DC Shoes
Why did we include the DC Shoes brand in the Thestreets store?
DC Shoes carries a skate DNA that can be felt on the streets even without a board underfoot. The city likes a more robust attitude and things that can withstand a tougher regime, because the sidewalk and asphalt can be honest. When shoes and clothes look functional and have character at the same time, the street will take them for its own.
In practice, DC Shoes are often worn in a relaxed, wider silhouette, where comfort and stability during movement are addressed. An outfit works best when it doesn't try to be a "skate set", but just a natural urban fit. With this style, a simple rest and good proportion go a long way.
How to wear them, what to combine them with?
-
for city walks, when asphalt, pavement and interior alternate without a break
-
with wider trousers, where more robust footwear looks natural
-
for days outdoors, when the pace changes and footwear has to keep up
-
for a free weekend regime, where the outfit is put together quickly and has to last all day
-
in combination with simple layers, so that the skate influence does not have a strong effect
When in a skate mood, it is natural that vans, and when someone wants to make the fit more basketball-street, they often complement it with a silhouette like nike dunk.
What to look out for when buying
When choosing DC Shoes, it is good to consider whether the shoe fits the shape and whether you can walk in it all day without struggling. A more robust silhouette is fine, but if the width or heel does not fit, you feel it with every step. In the city, it is also important to consider whether it can be combined with a regular wardrobe without making the outfit look too heavy.
The most common things to watch are:
-
how the heel holds up when walking faster and when stopping on the sidewalk
-
whether the foot has a natural space in front even after hours of wearing it
-
how the silhouette looks with the pants you wear most often
-
whether the outfit can be kept simple so that the robust footwear does not seem excessive
-
how it behaves in urban mode during the day, when the surface and pace change
If the result is to shift more towards a basketball silhouette, a comparison with jordan 4, and if someone wants to stick to a more general urban base, they will do so through sneakers.
Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
Is it also suitable for regular wear around the city when I'm not riding a board?
Yes, many people wear it purely civilianly precisely because of the more robust impression and stability. It is important that the shape fits and that you can walk normally in it all day.
How to put it together so that the outfit does not seem too heavy?
It helps to keep the rest simple and not make every element "the main thing". When the volume of the legs is balanced and the top is kept clean, the rugged shoe looks more natural.
Practical experience, tips and tricks
With DC Shoes, people often stop thinking about the trend and start thinking about functionality, which is a good sign. In practice, it quickly becomes clear whether the step is stable and whether the shoe maintains a predictable feel even after hours. The biggest surprise is when they find out that the rugged silhouette doesn't have to seem aggressive if the rest of the fit remains calm. When the proportions are right, it looks natural without pressure.
Who is the DC Shoes brand for
It suits people who like a skate influence and want things to handle a tougher urban regime without skimping. It also makes sense for those who base their outfit on the silhouette of the shoe and keep the rest simple. It works on days when movement, the street and casual meetings mix without the need to change their wardrobe.

MARKET
Why did we include the MARKET brand in the Thestreets store?
MARKET is a type of streetwear that works through ideas and mood, not through persuasion. It sticks in the city when it can be worn repeatedly and it still looks natural, even if the piece has its own signature. The street takes what has character, but at the same time it can be worn normally.
In practice, it often relies on one more prominent piece and the rest goes into simplicity so that the outfit is not crowded. In streetwear, the cut and proportion are decisive, because that is what determines whether you can walk around in it all day without feeling "put on". When the balance is right, the outfit looks relaxed and at the same time has a signature.
How to wear them, what to combine them with?
-
for city days when you want one character element and keep the rest clean
-
for evening meetings where the outfit looks confident without much noise
-
for layering in the transition period when the weather changes and the fit has to work in motion
-
with simple trousers so that the top gets space without fighting for the silhouette
-
for weekend mode when the outfit is put together quickly, but you don't want to look random
The footwear base is often ordinary sneakers, and when you want to keep the basketball vibe, jordan 1 will naturally fit into the combinations.
What to look out for when buying
When it comes to MARKET, it's wise to consider whether the piece fits your figure and whether it can be worn repeatedly without quickly getting old. A more prominent element can be great, but when the length or volume doesn't fit, the outfit starts to look heavy. It helps to clarify whether it should be the center of the fit, or just a detail to a simple base.
The most common things to look for are:
-
whether the shoulder and sleeve fit so that you can move naturally
-
how the length and volume work with the pants you normally wear
-
whether it can be layered without making the outfit look too much
-
how the piece behaves after a day of wearing it, when walking, sitting and moving alternately
-
whether it can be combined with a clean base without the need to match the "set"
When it comes to shoes, a basketball-inspired silhouette is often considered, so nike dunk, and when it comes to the top layer for transfers, people often reach for the north face.
Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
How to wear it so that it doesn't seem like "too much"?
It works best to have one more pronounced element and keep the rest clean. When the silhouette breathes and there is no overabundance of details, the character remains, but the outfit doesn't seem exaggerated.
Can it also be included in more civilian combinations?
Yes, when you work with the cut and the rest of the outfit remains simple. The striking element then acts as a signature, not a costume.
Practical experience, tips and tricks
With similar streetwear brands, I notice that people make decisions based on a sense of proportion, not on the label. It often looks good in the fitting room, but only after a few steps does it become clear whether the piece is stretching or twisting. The biggest difference is when you leave space around the striking element and leave the rest calm. When it fits, the outfit looks natural even after a whole day in the city.
Who is the MARKET brand for
It suits people who want streetwear with an idea, but still care about wearability. It also makes sense for those who like simple outfits and add one character element that keeps the mood. It works in a city where movement, meetings and transfers alternate without the outfit having to be an event.
