The ever changing trend of Shibuya men

Trendy young men in Shibuya usually means dyed blond/brown hair with tanned skin. They were called the Gyaru-o, or “gal men” because they look a whole lot like the girls with the same look…however today, the trend has changed to a new style called onii-kei, literally translate to “older brother” look. Why gyaru-o men tend to dress down like the surfer attire or the casual sporting attire (i.e. the jock style in US) the onii-kei looks is a slick, sexy, flamboyant and a more clean shaven look. Their dress code is characterized by white tailored jackets, low-necked tank tops, imported jeans, and pointed leather shoes.

In a world where women’s fashion dominates, it’s hard to find pictures of these men in the onii-kei fashion sense. But, being the nice blogger who takes into consideration of her readers’ needs, I looked high and low and came up with some :)

This is what The Corner have for Onii-kei fashion:
