What kicks you been rocking this summer?

[therealjondoe]

Man. I used to want to be on Bad Boys so bad lol
I had the t-shirt with the big logo senior year

 

[tallblacknyc]

or sometimes w/ big ass cuffs @ the bottom

cuff so thick i could push a nig off a boat in the middle of the ocean and them shits would become a life raft type cuff...nigs could climb down houses escaping fires with them boy scout cuffs

 

[LSN]

I went to college in the early to mid 00's with hella DC/PG/Virgina ni99as, so Mainman is spot-on referring to the sneakers they wore, but the rest of their outfits would be trash as hell.

A black T-shirt with a hood attached to it, with a Ninja Turtle headband on. We used to have jokes .

ya I went to hampton in the early 90s...dudes I was cool w/ was from BK NJ or DC so it's all love but we all used to joke each other hard tho

 

[tallblacknyc]

true.
cuz 5x tall tees, fake evisu jeans & scuffed sb's was the fly shit.

tee shirts were under shirts in the 90's..u better have some words/design on your shirts or some type of buttons..t-shirt under ur real shirt..that 5x shit came in the 2000's during the twilight zone era of fashion

Saab is how to pronounce it,it's not spelt that way and I've never seen it no where else but in DC.

NYC is still the fashion capital,most will and forever will be playing catch up.That's a fact.

This summer has been air max 93's,95's,98's,new balances and my favorite and most worn Nike Slides

 

[A to Dah K]

[largebillsonlyplease]

The oversize era is the funniest thing to look back on
I know it was some fat ppl mad as fuck all the size 40 jeans and xxxl shirts were sold out but the skinny shit was on the shelf

 

[therealjondoe]

[tallblacknyc]

We finally get to the meat and potatoes of your frustration, you have NY envy... figures





Son, on that note I'm done. You're fucking delusional and don't know what you're talking about. You say some wild shit in the Sneaker thread, but that just took the cake. Even people who don't wear Jordans would call bullshit on that



Guy just said Jordans weren't a fashion statement and not hard to get, THAT made me laugh! I can't, in good conscience, continue this discussion with someone so out of touch with reality

lol how did i miss this..nig said jordan's wasn't hard to get lmao and they weren't a fashion statement..game over

 

[Dr. Truth]

Y'all turn all sneaker threads to a comedy roast. lmao

 

[A to Dah K]

Them pencil pocket guess jeans >>>

Then the carpenter joints came with the square guess tag

 

[Dr. Truth]

by that time, everybody was starting to rock the same shit.


1st place we agree.

nautica navy blue and the grey was the best out.

Naw. polo. I got 4 of these suits.

 

[therealjondoe]

back then i loved the nautica ones way better.

polo is so legit that i have a few polo shirts and jackets from high school that i gave my exgirls brother including a teddybear tshirt that i never rocked. the young boy is on the ralph vintage shit which makes me feel old but its crazy that the stuff held up all that time without much fading or anything...

these days it's nike tech fleece for sweats for me but a polo hoodie is always gonna be a classic across the globe.

The older polo even Ralph Lauren regular joints held up so lovely

No doubt, Polo will never go out. There are only a few timeless fashion brands. Polo, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Versace.

nautica had more variety as far as sweats, plus them shits seems longer and baggy..they were cut for black people

 

[Z MONSTER]

[Black A. Camus]

I'm not a sneaker head, but, fuck it, I'm bored. When I'm off work, I'm in jeans, or cargo shorts, and a v-neck t-shirt. I rock these Timberlands under my boot cut jeans.

I wear these sandals with cargo shorts.
