 Man 2018 was not the best year for Johnny. I was insecure. I was cynical and I didn't know what the hell I was doing with my fashion I still don't so I'm surprised. I still even had subscribers back then Oh, and if you guys are wondering what these strips are my New York sign fell down. I put it up multiple times It keeps falling down. I'm just gonna leave it there. Sorry guys. Hopefully in the next video I'll be back up. Anyways, I decided to create a new series on the channel where I'm recreating my old outfits Thank you for whoever suggested that on my channel. That's where the inspiration come from and really appreciate it guys Since fashion is always cycling in new trends and I get into different types of things I'm sure I'm gonna find today's fits cringy in the future So there's probably gonna be no shortage of cringy outfits. Anyways, you guys clicked on the video You guys know what this video is about. So let's get into it So first off I set a few parameters The recreated outfit has to have either the same color blocking or the same concept of how I compose that fit back then So let's just say it was a summer outfit where I wore shorts That's where the recreated outfit has to take inspiration from and you guys are going to see that later in the video Let me know if you guys have any suggestions on you know parameters. I should follow. So let's go ahead and find some cringy outfits It shouldn't be too hard.

Let's go ahead and find some cringy outfits As you can see you probably find one right now But let's go back a little bit further. It's kind of the summertime right now towards the end of summertime So starting to get a little bit cooler, but still kind of hot outside Let's stick to that theme All right, so I think I'm gonna do this outfit right here Let me tell you my mindset behind this outfit, okay? So back then, you know, I did I learned a little bit of color blocking. This is 20. Was this 2018? This is this is 2018. Okay, so back then I knew a little bit about color blocking I didn't really know what the hell I was doing and I was super into fitted clothes Fitted clothes fitted clothes fitted clothes. Everything had to be fitted and to me in my humble opinion Fitted clothes and streetwear in general just you can do it But for the most part I feel like you can only do it whenever you layer But this is just a regular, you know, normal summer outfit And frugal man, I hope you're watching this but I know you shot these you shot these pictures, man I wish you told me how shitty my outfits were but um Anyways, so the concept behind this was the olive top and the bread ones Basically, that's complimentary colors if you guys know a little bit about color blocking Basically, if you mix those colors it should come out neutral and that's why they you know They complement each other so painters always say if you want to make your red pop paint some green next to it Because they're complementary colors. It makes the red pop. It's just like orange and teal complementary colors So that's why you always see that type of filter on the gram What was cool about this this day was we got hot pot afterwards and flushing those were the good old days So let's see the top I'm wearing essentials long sleeve shirts. Um, nothing wrong with essentials I really like their stuff anyways. I just didn't think I pulled it off right in this outfit. So Essentials top you can see you can see the nipple going I was obsessed with showing the physique man I wasn't in that swole. Okay, so the distress black denim I believe think it was the m the minimal m1 denim these had zippers. Obviously it was zippered denim distressing This is clearly 2016 2017 vibes, but it's 2018 now and I'm still rocking this stuff And then the bread ones and then when I was living in New York I saw people popping their laces out on the side of the breads. I don't really do that anymore I just I did it because everyone else did it back then Geez man, and then I had some whack here Uh, you know got to look hard for the gram type of face And then I'm wearing a necklace rose golden black not really into the black grenade type of necklaces anymore Um, I always like the minimal bar necklaces But yeah, that's a that's a separate type of video and I'm I picked up something from this construction site It was very uh, it was very industrial and work wear types of vies That probably would have matched this the vibe of this picture perfectly. But yeah, this is a very It's a very cringe outfit for me because man, I thought I knew I was doing back then for real For real So we're gonna recreate this outfit I'm gonna be following the color blocking So that'll be the olive and the red complimentary color So I have to follow the olive and red somehow in the fits and so let's check out the outfit So here's a recreated outfit, you know, I'd say I did a pretty solid job So what's the same? Well, like I said the concept of red and olive two complementary colors that always work awesome together Other than that the entire silhouette of the fit is completely different No longer are there skinnies and skin type clothing items. So starting off We got a simple black dad hats then for our top we have this olive crew neck from riot division What I really dig about this is its asymmetrical pockets It's a little offset at the bottom of the shirt and I kind of like that And it also has this dual tone look different shades of olive, you know With the pocket and the shirt and because there are cuffs on the ends of the sleeves I use these to hike up my sleeves a little bit if you guys saw my upgrade your boring outfits video You could always grab a hair tie from your girl or whatever Maybe a rubber band and use that to roll up your sleeves I really like how it looks and instead of