Swag is something that can be defined in many ways. It can be as perceived as physical, the types of clothes that people wear because we all have our own unique style. Its what sets us apart, its out own unique look. No two peoples swag are the same. This ties into their personality, its someone who does their own thing. Has passion, ambition, and drive to do something unique and march to the beat of their own drum. That, is swag. – Nick P
