THE B-BOY
Breakdancing at the Olympics? Who would have thought! Although it might seem more like an art form than a sport, breaking is making its debut today in Paris. The so-called B-Boys are trailblazers in this new discipline, showcasing an explosive blend of creativity and precision. Known for their impressive moves and tricks—such as intricate footwork, spins, and freezes—their personalities are vibrant combinations of confidence and artistic flair. Reflecting their dedication to pushing the boundaries of the dance form, they draw inspiration from breakdancing legends like Lilou and the B-Boys from R16, channeling their groundbreaking moves and innovative spirit into their performances. Merging edgy streetwear with high-performance elements, they make a powerful statement both on the dance floor and beyond.
For the B-Boy who truly embodies the spirit of hip-hop culture, this outfit masterfully combines style with practicality. Essential for breakdancing, he chooses an off-white Underworld headspin helmet for top-notch safety or a Spin Control 5 Panel Break Cap, designed specifically for breakdancing to highlight his passion for diverse moves and styles. For a more subtle form of protection, he can opt for a black Underworld Durag, which not only safeguards his hair and head but also serves as a classic hip-hop fashion accessory.
His outfit includes streetwear by local brands such as a Calling All Angels ‘libre comme un oiseau’ boxy tee in either off-white or purple-blue, paired with Young Noise night flex pants, emphasizing his unique taste and local pride.
Always ready to perform, he carries a compact Transparent speaker to ensure the beats are always on point, whether he’s spinning to current hits by Marwan Moussa or classic beats by Tupac. His ensemble is completed with some of the scene’s finest bling from the renowned If and Co., featuring a rope chain and a Cuban link chain that add authentic hip-hop flair. He rounds out his look with OG breakdance sneakers by Dyzee Threadz, specifically the 2Step WE’z, and an Adidas logo-print cordura fanny pack that adds both practicality and a stylish edge. This outfit not only highlights his flair for breaking but also his deep appreciation for urban culture and street fashion.
