:ohhh:Im 26 and I never knew FUBU was hundreds of dollars. I always thought it was cheap and people used to get clowned for wearing it. When did it fall off?
If memory serves me right, early 2003 was when it became corny and a walking punchline.
That’s when it was in the discount stores, Marshall’s, Ross, and in the Philly area Forman Mills.
That’s when the corny white boys, Malibu most Wanted ass niccas started wearing it.

Damn... Eastbay was selling all types of Jordans for $99. :pachaha:

Jordan Brand was pretty much a non factor in them days. Retros wasn't really in style and the current models were trash with the exception of the 17s. Those had some buzz with the briefcase (a few people had them 16s too). Jordan didnt really start pickin up steam until the Spizikes dropped. I hate to say it but its true.

Damn... Nike have always been milking the hell out of the Jordan name. They got all types of Jordan shoes, Boots, dress shoes, slippers ect.. :russ:

It's crazy to think how much money Nike has made from the Jordan name or logo on their shoes. What percentage of all that money went back to Michael Jordan?
