A Swag Manifesto
What is Swag, and how do I know if I have ‘it’?

Everyone possesses Swag in some shape or form even if they themselves do not recognize it. Swag is the summation of a person’s style and personality.
Style, to be specific clothing style, is the part of Swag that people tend to think is most important, however, it is no more important than the other two factors. In fact it is actually better to be lacking in clothing style than in personality or physical disposition, because no matter how raw your clothes may be if you’re an asshole it is all for nothing. What is most important about style is using clothes that don’t necessarily match, yet those that flow. By flow, I mean does your outfit work together as more than the collective sum of its parts? Simply put do you add your own flare and persona into your outfit?
In sum, your style should be unique and original, not just a carbon copy of what’s currently being worn at your school, community, or place of business. Having style means that you are able to test out new things comfortably while letting your persona shine through confidently.

Lupe Fiasco’s clothing line, Fall of Rome is collaborating with False to release items in the U.S. under the Fallacy of Rome name. Recently released are 2 different versions of a Kerberos tee. I personally think the tees are dope, and they retail for around $60.
Also, Pusha T & Malice, a.k.a. The Clipse, have also officially launched their clothing line Play Cloths. Its available at streetwear retailers like Leaders 1354 and Cmonwealth, and also online.
