PBS Documentaries · Feb 1, 2024 · published to YouTube

Hoodies, Graphic-Ts, Sneakers, casual comfortable clothes, all accentuated with designer-brands — these are just some of the pieces that make up streetwear, the global style that came from the fusion of Hip-Hop and Skater Culture. Our host Dr. Taj Frazier meets with Chris Gibbs, Hip-Hop head, skater, fashion tastemaker, and owner of the famed LA streetwear boutique, Union, to learn how two different cultures came together to redefine how we dress. ***** PBS Member Stations rely on viewers like you.
