Looking to step up from Stüssy? These 9 brands share the aesthetic but bring elevated materials, construction and a higher price tier — ranked by overall similarity.
London skate brand founded in 2009 by Lev Tanju, known for Tri-Ferg graphics, VHS-era humour and weekly Friday drops.
Why it's similar. Logo tees, hoodies, caps and tracksuits from a skate brand that puts its triangle logo first, much like a signature logo.
What changes. Releases come in weekly Friday drops with a password-gated store, and the tone is jokier London skate humour.
European-run fashion offshoot of American workwear brand Carhartt, reworking Detroit jackets and duck canvas staples for skate and streetwear audiences.
Why it's similar. Script-logo hoodies and tees alongside work jackets and work trousers that match the same workwear side.
What changes. Built on duck-canvas utility pieces rather than graphics, so fewer loud logo tees.
Amsterdam streetwear label founded in 2004, known for script-logo basics, sportswear staples and long-running Nike sneaker collaborations.
Why it's similar. Script-logo tees and hooded sweaters as everyday staples, worn the same logo-first way.
What changes. Leans toward Amsterdam football and sportswear rather than surf, and the store mixes in other labels.
