Streetwear is perhaps the most common type of style for men. This is a casual style that became popular in the 1990s. Imagine what most young adults and millennials are wearing these days - that's what streetwear is all about. It's effortless and comfortable without sacrificing style. Streetwear typically includes sneakers, graphic T-shirts, casual shorts, and sweatpants as key clothing items.

While streetwear can encompass a fairly wide range of styles, there are some tried-and-true tips that are sure to elevate your look. Are you ready to step up your style this year? Here are six tips you can apply to create streetwear from head to toe:

With this in mind, a modern take on the common cargo pants is skinny joggers. They're still comfortable and functional, with a utilitarian feel without being baggy. Team your cargo or jogging pants with your favorite sneakers and a cool tee, and you're ready to go.

Like other clothing types, men's streetwear comes in different fabric types. Of course, there are better than others. Since they're something you'll wear more often when you're not in the office, it makes perfect sense that you should always opt for quality fabrics when shopping for streetwear.

Wearing streetwear that is sewn from high-quality fabrics can actually make all the difference and make you look better. You don't have to worry too much about creases, seams, and loose threads looking messy and unpleasant.

Known as the most widely used fabric due to its versatility, cotton can be found in hats, sweaters, pants, and hoodies. Cotton is great for everyday wear because it resists pilling, allowing you to walk around comfortably without worrying about tearing.

A plain weave fabric in which the twill yarns are packed closely together to form its signature thick pattern of twill parallel ribs. Twill fabrics generally have a front (technical face) and a back (technical back), with the front being more visually appealing, durable, and visible.

Nylon is a synthetic polymer fabric made from monomers -- long chains of carbon-based molecules. Originally marketed as an alternative to silk for stockings, it is by far one of the most commonly used fabrics due to its high versatility.

Making streetwear look stylish also involves being able to draw the line between baggy and baggy. The streetwear you choose should be loose enough to be comfortable. However, it shouldn't be so baggy that your outfit doesn't look flattering anymore.

Don't choose clothes that are so tight that you won't be able to move around. You might as well wear a suit. Remember, streetwear is more about comfort without sacrificing your style.

A good pair of sneakers is the icing on the cake for streetwear. In fact, your sneakers are the most important part of your look. No streetwear is complete without them. When you invest in quality streetwear, you should also opt for quality sneakers. They should be able to withstand wear and tear.

If you want to have sneakers that match your everyday streetwear, go for basic or neutral colors. Skip super bright or those designs that you have a hard time matching with your outfit.

Even if you're a loyal patron of a streetwear brand, that doesn't mean you can walk around like the brand's walking ads. Looking stylish means having a clean, casual look. As much as possible, this means not overwhelming and bold logos.

If you're looking to simplify your life, neutral colors can go a long way. When you stick to the fundamentals, you rarely need to mix and match. Plus, you don't have to spend too much time thinking about your outfit or worrying about whether you've gone too far with color.

For the days when you want to ditch your jogging pants and cargo pants, you can't go wrong with quality jeans. Not only will it last, but the high-quality denim will offer understated class.

All you need is classic styles: dark jeans and more casual blue jeans that will go with just about any tee you choose to wear.

Here's our selection of eye-catching outfits to keep you on top of today's latest trends.

Today, jogging pants are at the forefront of streetwear and are a major part of creating a comfortable yet eye-catching look.

In the context of streetwear, fashion-forward men have been wearing joggers in a variety of jogger pants, from sweatpants materials to denim and even khaki joggers featuring classic tapered ankles and drawstring waistbands.

Joggers can be the basics of men's streetwear...with a hoodie, bomber jacket, or even a blazer and a white tee. It's one streetwear staple you won't want to give up.

While you might think cargo pants are the ultimate dad look, these practical and versatile pants are a must-have for any streetwear look. Cargo pants have certainly experienced a renaissance in recent years, but have always had a place in streetwear culture.

Not only can you fit all your belongings into multiple pockets (although we recommend using a crossbody bag instead of weighing down pants), but they look impressive with a variety of tops.

For classic men's streetwear, try pairing cargo pants with polo shirts, dad hats, and bomber jackets. Or swap out polo shirts for bold logo tees and oversized hoodies.

The Dalian hoodie is the heart of streetwear, but there's still a difference between the oversized fit and the boxy fit. When it comes to streetwear, oversized hoodies and all manner of loose-fitting garments reign supreme. Loose clothing still roughly fits your figure, while baggy clothing simply engulfs you.

Pair a loose sweatshirt with leggings for a contrast in your outfit. Look best with skinny jeans or straight-leg pants, and pair them with sneakers or platform boots for a creative twist on your outfit.
