Trendy touches that totally set up the freshest sounds & cutting-edge street style — welcome to the Skeptaworld.
The ‘00s rapper is still one of the hugest contributors to the UK rap scene and we don’t need to dig up that much to conclude why his legacy will remain untouched in the history of music.
But there are a few things about Skepta that enhance his timelessness.

METCHA - Skepta - best-dressed - the rapper Skepta wearing a black leather jacket with blue leather pants and red leather gloves
Never leaving an all-respect attitude aside, top-notch tailoring and distinguished tracksuits share the spotlight with elevated leather choices.
After all, he counts with that British appeal all inspired by sportswear.
Examples? Made-in-Italy sneakers by Prada or streetwear classics such as AJ1s and all the boldest Nike retro runner collabs of the past years he could lay his hands on.
As if he actually needed Bottega Veneta to claim the title of London’s best-dressed.
Being a pro at the art of complementary looks, it’s almost like he pushed the capsule closet concept beyond.
His aesthetic is, indeed, enough to rule the streets.
Why runways are suddenly a hot spot again here.
