The 'Bloke Core' Phenomena

The 'Bloke Core' Phenomena

Born by Brandon Huntly on TikTok in December 2021, the Bloke Core trend is used to describe a particular aesthetic mood where the look is composed of a vintage football shirt, a pair of jeans and sneakers. The term “bloke” is like the American “bro,” or the South African term “brah” except it’s more common in places like the U.K., Ireland and Australia. Much like a bro, a bloke is a masculine male archetype. In 2022, bloke core became the hottest fashion trend among Gen Z’s young men.

This phenomena was circulating on TikTok and Instagram through a hashtag and very quickly, was picked up by celebrities. It has since evolved into an actual term used to categorize and describe athletic apparel or soccer street style and is no longer limited to ‘blokes’. Well-known fashionistas like Kim Kardashian, Bella Hadid and Rihanna have been spotted rocking bloke core and even Drake, one of the biggest hip-hop artists of our generation has also been known to partake in bloke core.

Do we have your attention? Indulge your curiosity with this curated collection of 10 bloke-core inspired pieces that effortlessly channel the essence of the blokes, ensuring you'll embody their distinctive style in no time.
