Floss

Floss-

Floss embodies the history and appreciation of time honored tradition, regiment, and form with a forward nod to improvisation, personal style, and taste.

Floss is a term used to describe wearing something such as a suit, sneakers, or or an outfit that is pretty darn dope. Floss is the cousin of and synonymous with terms like: stunteang (thats pronounced stunt-teeeeng), goin off, splash, fresh, etc.

But floss is more personal than those generic terms because floss speaks more directly to the individual essence of that particular person. For example, I had a home boy that used to hit the masses over the head with the bow tie. That was bow tie floss. Another home girl used to hit them in the head with the 'Lo life (Polo Ralph Lauren), in other words she used to be flossy in the 'Lo.

What is it that you floss? How do you floss?

My current floss is an amalgmation of sorts.Different knink knacks that inspire me: pocket squares, socks, knit ties. Little things that help am outfit to stand out but are easily subdued.
