People have all sorts of hobbies. Some like to draw, or hike, or play guitar. Some like to teach themselves new skills, like cooking or knitting. Me? My hobby is…a bit different. I like to track men’s street style looks.
That’s right; you heard me. What are all the cool male celebs wearing out and about? Not to red carpet events, or talk show appearances, or anything where the hand of their stylist is revealed from head to toe. I’m talking about errands, date nights, paparazzi pictures of guys scampering about New York City and Los Angeles, jetting off to who-knows-where and doing God-knows-what, wearing…well, wearing what I faithfully and dutifully track down.
This year was a big one, for big stars and big looks. Everyone from Tom Holland to A$AP Rocky to Kid Cudi went out to play, wearing everything from the most expensive of designer looks to the most up-and-coming of indie brands. The best street style looks of the year were unique, easy-breezy, and—best of all—replicable, whether with the exact item or a lookalike dupe. So instead of keeping my cards (by that, I mean my Getty Images downloads) close to my chest, I’m sharing some of the best menswear street style looks of 2022 right here—and, where to get the pieces to put them in your own closet.
A birthday is a big occasion—so it’s no wonder A$AP turned out an iconic look for his 34th. Tailoring to a T brings his Celine Homme suit to the next level.

2022 was a big year for colorful sweaters and cardis. Joe Jonas got the memo, clearly, and dressed it up even further with a thin necklace and baggy pants.

We almost prefer Shai off the court, if it means he’s bringing sleek streetwear looks with him. Pearls, leather, and a sick pair of ankle boots make this the ultimate night-out look.

There’s something about a fitted sweater and wide-legged trousers that always works, and Eddie Redmayne proves it. The British actor’s Loewe stripes stole the night in NYC.

Bieber gets playful with street style, which we love, combining luxury (a Loewe jacket) with indie (Poppy Lissiman sunglasses) with everyday (a Madewell hat). At the end of the day, it really isn’t that deep.
