A history of Tribal Streetwear and its reflection of Southern California fashion.

Tribal Streetwear is a lifestyle streetwear brand that is inspired by a variety of southern California subcultures, including graffiti, street art, skateboarding, surfing, tattoos, and hip-hop. It has strong Chicano roots in its aesthetic, and the impact of its designs spans the globe. Tribal and the Cultural Legacy of Streetwear explores the history of Tribal and the uniqueness of southern California aesthetics. The book features a series of articles by cultural tastemakers who have contributed to street culture and Tribal, as well as peer-reviewed academic articles on distinct subjects within the street culture genre that further delve into the influences of Tribal.
