I've never seen a white male wearing LV or Gucci belt.

What, are you a fashion critic? Why are you concerned with what the next man is wearing?

To me, some products are purely functional.. a belt is one of them.. I don't want to hang out with people whose opinion of me would be any different whether I have on a LV belt or a $25 belt from Macy's

Plenty of rich white men wear them.

Pair it with a bad chick like Brody. :win:

It IS oddly a status symbol for black men, esp. since all you see on tv really are rappers wearing them.

Consumer Expenditure Survey conducted by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. Blacks and Hispanics spend up to 30% more than whites of comparable income on visible goods like clothing, cars and jewelry, the researchers found. This meant that, compared to white households of similar income, the typical black and Hispanic household spent $2,300 more per year on visible items. To do that, they spent less on almost all other categories except housing, and they saved less.

Poor blacks and poor whites both spend more on visible goods if they live in poor communities, because such spending gives them more status relative to others in the community. But poor blacks and poor whites living among wealthier people do not devote extra portions of income to visible expenditures, since they are too far behind to get more status from the extra spending they can afford. Moreover, the very fact of belonging to a particular group provides observers with information about one's likely income (e.g. blacks are on average poorer than whites).

Man when I started shopping in these high end stores I realize who spends the most Guwop in these stores.

Africans and Asians are probably high end stores best customers.

Those belts weren't designed with black people in mind tbh. Well to do white people wear the shyt out of louis gucci prada and all of that. It was made for them, and they are the primary purchasers of it too. They just dont make songs and brag about it. I went to a corporate retreat last year in florida and them lawyer and doctor types were swaggin like 2 chains minus the necklaces. I talked to this one guy there who was a surgeon he was playin tennis in a gucci v-neck and cargos I was messing with him about his outfit costing more than my plane ticket and he was like :youngsabo: I sleep in shyt like this bro
