The fit is a timeless fit featured throughout movies and pop culture. It's the greaser look, obviously. Italian mobsters, Mexican gang members, the pimp in Taxi Driver. Take off Ace Ventura's Hawaiian shirt and he's dressed the same. Check out Denzel Washington in Devil in a Blue Dress. My great grandfather wore that fit, white tee tucked up high into some slacks - old man shit. Aged Chinese men in Beijing wear this exact outfit when strolling the block at sunset as if it's their pajamas.
Dylan used to dress like Arto when he was growing up around Arto and spending a lot of time with him. Then as he started hanging with Dill more, his style became more like Dill's. Dill is inspired by greasers too it's easy to tell and he was dressing like that at the time.
I love Dylan just as much as anyone and miss his elegance but that ain't his look.
Berle's abrupt switch of style to knock-off this same greaser look was embarrassing and I was also annoyed with Swan Pablo and his similar style for a long time.
Anyways. Nothing is original. Time to give up folks.
So let's make a SLAP Forum Boards skate brand and make our own boards. We've got that one guy who designed those sick graphics to help out AWS...

Ethan Fowler wore it before them and I’m sure it wasn’t his idea either.

of course Dylan didn't invent the look and i don't think anyone is claiming that, but nobody else really dressed like him in skateboarding, which is why in the context of skateboarding, Dylan is brought up. regardless of where he took inspiration from, he undeniably had his own thing going and he rocked the fuck out of it. not sure what your point is if you personally admit that you were annoyed with Berle and Sean Pablo adopting that same look.
-
Whatever.
I was into Ishod’s “Cosby sweater” phase.
-
Lol who do you think you are?
-
He didn’t invent the look but he perfected it which is why it’s talked about.
And a Slap board brand would never work because we’d all say we’d buy someone’s pro model if they ever turned pro and then we’d never buy them

If your argument is that this is a timeless fit that isn’t exclusive to Dylan, why are you annoyed with Berle and Sean Pablo for adopting it?

Plenty of people in alternative scenes were doing the same look years before Dylan did it which is where he probably got it from. I'm struggling not to use the word hipster here but it was definitely already a trend in that crowd. When i was in college i mostly hung out with art school students and their uniform was like 4 hole dr martens, cuffed black jeans, plain black belts and a white band t shirt tucked in to the jeans.
I feel like in general skate and alternative culture feed off each other for fashion trends but that one definitely came through alternative culture first

Haha, good stuff.
Forgot how many Slappers can't wait to jump on threads to cool guy everyone. What I meant to do was ask is - why is it still called the "Dylan outfit" - bridging fashion and skating isn't anything particularly new.
To me, he followed in the footsteps of people like Greco, Ellington, Dill and even Heath.
Greco’s Vans Escobars are the first skate shoe that I know of that were designed to look like a dress shoe or loafer.
So why is Dylan attributed with popularizing this mob look? As people said, he's not the first one in skateboarding to do this by a longshot. I think it’s more because skateboarding kept getting more and more mainstream as he was coming up and so more eyes were on him. That plus he’s a hot dude. But it was others before him that pioneered the fashion / model / skate connection.
I mentioned Berle and SP to counter my own argument, that not everyone dressed as an old timey mobster is doing the "Dylan cosplay". However, when it comes to Berle / SP, these two were blatantly copying Dylan because of their abrupt style change and close proximity to him or FA.

Was going to say, he's the hottest one out of all of them so he's the most memorable. He also did it best. Dill always looked homeless and is not attractive, Dylan looked like he was walking out of an art gallery or off the stage at a show with a trail of women behind him. Of course guys idolized him the most so it's his look in your minds. Makes sense.

George Orton probably did the first frontside air.
But Tony Alva made it look good.

Also a good point, but my argument is still that Greco was the orig AND made it look good, but doesn't receive enough credit.

maybe youd stop hearing about the dylan fit so much if you stopped wearing the dylan fit so much bro
-
People need to get over the "someone stole dylan style" stuff, it's a classic and almost universal combination of clothing, the only thing is that dylan beautiful skating and body type suits very nice the super model look with ragged expensive shit, combos like that making a big impact on and off skateboarding.

Whenever this topic comes up it's very easy to tell whose cultural point of reference begins and ends strictly within skateboarding.

Technically you need cuffed jeans or a vneck t for full Dylan fit, just blue jeans and tight white t aren’t a full Dylan fit

No one ever tries to talk about Dylan with me.
I'd probably just say rip nice imps and quickly start talking about products.
I've realized that no one wants to talk about Kalis and his contributions to switch so trucks will have to do

Its kinda crazy how one guy decision to start shopping at H&M and wear fitted clothes revolutionize skateboarding
-
Dylan didn't invent it, but he DID bring it to skateboarding and he perfected it.
It looked great because he was a tall, slender, beautiful dude.
I'm short, I look like a off season bodybuilder, and would look like absolute garbage in those clothes ...

Personally I'm really looking forward to seeing how it affects the next Tired video that they're not hearing about the "Dylan Outfit" anymore.

it is a socially created term, arising from subjective opions of individuals interacting with each other into an idea that is widely recognized by a whole group. it's basically just because dylan was influential, and if you don't feel or see that influence yourself you're not going to grasp it easily by explanation. Easiest way I could put it is that skateboarding at the time had become hesh, fresh, or goofy, and he represented something new that was none of those and was very cool.

