Does anyone have ideas for drawing a character with a rough clothing fashion, without making them look edgy?

Depends on what you mean as rough, and the time period.

If you mean worn; mismatched/replaced buttons, fraying hems, taped glasses, scuffed but clean shoes, fraying laces.

If you mean hardworking: muddy shoes, rolled cuffs, denim, flannel, holes in pockets/knees, strapped gloves.

If you mean from the hood? Worn clothing, denim, T-shirt, loose jacket, hoodie, sneakers. Clothing to blend in, not stand out (like seriously. What do people wear in the worser area around wherever you live?)

If you want to avoid edginess, try to avoid dark colors. And excessive leather. And what about regular shoes (or even twinkle toes. That’ll definitely take the edginess down a few notches. XD). Avoid excessive hairstyles and graphic T-shirts. Also…buckles. like, how many buckles does a regular human being actually wear?
