Shame. Miskeen was a thing.
where are you from?
akademics was huge in ny
Midwest, mayne....
I probably heard of it at some point, but just can't remember.
I used to wear a lot of WICA
What I Could Afford!
Timberland definitely
Avirex , vanson, racing jackets, coogi , iceberg were worn by some people..always got to remember lots of of people couldn’t afford that.. especially if you start going to certain regions.. so why you have to kinda exclude them
FUBU, Sean John, Rocawear was expected.
But the rest of that list must be in the South or Midwest. Southpole?! K Swiss?!
Chicago born and bred.
K Swiss was status symbol, south pole, ecko, umen, were wypipo shit only cuz we couldnt afford it, akademiks i didnt know know about until i mived to the east cost.
Status, was polo, and guess. Reebiok was was huge
I couldn’t afford 80% of my list. I used to make $3.50p/hr in high school. But I remember everyone else wearing them. I was a $20-30 Mecca shirt, Sean Jean or generic baggy jeans no logos with timbs or gore Tex boots or random AirMaxs type. Fresh haircut made up for everything back then.
Oh ok lol.. only thing I think I didn’t have on the list was iceberg.. was about to pull the trigger on a shirt but said fuck that and copped a bunch of other shit
Southport yeah, K Swiss must be negro Nebraska shitFUBU, Sean John, Rocawear was expected.

Boss, bear, northface
Avi , coogi and Ice?. Damn bruh you had a corporate job as a youngin. But for real though us Southern cats didn't know about those until we heard NY hip hop like Big mention them or cats from NY move down bottom and rock at school
Karl Kani and Srarter Jackets. I was the first in high school to rock the Chicago Black Hawks starter, everyone else had the Bulls
No, it started with a V
I think "Urban fashion" was the implied part
Cross Colors was the first thing that came to mind(after FUBU). I was in middle school when CC was popping. That might've been too far back for the people they polled.
What, like urban designers? If that's their criteria, why is K Swiss on there?
Tommy Hilfiger had it for a minute. Even Spike Lee had to do a parody of it in Bamboozled.
Man if you had a pair of cross colors (the soft denim) with a pair of travel foxes. You was that dude
