In a year fuelled by nostalgia (hello, return of Bennifer and Friends), Gen Z has taken social media by storm with its biggest comeback to-date: Y2K fashion and the return of Gap’s Arch Logo Hoodie.
Amidst all the mom jeans and dad sneakers, you may remember a certain viral TikTok from January that declared the iconic Gap hoodie the trend of 2021. The vintage brown hoodie that spurred the social media storm drew up to $300 on resale sites, with TikTok’s #gaphoodie feed creating more than 5.8M views. This summer, Gap will give the people what they want and drop a limited-issue release of the iconic brown logo hoodie made famous on TikTok (yes, that one) available for order online here ($70).
