Today, the demand for streetwear pieces is steady as celebrities continue to release items that appeal to the younger generation, its main consumer, as long as the sneaker community remains alive and well to boot.

Below are some of the most expensive streetwear brands that sell clothes, accessories, shoes, and more at steep prices:

1. Off-White

Following the demise of its founder, Virgil Abloh, Off-White prices on the secondary markets sky-rocketed. However, the retail price remains at around PHP13,000 to PHP170,000. 

Abloh himself once shared that the luxury fabric used, the employees' efforts and Customs—among many other factors—are what makes Off-White more expensive than other brands like it.

2. Supreme

Supreme has released some of the most unusual products and yet patrons return to purchase these items. It is this rebellious quality and unique identity that makes Supreme so appealing to many. Aside from this, it is the exclusivity that encourages more people to collect different pieces from the brand.

The products range from PHP4,000 to PHP6.5 million.

3. Bape

Streetwear enthusiasts can recognise that camo pattern anywhere. The camouflage pattern is Bape’s signature design. People would definitely shell out PHP6,000 to PHP20,000 to get their hands on the brand’s well-loved pieces.

Bape has also created unique numbers from past collaborations that were truly iconic; they’ve partnered with other brands like Adidas, Kaws, and more.

4. Yeezy

Regardless if Ye stays away from the limelight or not, no one can deny that Yeezy products have shaped the way we view street style. The artist has a huge influence on fashion, making most of his pieces, especially the sneakers, one of the most coveted around the world.

If one does not count resale prices, Yeezy sneakers range from PHP10,500 to PHP27,000. Ye has always expressed how he wants Yeezys to become more accessible, which people anticipate to further affect the shoe prices.
