JEFF STAPLE (Staple):
Independently created stuff. It wasn't streetwear yet. It was just people
hustling, doing their own thing without any business or financial gain.
Just expression.
JERRY LORENZO (Fear of God):
I guess anything would be considered street that comes outside of the
traditional fashion system… and I still don’t really know what exactly
‘that system’ is.
EDISON CHEN (CLOT):
Streetwear is about culture. It’s not about clothing. It’s about stories.
It's a lifestyle.
It's how we feel. It's how we live. It's what we listen to. It's what we eat.
It's how we spend our money.