Honestly singlets are great. Very versatile for throwing a button up shirt over. Our grand dads were onto something.

“Very cool” was definitely not the response to Dylan’s style, kit, and loafer shoes at the time.

The thing with that look is that you’d have to win some genetic lottery to pull it off as good as he did.
You need long beautiful legs, thin thighs, no body fat to speak of, but relatively broad shoulders. The first adjectives which should come to mind when others think of you should be agile, lithe, nimble. If that does not describe you, don’t even attempt it.

He died of lukemia mate. Not exactly the genetic jackpot. He was skin and bones cause he was sick, not because of some Uber strict fitness routine and diet. He could barley eat. He was dying. That's why he looked the way he did. Look at him in time to shine vs when he died and all the in between and you can watch his body deteriorate in real time.
Not that it really matters. Nor is it any disrespect to the terminally ill. But you could get that same physique with a meth addiction or bulimia. His body gave up. He was dying.

Andrey Tarasov
Skated with him back in 2015 as he was residing in Georgia at the time & he was at the local park I was at while I was down visiting relatives. Say what you will but seeing him skate then was wild. Great style, skated fast & wasn’t your typical young kid with no idea.
I get the dislike for the look or style associated with Dylan. It’s simply not for everyone. I’ve been into the look for awhile myself & it certainly has to also do with playing in bands, getting into printmaking & meeting others who were part of the music scene & art scene. Obviously skating & admiring Dylan too. Love loafers, love tucking my shirt in, all of it. But it’s certainly not a carbon copy. Never was. Just influence from Dylan & many others in the world.
Honestly when you see it in the wild or when I go out & skate with my shirt tucked in, no one says a word or at least has the guts to say anything. Not sure if that’s because they don’t actually care or they’re pissed that everyone else has the same DC’s & polar board, polar pants & a Depop account with a similar name.

have to agree with you, was really confused when gifted hater made his statements about berle & for some reason said that he had too big of a body for that fit. berle looks like any old greaser with that fit

I remember seeing that & that confirming GH knew nothing outside of skate culture. My friend & I were discussing how this happens when there are any reference made when interacting with some people & they are only skate references or about skate culture. Same with music. Only able to talk about music from skate videos which is just about the saddest thing to hear….

Are you kidding me, rieder kit was basically Post-American apparel. Thin t shirts and skinny jeans double cuffed up to flood. He just took out the colors really. Might as well be wearing a deep v in some instances
-
Dylan didn’t wear dickies 874 and wife beaters - he wore black skinny jeans and torn up v necks - different looks , I’d say Dylan’s look was more euro designer vibes then greaser vibes , both looks are stripped down - like no logos on t shirts etc. but the greaser look that Berle goes for is much more LA gangster like the movie “blood in blood out” while Dylan dressed more like a Parisian poet with alcoholism

Dylan wore lots of stuff. He even wore cargo pants at the X games. It's not a big deal

“It’s not a big deal” we all j debating here - ur tryna make it sound like he didn’t have one super dialed in style - he did and he didn’t dress like “eh I wear lots of stuff” at all he had one of the most specific looks a pro skater has ever had . Also when did he wear cargos? Can’t find evidence anywhere , I’m sure he did though and I wanna see

There's that guy on Stereo that's really going for the whole dylan thing, he's kind of like a middle class man's arne stein cause he has better skills and a modeling contract.
Andrey Tarasov
Skated with him back in 2015 as he was residing in Georgia at the time & he was at the local park I was at while I was down visiting relatives. Say what you will but seeing him skate then was wild. Great style, skated fast & wasn’t your typical young kid with no idea.
I get the dislike for the look or style associated with Dylan. It’s simply not for everyone. I’ve been into the look for awhile myself & it certainly has to also do with playing in bands, getting into printmaking & meeting others who were part of the music scene & art scene. Obviously skating & admiring Dylan too. Love loafers, love tucking my shirt in, all of it. But it’s certainly not a carbon copy. Never was. Just influence from Dylan & many others in the world.
Honestly when you see it in the wild or when I go out & skate with my shirt tucked in, no one says a word or at least has the guts to say anything. Not sure if that’s because they don’t actually care or they’re pissed that everyone else has the same DC’s & polar board, polar pants & a Depop account with a similar name.
I'm on your side bro. I watch Andrey's footage and I enjoy seeing people skate in something other than a garbage bag outfit. It's a rarity these days. Let's talk loafers, I need new ones that are similar to Dylan's, like drivers with flat soles don't have the tread going up the heel

Ethan Fowler wore it before them and I’m sure it wasn’t his idea either.

Ethan Fowler was just a dime store Neil Young with those sweaters & boot cuts. Even had the shaggy haircut during that time period.

Someone always does something first but everyone remembers the one who made it popular…..duh…

I can’t do a V neck. Makes me feel like the neck is ruined on my shirt and gives me anxiety. So no “the Dylan outfit” for me.

Templeton was running something pretty similar before him. People have and always will wear plain white shirts jeans/dickies and I’m here for it. Classic style that goes well paired with a wooden toy

Listen I’m fucking tired of hearing about
“czar Nicholas needs to be overthrown” okay?

I can’t get with those. Tread goes up the heel and there is nothing over the instep bone. I want these but in suede

I always read the title of this thread as a question.
"Tired of hearing about the "Dylan outfit?""
No. It's a great outfit.

Got it. Those aren’t too bad. I have some loafers from that brand but they feel cheap.