the grenade necklace because it's 2020 We've got on a bandana. Now if you guys have seen christians videos He does this a lot way before the pandemic even started And it's a really great way to add a pop of color or in this case a little pattern onto the outfits Then a messenger bag from uniclo. You guys have heard me talk about this a lot Gives the fit a more technical look while just being able to carry my hand sanitizer or laptop and all that So the top half of my body is completely different than 2018 pants are from uniclo simple straight cut pants Nothing too special All I know is that uniclo has got your back with the hem length and they will also tailor your clothes if necessary And then the breads now currently I'm in the mindset of you don't always have to show off the whole silhouette of the Sneaker I'll still do it. But like with skinny jeans and relaxed fitting pants. You got options There are seven days of the week some days. I'll let the pants and go for the entire sneaker and some days I like to show it off then a few accessories I've got on the orient kamasu and a simple metal cuff and that's fit number one still a pretty simple fit But elevated from the original 2018 cringy outfit. All right, what'd you guys think of that new updated outfit? Let me know in the comments down below. Okay, so now let's look for the second outfit And since it's really hot right now in new mexico, let's find a really okay. I already found it This is like a true summer fit right here, right? So All right, man. I was obsessed. We're trying to look swole, man I was super insecure back then man. I need the lights from the ladies for validation to feel 2018 johnny man Okay, so the concept behind this outfit. Um, I'm wearing the band's authentic. I'm wearing track shorts from Cowboys from eptm. This is a long time ago I'm just wearing a bro tank from uh h&m and then a gold chain with a angel on it Uh, Jesus and then be the bracelets, you know the college vibes, you know, I'm a ladies man type of man Okay, so the concept behind this outfit I remember this outfit being worn a ton when I was living in forest hills I was I was kicking with the homies I was living with jimmy zang, you know, frugal aesthetic, kerbucci and a few other people What we would always do is we'd bring the board we'd skate to ride aid It was right down the street and we'd buy uh, or at least I'd buy, you know Either protein cookies bed and jerry's ice cream a monster And some hot cheetos man. I'd buy that almost every single time So and then we would skate back just for fun. It was a beautiful night forest hills summertime good vibes Okay, so we're gonna recreate this outfit following the concept of wearing shorts It's in the vans making a skater type of aesthetic. So we're gonna introduce a skater inspired outfit for our recreation Okay, so to recreate and update this outfit as you guys heard I wore this fit to skate in the summertime heat Out in queens man. I miss those days a lot of good memories So for our fit I went with just a simple contrast type of color blocking while incorporating some skate elements to the fit Because when you skate it's all about comfort. Johnny, you're a poser. Well, how about you shut your mouth and watch the video? Anyways, I rolled my ankle. So I'm not doing any fancy tricks or anything But let's start out with the top now in the cringe outfit. The tank was white So I pulled from that as well and rolled with the white erism boxy tea It's peak summer here pretty hot So erism is the way to go and is a must to stay cool Also threw on that same black cap from amazon because there's no point in doing the hair if I'm just going To be sweating all day But also like the last fit that is the biggest difference that has changed from 2018 till now I thought I could never wear hats But that was just my limited belief until I tried one that actually fits my head shape So it just goes to show try some stuff out and you'll most likely find what works for you Instead of quickly disregarding it. Then we got on these shorts from aesthetic revolution You know, it's moisture wicking stretchy 3m reflective yada yada yada. It's a great pair of shorts And then a simple black pair of crew socks from yielden and then the ninja twos Honestly, this is one of my favorite skate sneakers out right now It has a runner cut and shaped to it but skates like a normal cup sole sneaker and it has awesome durability You also really pick up the sneaker and all white if you have the chance It's a great way to switch up the typical sneakers that we always wear You know white leather sneakers and air force ones and all that easy power phases It's a completely different type of silhouette that a lot of people don't really wear And finally easy accessories that aren't too bulky because if I fall and I wore a watch my wrist is going to be messed up Fortunately, these items are pretty loose and can easily be taken off if needed So my thought process on this fit was the uniclo tee takes up a ton of real estate on my body It's a massive contrast to anything I will wear on my fit So to dilute that harsh white look everything else on the fit had to be black minus the sneakers Of course before I always thought it was really hard to pull off a big white tee like this But if the rest of your fit is one solid color, I find it looks a lot more cohesive All right, so that was the second outfit. How do you guys like the the recreated outfits? You know, I think I did I think I did a pretty good job I mean the bar wasn't that high to you know, it's a cross, but um Yeah, I don't really see too many youtubers making this type of video So I hope this video picks up and inspires you guys to you know, try and recreate an old outfit that you guys You know wore in the past.
