Vans

Why did we include the Vans brand in the Thestreets store?

Vans is a streetwear brand that doesn't need much explanation. It has its origins, but in the city it also works quite simply: as a shoe that fits into an everyday life and a relaxed silhouette. When something feels natural when you move and can be worn repeatedly, the street will keep it.

Most often, this is through a clean fit, where the shoe keeps the step relaxed and the rest of the outfit is more about the cut than the inscriptions. Vans works when it's not crowded and simplicity is allowed to work. When moving around the city, it quickly becomes clear whether it's a pair that goes into rotation naturally.

How to wear them, what to combine them with?

• for everyday days in the city, when walking, sitting and short trips alternate

• for a free weekend mode, when the outfit should be relaxed and without much solution

• with wider trousers, where the silhouette of the shoes looks natural and does not overpower the rest

• for meetings outside, when you want a civil impression without a sports set

• for traveling, when a simple pair that can be worn over and over again is suitable

When considering an alternative for longer walks, many people alternate their wardrobe with new balance. And with a more pronounced basketball-street mood, the nike dunk will naturally also be included in the combinations.

What to look out for when buying

When choosing, it is good to be honest about how much you will actually walk in them and what type of day awaits you. In the city, the feeling in your step after an hour is decisive, not the first impression in the fitting room. It also makes sense to consider how the shoe goes with the pants you wear most often, because a simple silhouette can be sensitive to proportions.

The most common things to look at are:

• how it feels after a few hours of moving around, not just when you first put it on

• whether the shape fits in the front so that the leg is not cramped during a long day

• how the silhouette looks with the length of the pants you normally wear

• whether it can be worn repeatedly without feeling like the outfit is always the same

• how the rest of the fit works so that the result does not look "too sporty" or "too school"

When an outfit is to be shifted towards a more urban stability, nike air force, and as a complete basis for regular movements, simple sneakers are still held.

Frequently asked questions - FAQ

Are Vans more for short movements, or can you work in them all day?

It depends on how much you walk and what your daily routine is. It is best to notice whether nothing presses after an hour of walking and whether your step remains natural without having to correct it.

How to wear it so that the outfit doesn't look too "skate uniform"?

It helps to keep the rest of the outfit civil and work with the cut, not with a lot of thematic details. When the fit is simple, the shoes are just a natural base.

Practical experience, tips and tricks

With this silhouette, I often see people decide after a few steps and after noticing how it goes with their pants. When standing, everything looks the same, but walking will show if the leg feels natural. The biggest difference is the proportion: when the shoes and pants "fit" together, the outfit feels calm without much thought. And that's exactly why Vans remains in rotation.

Who is Vans for?

It suits people who want a simple urban base and don't want to tackle their wardrobe as a project. It also makes sense for those who like a relaxed street style without a sporty feel. It works on days when the pace changes and the outfit should remain natural.

Dickies

Why did we include Dickies in Thestreets?

Dickies entered the city life through honest, working foundations, not through posing. It works on the streets because when you have things that can withstand a real day, you stop worrying about whether they are "in" and start worrying about whether they can be relied on. It is a brand that can hold its shape even when the day changes as it goes along and the outfit has to handle more than just a nice moment in front of the mirror.

In practice, Dickies revolves around the cut and how the pants behave when walking and sitting. When the silhouette fits, the rest of the fit doesn't have to make a big show. It often comes down to simple layers and footwear that balances comfort and character.

How to wear them, what to combine them with?

• for city trips, when walking, public transport and standing outside for a long time alternate

• for days when practicality is the key and the outfit should withstand even worse surfaces and pace

• with a simple T-shirt and a layer on top, so that the workwear looks civilian, not costume-like

• for weekend city routines, where comfort becomes apparent after a few hours, not after the first few minutes

• with relaxed shoes, when you want to let the silhouette of your trousers "breathe" without excessive styling

A good base is often made by ordinary sneakers, while many people balance it with something simple on their feet like vans.

What to look out for when buying

With Dickies, the cut and length are most often the deciding factor. The difference between a relaxed fit and shapeless pants is often just where they end above the shoe and how they sit at the waist. It also makes sense to think about whether you want to wear them higher or lower, because this will change the entire proportion of the figure.

The most common things to look at are:

• how the length looks when you walk, whether the fabric is unnecessarily bunched up or, conversely, does it look short

• whether there is room to move in the thighs and knees without the pants "pulling"

• how the waistband fits when you sit so that the outfit does not require constant adjustment

• whether it can be combined with simple layers so that workwear does not take away the lightness of the outfit

• how the silhouette works with the shoes you wear most often, not just with one pair

When you add a top layer for the transitional period, many people go for something functional the north face, and when it comes to shoes, it is sometimes softened into civilian style with new balance.

Frequently asked questions - FAQ

How to choose a cut so that Dickies do not look too bulky?

It helps to start with the length and waist, because those two things make the silhouette. When the volume is balanced with a simple top and clean shoes, the result looks natural even without extra styling.

Can workwear be worn casually so that it doesn't look like a work outfit?

Yes, the combination and the rest of the fit are key. When the number of "work" details is not increased and only the cut is allowed to stand out, a wearable urban base remains.

Practical experience, tips and tricks

At Dickies, I've often seen people come in looking for a durable piece, but leave especially excited that they finally found a proportion that suits them. The length makes a huge difference, especially when worn with bulky shoes or, conversely, with a low profile. You'll also be surprised how quickly workwear "calms down" when the rest of the outfit is kept simple. It works best when you let it live in your everyday life, not when you try to look "workwear".

Who is Dickies for?

It suits people who want a solid urban foundation and don't like to approach their wardrobe as a project. It also makes sense for those who base their outfit on a trouser cut and need it to work when walking, sitting, and at the pace of the day. When worn casually and without pressure, the workwear character comes naturally.
