The ultimate streetwear vibe: 5 x must-have
Streetwear and urban wear is our passion at Shams. Through the prints and styles, we express ourselves and share our story making it more possible for the like-minded wanderers to connect with us, to be a part of the same style tribe.
Let’s be real—clothes aren't just about covering up; they're definitely about self-expression. In the world of urban fashion, what you wear speaks volumes and gives you a possibility to show who you are and even your values. Whether you’re heading to a pop-up shop, a low-key chilled hangout, or just out to grab a cup of coffee, your outfit tells your story. So, let’s get into it—here are the top 5 streetwear essentials that are trending hard right now.
5 x streetwear for 2025
1. Baggy jeans are back
That’s right, skinny jeans have officially been benched, for a while at least. Loose, relaxed-fit denim is once again taking over. Pair them for example with a cropped or casual tee, an oversized hoodie, or even a sleek tank top for those layered, cool fits. Bonus points will be earned, if they’ve got rips, patches, or graffiti-style designs—those details that scream effortless cool.
Pro tip:
Look for vintage-inspired washes or hit up 2nd hand thrift shops for that authentic “straight from the ‘90s” vibe. Check out these tees from our shop.
2. Oversized basically everything
Oversized tees, pants, hoodies, and jackets? Always IN. Nowadays, the more billowy the better. Think: comfy, yet stylish. We like it. Layer an oversized shirt over a tight tank to make a noce contrast, or rock a slouchy hoodie with biker shorts for an off-duty look that’s both chill and sizzling.
Pro tip:
Make your style pop with bold logos or interesting graphic designs. For example anime-inspired prints and graffiti art are trending big in 2024 and 2025. This is one of our pics for the season.
3. Sneakers: The louder, the better
When it comes to kicks, streetwear is all about making a statement. Chunky soles on shoes, even neon colors, and wild designs are where it’s at right now. Your sneakers are way more than just footwear—they can be centerpiece of your outfit and a way to rise up your style. Pair them with neutral tones to really let them shine or go all-out with color blocking for an Insta-worthy look, still remembering to be you and not just for the Gram.
Pro tip:
Don’t forget to keep those cool kicks super clean—no one likes a scuffed sole! A quick wipe-down after every wear keeps them looking box-fresh and gives them more value in many way. We always recommend taking care of your things to help them last.
4. Statement accessories
Every streetwear fit needs an exclamation point, and that’s where also accessories jump in. Crossbody bags, bucket hats, and stacked rings are it items right now. Bonus: they’re practical and stylish. Who wouldn't love fashion that holds your wallet, keys, and for girlies, a lip gloss?
Pro tip:
Layer up your chains for a little extra drip, or add tinted shades for that mysteriously interesting “who’s that” -energy.
5. Textures that turn heads
Corduroy, faux leather, and plush fabrics like velvet and fleece are adding depth to streetwear. A soft and furry jacket or corduroy pants can take your outfit from "just chillin’" to "certified icon."
Pro tip from Shams:
Mix and match textures. Pair a hoodie (check out these ones) with leather pants, or corduroy with a cool cotton tee for a look that’s both stylish and cozy.
