Streetwear Look 050 Joggers + Slub T-Shirt Miami Design District

By

I’m obsessed with cotton slub tees in general. And when I found out about Devereux’s new slim-fit chinos, made from Japanese twill and added stretch properties for versatility and comfort, I though “…that sound dope”. I’m always looking for a new denim alternative to mix things up. What’s great about Devereux’s new slim-fit chinos, aside from the super high quality material, is the cut, is that they are cut like joggers with a tapered leg. So they look great with sneakers and give you more of that edgy streetwear look. Find out how to create this outfit, my take on the color trends, and my advice on which sizes to order from Devereux.
