If this summer wasn't the one that put the underrated hoodie look back on the map, no summer ever will. Carmelo Anthony, mostly known as “Hoodie Melo” nowadays, brought his famed look to Fashion Week in New York.
The New York Knicks star forward posed alongside Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen, both dressed head-to-toe on Kith gear, a popular urban brand that also serve as a retailer of other top brands.

Melo also posed next to fellow Jordan Brand athlete Russell Westbrook and draftmate LeBron James, who has seemed to also embrace the hoodie, along with his custom LeBron 15 sneakers with floral embroidery, embracing the Kith X Nike collection.

Westbrook himself sported a tucked t-shirt look, reminiscent of the 80's and early 90's — embracing his very unique sense of fashion.

This of course, was a vastly different look from what he sported a few days ago, suited up sharp in a fitted look with the classic specs to go right with it.

It's the ability of pulling off the sharpest of looks along with the most casual of them that has made Westbrook such fashion icon during the last few years, even managing to the No. 1 new release in Amazon.com's fashion photography.

From the hoodie, to floral sneakers, to pulling off the spec-less Steve Urkel in New York, these three star-caliber players have brought their own share of NBA fashion to the red carpet.
