From labels that hold up a mirror to hip-hop and its related subcultures to self-aware riffs on high-fashion labels, streetwear brands have always maintained a certain allure for many guys. In its heyday, streetwear and sneaker culture were very closely related, with brands making gear meant to coordinate with fresh kicks, and then evolving into an industry all its own. That means it's a perfect time to lightheartedly riff on the current state of things. Read on to find out What Your Favorite Streetwear Brand Says About You.

16. Billionaire Boys Club
You are a hardcore Pharrell stan or an Asian dude with a passing resemblance to Chad Hugo. You have a self-portrait of yourself done in the style of Baby Milo.
15. Mighty Healthy
You have lyrics from Supreme Clientele tattooed on your body and your go-to kit includes Wallabees and a du-rag.
14. DOPE
Your home page is set to Karmaloop. You recently got your first tattoo. Surprise! It's a full sleeve on your arm.
13. DURKL
You are literally like one of three people in D.C. who isn't a complete turbo-bro douchebag... but you spend most of your weekends Bolt Bus-ing it to New York anyway.
12. Staple
You will fight the slow but sure gentrification of the Lower East Side until you too, are priced out by a luxury hotel.
10. GOLF WANG
You have a curfew but stay up all night rebelling against your parents by posting naked chicks on Tumblr or perfecting your ollie on the driveway, much to the neighbors' chagrin.
9. Crooks & Castles
You are Filipino and got handed a bunch of T-shirts and hoodies from your older brother or cousin who got a "real job" and couldn't wear this shit anymore.
8. Pigalle
You smoke expensive Gauloise cigarettes because you think it's cool and haven't actually been to Paris—you just copped this off the hypebeast forums for three times the price.
7. 10DEEP
You really, really, really love camo, floral patterns, and snakeskin. People know you as "the really cool-looking dude at Agenda that is always in (insert rapper here)'s entourage."
6. The Hundreds
You live in California, love Internet memes, and instinctively salivate anytime you hear the word "collaboration."
5. Stussy
You are either way too young to know how old the brand is or way too old to be wearing streetwear (but you still do anyway, because DAMN THE MAN and you've "always been down with the culture").
4. HUF
You get so high that you think you're a better skater than you actually are. Also, your socks have gotten you in trouble before because your math teacher doesn't think they belong in a high school.
3. Supreme
You're reading this on your phone, because you're currently in line for the next drop.
2. Black Scale
You put "A$AP" in your Twitter name even though no one else in Missouri knows who "A$AP Mob" is.
