This TwitchCon, StockX and our partnered streamers are owning their platforms with confidence.

Unlike other forms of current culture such as film or art, Twitch enables audiences to connect with their favorite streamer in the midst of them performing or creating. This engagement creates a different level of community, one bonded together by their collected love of gaming and the mutual relationship that exists.Ā 

This year at TwitchCon in Amsterdam is special as it represents a celebration for the community. During the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, steamers took to their platforms as a means to escape from the harsh realities of the world, connecting with audiences on a more personal level. TwitchCon 2022 will allow fans to once again connect with their favorite streamers. On the flip side, streamers will get the opportunity to grow their brand image, putting their personalities and interests out to the world.

This TwitchCon, StockX Twitch streamers are Owning It ā€” showing off their individuality, personal style, and using their platform as a means of self-expression and art. These five Twitch streamers have provided StockX with their favorite fits available now on the platform ā€” a dope new way of articulating their personal swag and community building.

Ebonix

UK Twitch Ambassador Ebonix is a firm believer in owning your own image ā€” unapologetically being yourself. With passions for food, gaming, and fashion, she believes there’s nothing more fulfilling than wearing clothes that align with self-expression.Ā 

“Confidence is key and as a plus-sized woman who doesn’t always see herself or style in mainstream fashion, the hunt for outfits that not only fit right but make me feel amazing, never ends,” Ebonix said. “When you see me, I don’t need to shy away. This fit is confidence and this outfit is unapologetically me.”Ā 

For her favorite StockX fit, Ebonix chose to start with the Ivy Park adidas Super Sleep 3 Strap on feet. On body, she chose the gender neutral Ivy Park cargo sweatpants in dark green, a great compliment to the hints of green on the sneakers. Up top, she chose the adidas Ivy Park Mesh Sleeve Bodysuit in dark green/hi-res yellow to complete the uniform fit. Finishing off the uniform, Ebonix chose the adidas Ivy Park Belt Bag in yellow, a perfect contrast to dark green.

KojiĀ 

UK streamer Koji finds inspiration in fashion, art, and music ā€” viewing fashion specifically as a vehicle to express your individuality and identity. For his StockX fit, Koji went with an all-black look, demonstrating that you don’t need bright colors to stand out when you walk in a room.Ā 

“For as long as I can remember, clothes have always been a huge part of my identity,” Koji said. Often, I’ll dress in a way that expresses myself and the way I’m feeling in that momentā€¦I can’t think of a single time I’ve seen someone rock an all-black fit that didn’t look slick and confident.”Ā 

On feet, Koji picked the iconic Nike Dunk Low Next Nature in black and white, accompanied by the Supreme x Nike Arc Corduroy Cargo pants in black. Up top, he picked the Palm Angels Mock Neck Logo Oversized T-shirt from spring/summer 2022 and finished the fit with the Supreme Side Bag from spring/summer 2022.Ā
