When many people think of stoner clothing, they automatically default to hippie-like clothing with bright tie-dye colors, headbands, or even colorful glasses. Essentially, much of our perception regarding stoner fashion is stuck in the 60s and 70s. More recently, clothes stoners wear in movies and television has been limited to overly casual items like baggy shorts and a Baja hoodie.
While these fashion choices may still be prevalent among many people who enjoy cannabis, we’ve found that stoner fashions, like other areas of fashion, truly change with time and circumstance. As people of all walks of life show an affinity for higher-end clothing and support of the cannabis industry has been growing more widespread, stoner fashions have become more mainstream. At the same time, the cannabis industry has been breaking down social barriers and stereotypes, and cannabis consumers are more diverse than ever before. To appeal to this diverse pool of cannabis fashion consumers, top cannabis apparel brands are creating designs for cannabis supporters of every age, gender, occupation, and social standing.
