Editor’s Guide: Mastering the Bassike Slouch
Bassike is defined by its relaxed, anti-fit silhouette. Here is how to wear it without looking messy.
The Organic Jersey Tee
The Look: The twisted seam classic.
The Fix: These tees are designed with an asymmetric hem. Leave them untucked over slim denim or the brand’s leather pants to show off the signature “twisted” construction.
The Drop Crotch Pant
The Look: Modern utility.
The Fix: The slouchy hip needs balance. Pair with a fitted tank or tuck in the front of your shirt to define the waist. Add a sleek sandal to elevate the look from loungewear to street style.
The Japanese Denim
The Look: Premium structure.
The Fix: Bassike denim is rigid and traditional. Pair the oversized jackets with matching jeans for a “Double Denim” tuxedo look that feels very Australian cool.
Sizing Guide: Bassike Fit Profile
Bassike uses Standard Alpha Sizing (XS-XL) but fits Relaxed/Oversized.
| Size | US Size | Fit Advice |
|---|---|---|
| XS (0) | 0-2 | Relaxed |
| S (1) | 4-6 | Relaxed |
| M (2) | 8-10 | Generous |
| L (3) | 12 | Oversized |
Pro Tip: For the signature jersey t-shirts and drop-crotch pants, the fit is intentionally loose. If you prefer a closer fit, size down. For denim (which is rigid), take your true size.
