Founded in Warsaw in 2002 by graffiti writer and rap entrepreneur Adam 'Likwid' Piechocki, Prosto is the cornerstone of Polish hip-hop streetwear. The name means 'straight' or 'simple' in Polish and the brand built itself in lockstep with the country's emerging rap scene—dressing Peja, O.S.T.R. and a generation of post-1989 youth who needed local heroes instead of imported Karl Kani. More than twenty years on, Prosto runs its own shops in Warsaw, Krakow and Poznan, and remains the most-worn label in Polish hip-hop videos.

Shop Secondhand

Archive and rare Prosto pieces mostly circulate on the resale market. Japanese sites don't ship to China — buy via a proxy like Buyee; most Western sites ship internationally or are reachable with a US/EU forwarder.
