnie Fieg
Ronnie makes some of the best boatshoes in the game that most don’t know about. I own 2 pairs of his collabs. With that said, he dresses incoherently. It’s clownish. No grown man should wear sweatpants outside the comfort of his own home. We may not agree on styling but keep up the good shoe design work, RF!
What is sophisticated about Nike Air Max? I would have chosen Lanvin or YSL for a more sophisticated urban look
I agree with earlier posts, aside from look 4, the looks lack any direction at all
Looking back, I should have more clearly defined what I meant by Streetwear. I wouldn’t consider European designer sneakers to fall in the same category, given the context.
why not?
In this context we’re trying to highlight brands specific to the Streetwear lifestyle category, and the evolution of their designs and aesthetic.
Everything on this site looks great but someone needs to proofread the text!
You’re all haters, ronnie’s style is amazing and 100% original! I give him big credit on the outfits he puts together because they look very grown man and hip at the same time.
Im a high school student and cant wear things like double breasted fitted suits or wingtips to school. loved this post, need more like it
You guys really need to open your minds. This site is all about looking your best in the world your in. Not everyone is going to be living in a scene where a pocket square and double monks are appropriate. Ronnie Fieg is the best at what he does and pushes the limits in his field the way Dan tries to in his. After all isn’t that what this site is about? If it’s not for you, it’s not for you. But respect the creativity and craftsmanship of what’s being done, because whether you like it or not Ronnie is an innovator in his field and worked his way up from a stock room. Nothing but love. Great post. Keep up the good work.
well put! really loved the last look, mirrored New York hat and the floral sleaved jacket!
I notice the negative comments on Ronnie Fieg and his style of dress. We all know that TSB focuses mainly on dappered style and fashion. But remember this post is focusing on street style and nobody is doing it better than Ronnie Fieg in my opinion. This guy sells out on every sneaker/boot/shoe collaboration that he puts out. He collaborates with brands that many would look past. Take the athletic brand Asics for example, Fieg has pushed the brand to new heights. RF Asics gel lyte sell on ebay for $300 on average. I appreciate RF’s detail for quality when it comes to streetwear.
To each their own but this style leaves me cold. It’s ok if you’re under, say, mid 20s or a hip-hop ‘artist’, but anyone older wearing this clobber just looks like a Peter Pan try-hard. But keep up this type of post. I like seeing diversity in fashion/style.
Digging the shoes! Especially with the last look! I think his fit is spot on as well, great post.
Hi TSBmen Crew,
Digging the post. In particular, the “Crew Love” look really stands out. Beside the phenomenal jacket, the tailored sweatpants are on point. The style actually is actually more more practical for working out because you dont have the excess material falling over the back of your sneakers. Great work with the feature.
Best,
Sabir
Absolutely love this post. Like the new page as well, two thumbs up guys! Keep it coming
This guy is fresh! A lot of people don’t “get” streetwear…I think its dope. Just flashy enough in the right places.
My second attempt at posting; I’ll try to be more diplomatic.
Streetwear and hip-hop is tricky — it can easily look contrived.
The only look that works in my opinion is #4. Love the pants and scarf combination.
The rest of the looks, however, miss the mark. It all looks so gimmicky, save for the footwear (awesome boots) and of course, the Yankee hat.
None of this is anything I’d want to try, especially the shoes and that style of baseball cap. But I hand it to him for looking good in it all. As you say, fit is important, and he has the fit just right.
I guess I don’t get the appeal of what I see, in spite of the attention to fit and selection, as nonetheless “gangsta” inspired, for lack of a better work. I think there is definitely a difference between that kind of style and regular “street” style.
His look is concived of all the most popular streetwear pieces. You can find men dressed like him anywhere tbh. I prefer a mix of streetwear and formalwear myself
The fourth outfit is really nice, warm and comfortable as well.

The looks make you look younger than that individual is.
Over sized T shirt in the first picture? Not my cup of tea.
I am definitely digging the tapered sweats! Awesome post!
As a woman and fan of menswear I appreciate the diversity that you have included in your more recent post. I am definitely a fan of the site in general and its great to see that you are touching on various aspects of menswear!!! I absolutely love this post!!
Man, I’m going to sound like a hater but this article is like looking at a missed lay-up when we are used to getting slam dunks. Still a fan of the website nonetheless
while not necessarily my style big ups to this guy. anyone who shows this much passion for something deserves respect.
Frankly, I don’t think that one of these fits is cohesive.
I agree with Sid, this is one of the best posts yet. Keep it up, guys!
Not my cup of tea. You have dope stuff in general though so I’ll live.
Rf is going nowhere but up. I wish I lived in Ny so I could get some Rf shoe releases. Rf does some amazing stuff. His asics collabs are on point and his new balance collabs are sick. Quality on his stuff is top notch. Ronnie, send me a pair of those eclipse asics please. I’ll try for the kithstrike, but probably fail. They are a knockout.
Not my cup of tea, but I bet this will be a popular article. Well done.
Streetwear has evolved to a more intricate and elegant stage. The silhouettes are tapered & the culture exudes a very positive ambiance. Providing a holistic view of men’s fashion is refreshing and essential. Great Work Gentleman.

one of the best posts
Baseball hat+baseball jacket +sweatpants+sneakers.
This is why streetwear will always be subpar.
I just don’t get the appeal of those shoes. Just looks like plastic.
