About Terrace Casual Sneaker
Terrace and Casual - two terms that stand for a very special subculture in the sneaker scene like no other. They are closely linked to special sneaker models such as the adidas Trimm Trab, which have been the shoes of choice for casuals, a grouping within the soccer scene in Great Britain, since the 1980s at the latest. The term Terrace can be derived from the standing areas in the stadiums where the fashion style originated. Casuals were fans who paid particular attention to their look and appearance when they went to the stadium. So it's no wonder that casuals wore designer clothes from various brands, and their sneakers in particular were meant to project a fashionable image. That this subculture had a great influence can still be seen today, because the term "Trabs" is still used in regions around Liverpool to represent sneakers.
Yet not only the Trimm Trab was and is a Terrace casual sneaker from adidas that is in great demand - the well-known adidas Stan Smith and the adidas Gazelle also enjoy huge demand. Especially the adidas Gazelle was always present within the 80s casual Terrace Wear and also in the 90s with the emergence of Brit Pop fully in trend.
Terrace fashion in modern menswear
Terrace Fashion has been transitioning from subculture to mainstream for quite some time now. Many designer brands that were associated with this culture at the time no longer are, or at least not as strongly today. This is partly due to the fact that Terrace Fashion has broken away from its roots as a sports subculture and has become more and more of a lifestyle. However, adidas in particular still has a strong standing in the casual culture sector, but it is not the only brand that is worn. Because Reebok Classics, New Balance, Puma & Co. have their justified following as well.
What makes up the Terrace/Casual look
In addition to the sneakers, which are an important distinguishing feature, the rest of the outfit is of course also crucial for "the" Terrace Casual Look. Casuals usually integrate the following elements into their style:
- Trench Coat
- Hooded Jacket
- Track Jacket
