Urban streetwear started from skateboarding in the 1980′s and was influenced by skatewear before being adopted as urban fashion worldwide. Nike dominated the urban trainer and sneaker market in the 1980′s and 1990′s taken the number one spot from rivals Adidas. As the success grew more clothing brands attached themselves to the streetwear and urban clothing scene. Many urban artist wear their favourite streetwear brands which has seen that brand popularity gain huge success. In 1990 Snoop Dogg was seen wearing a Tommy Hilfiger sweatshirt during an apperance on the Saturday Night Live show, this saw the sweatshirt sell out the next day. Urban clothing is now a global culture with hip hop artists bring out their own variance of urban fashion. Example of the urban artists that have developed their clothing brands are Wu-Tang Clan (Wu-Wear), Russell Simmons (Phat Farm), Kimora Lee Simmons (Baby Phat), Diddy (Sean John), TI (AKOO), Nelly (Apple Bottom Jeans), Damon Dash and Jay-Z (Rocawear), 50 Cent (G-Unit Clothing), Eminem (Shady Limited), 2Pac (Makaveli) and OutKast (OutKast Clothing). The most recent artist to bring out their own fashion line is Kayne West who has designed his own decorative scarves which he has named Risque Scarves.
The skater scene has also mixed in with hip hop fashion and has seen an explosion of new urban clothing brands coming through.
