Vertical Stripe Shirts

DURKL Foreshadow Button
Buy It Now at DURKL, $75

These shirts were all the rage in clubs and stores like Structure (back when "Express" was still called "The Limited" and only sold womenswear). The vertical stripe has seen modern, slim-fit interpretations from streetwear brands like DURKL and menswear-friendly labels like GANT Rugger.

Timberland 6-Inch Boots

Men's 6-inch Premium Waterproof Boot

Proof that you can't mess with a classic: the Timberland 6-inch wheat boot never fell off in the streets, but is currently seeing a resurgence among the more fashion-forward set. Combine its weatherproof capabilities with improved cushioning, rustproof hardware, and Timberland's own anti-fatigue technology, and you've got a boot that's built to last and more comfortable than its predecessors.

Vintage and Classic Skate Tees

Hook-Ups Mobile Suit 712R T-Shirt
Buy It Now at SoCal Skateshop, $18

Among 90s kids, skate tees reigned supreme. Brands like Zoo York, Alien Workshop, Spitfire, Toy Machine, Supreme, and Hook-Ups were all over the chests of juvenile delinquents, city skate rats, and suburban posers alike. Relive those days with a classic skate tee, or scour eBay for a vintage one that's actually got street cred.

Bright Windbreakers

Burkman Bros. Nautical Jacket
Buy It Now at Park & Bond, $265

Back in the day, it was all about neon, hypercolor, and big logos. These days you can channel that X-Games spirit with a bright color, but dial back on the "eXtreeeeeme" factor by choosing something with a subtle design. Rock it with your favorite tee, a comfortable pair of jeans, and those old white Nautica kicks you've been keeping on ice since 10th grade.

Bucket Hats

Brooks Brothers Poplin Bucket Hat
Buy It Now at Brooks Brothers, $58

Gilligan's favorite hat is back in action. Yeah, Run DMC rocked it pretty heavily in the 80s, but this trend definitely carried over into the 90s heyday of hip-hop, seen on heads like LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes, and more than a few of the Wu-Tang Clan. For extra authenticity, cop one with a strap on the bottom and let it hang below your chin.

Shirts Tied Around The Waist

Hadley Plaid Flannel Shirt
Buy It Now at J. Crew, $40

This is a trend we've been watching for a minute now. Rappers like A$AP Rocky, Kanye West, Kid Cudi, and Wiz Khalifa have all been spotted rocking shirts in this throwback fashion. Now that we've seen it cross over into runway shows by designers like Robert Geller, it's pretty safe to say that it's back for the time being. We'll see how long it sticks around this time...

Stonewashed Denim

BLK DNM Jeans 5
Buy It Now at Park & Bond, $150

Stone washing gets its name from the process where fabric like denim is washed with large stones, and then dried and tumbled in a dryer filled with more large stones: giving the fabric a unique washed look and broken-in feel. In the 90s this method was often seen on carpenter jeans and classic fitting models like the 501, succeeding the acid-washed jean of the 80s. These jeans from BLK DNM take a similar wash and translate it into a more flattering, slimmer cut.

Wallabees

Clarks Wallabees
Buy It Now at Clarks, $140-$150 

The Wu-Tang Clan's Ghostface Killah established himself as The Wallabee Champ because of his unabashed love for this unorthodox footwear silhouette. The comfort they provide can't be denied, and while they're no longer manufactured in Ireland's now-defunct Padmore & Barnes factory, Wallabees have still maintained a certain status among cool guy insiders. Recently, they've been popping up in lookbooks for Club Monaco, and even being sold in their stores.

Two-Tone Nylon  Jackets

Trainerspotter Windjammer Jacket
Buy It Now at ASOS, $94

The two-tone nylon jacket was dominant in the 90s, with iterations of it coming from brands like Starter and Polo Ralph Lauren. The Polo "Snow Beach" jacket is a perfect example of it, and producer Just Blaze proudly owns one. Whether you go with a full-zip or half-zip version with the iconic front velcro pocket, the overall silhouette that's just plain rad.

Coogi Sweater

Coogi V-Neck Sweater
Buy It Now at Eastbay, $300 

Regularly co-signed by Bill Cosby and Biggie Smalls, the Coogi sweater has always had more clout among hip-hop heads than Missoni ever did. The Australian brand has tailored its offerings more towards an urban audience since the 90s, but they still churn out the knits that made them famous — and they're still going to cost a pretty penny.

Who's been rocking them lately? Well, controversial boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. was spotted rocking one during All-Star Weekend, seated next to 50 Cent. If you buy just one Coogi piece, it has to be a pullover sweater. Crewnecks are classic, but v-necks are also dope in that Dwayne Wayne from A Different World kind of way.
