DRUG RUG CULTURE

Drug rugs are the cultural clothing wear of Mexican Heritage.  Also known as a Baja hoodie, it found popularity in Baja California in 1970s. The American Surfers on their surfing trips bought them from shops around the beaches due to cool weather. Originating from thick Mexican Blankets called ‘Jerga’, Drug rugs were worn traditionally by surfers and skaters in the late 80's.

As the popularity grew in America, the drugrug came to be known as a stoner hoodie. Its name was associated with the Drug culture in America, thus the name ‘Drug Rug’. Baja jackets are also very in with the Hippies to this day. Hippie clothes often have a vintage Mexico feel with Baja blanket like material. Thus, Baja clothing is often referred with Hippies, Surfers and Stoners.

Drug rug sweaters are worn by some stoners in the music and fashion industry and their followers including the likes of Wiz Khalifa, Will Smith and Dave Mathews. Now days, it is a common thing to wear a Baja hoodie in daily life, but still some people will refer to the person as a drug user. It is also a hot wear in Film Industry. Many actors wore it in a role to depict their characters who were drug addicts. Sean Penn wore it for his film “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”. Will Smith wore one in Hitchcock.

Hippies are mostly attracted to Baja hoodies and rug wear as they think of it as an icon of being cool. Thus the name hippie rug has also been given to these cute hoodies. Hippie clothes are trending and the Baja pullovers are considered to be the fashion trend for this decade. The trend for Hippie Baja Costumes is also increasing in the society. Due to this, the simple Baja sweatshirts are now being customized into zippers and ponchos.
