Future Graces The Cover Of GQ Magazine Most Stylish Alive Issue

Future Deemed One Of The Most Stylish Men Alive By GQ Magazine

Cici may not be rockin’ with her baby daddy right now but GQ is! The magazine put the rapper on the cover of their May issue and declared him one of the Most Stylish men alive.

Peep how they summed up the way he’s transformed your grandaddy’s hat:

If you can’t read the fine print here it is:

Wide-brimmed hats are to the slurring, swerving Atlanta rapper born Nayvadius Wilburn what white suits are to Tom Wolfe: an instantly recognizable daily uniform. Look closely at these three and you’ll notice they’re all the same basic style. They’ve got the teardrop crown of a traditional fedora, and the brims have an Outback flair. “They were definitely considered an old guy’s hat until Future started wearing them,” says Marc Williamson, proprietor of FlameKeepers Hat Club in Harlem. “Now we get plenty of calls from guys wanting the ‘Future hat.’ ” That’s because context is everything. Future wears his geezer hats like a hipster, turning them into streetwear. “It’s a look that’s enhanced by just a leather jacket or a T-shirt,” Williamson says. “And that’s how Future gets down.”

Just an FYI, Future is one of only five black men who made GQ’s list this year (out of 13) hit the flip to see who the others are.
