Easy DIY Run-DMC Costume Guide
One of the most influential hip-hop groups in history, Run-DMC originated in the U.S. It was founded in 1981 by Joseph Simmons, Darryl McDaniels, and Jason Mizell. Run-DMC was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by Eminem in 2009, becoming just one of three hip-hop groups to do so. They were also nominated for a Grammy Award, the first hip-hop group to earn multiple platinum certificates, and played on MTV for the first time. It is for this reason that Run-DMC is still popular today.
To dress like Run-DMC, you will need a black Adidas track top with matching black Adidas track bottoms and Adidas Original sneakers, which are the constant footwear of the hip-hop trio. Then, accessorize yourself with a large gold chain necklace and oversized glasses to create a hip-hop look. Finally, you will need the iconic bucket hat to add the finishing touch to your Run-DMC costume.
