Street Wear

Street wear is defined as west coast skateboarding styles. A lot of street wear companies are based out of the west coast and focus on the styles a classic skateboarder would wear. This includes fitted pants, normally classic vans, screen printed large tees, and flat billed hats. Never get street wear confused with hipsters, this is a totally different culture than skin tight pants and parliaments cigarettes. Street wear is very underground and the clothing you see that comes out of these companies are all DIY and kids just creating shirts for their friends to wear. East coast street wear is a bit different but not as popular as it is in the west coast. Another part of street wear culture is Fixed Gear bikes and definitely a good beer.

Street Smart

A common trait for many people, especially males, that usually grew up either in the inner city or hardworking rural environment. Average intelligence, common sense, lack of interest in reading, ability to fix most anything without needing an instruction manual, skill at handling difficult people, and a refreshing lack of personal warmth are typical traits. People who lack street smarts usually grew up or live in the suburbs, work a white collar job, regular churchgoers, stay in their personal protective cocoon, shelter their kids, and hire people to fix their things.

street smarts

one who is knowledgible at some art of illegal activity. understands the code and conduct held within a certain crime family/ies.

the term came from the common street hoodlum who knows how to succeed in areas that don't necessaryly need a formal education to get ahead in life.

for instance a group(crew) of criminals enterprise at trafficing and selling narcotics. they need some type of illegal practice for processing, smuggling, marketing and laundering money for their underground buisness. since the buisness is illegal, they set rules and regulations to keep the buisness from toppling. in doing so they from a "family" to keep outsiders from interfering and make their own checks and balances within their own "family" inorder to get rid of any potential rogue members; some of the codes that one would hold is that they:
* did not cooperate with authorities
* maintained self-control in the face of adversity
* carried out vendettas to avenge any slight suffering by his family(gang)
* did not forgive or forget
* maintained his demeanor within his ranking in a criminal hierarchy

it could be as petty like knowning how to card a door open, start a car without keys to a professional con-artist, a hit man, loan shark, ect...

carlo gambino had street smarts. that's why he was known in his neighborhood as a wiseguy.
