I would rather we use the attention we can draw towards more damaging and systemic issues. White people looking at a white person jacking our style and going "wow, never seen that before!" is gonna happen until time stops
NFL wife gets licensing deal for custom-designed merch, and...
- Thread starter hood b. goode
- Start date
They must not know Don C did this over a decade ago with Just Don plus he has NFL, NBA, and MLB licensing
He got on because he was in Kanye's circle and had rappers wearing his hats. Then he went on to get deals with Levis, Jordan Brand, Mitchell & Ness, and a position with the Chicago Bulls. The point is that having access to stars gives you an easier path to get put on. If Don C and this woman were nobodies it's an extremely slim chance they're getting licenses.

So they're pissed that a corporation in a capitalist market seized on an opportunity to make even more money......got itPeople are pissed because the NFL is usuallytowards people that make their own custom merchandise
But they're letting her do this since Taylor Swift

Can’t believe black people still support the NFL like this.
moreso because there's a long, established history of corporations punishing folks who were innovators, only to turn around and capitalize on a similar opportunity down the road, when it fits their timeline and semantics (aka... when they understand the value).
dapper dan is a prominent example. even if louis vuitton made it right decades later.
the way the NFL outlawed custom cleats until after they attached it to a marketing initiative is another.
shyt... look at the history of the so-called king of rock and roll.
we define culture. so when our influence gets remixed or serves as the template for someone else's glow-up... yeah.
fukk them Niners says this Cowboys fanThe biggest lesson everyone should take from this, is that the Niners are hoes and fukk everyone who love them.
But that's their right to do so if you're using their IP. Especially if you're getting money and fame off of it without giving them a cut of it. The Elvis thing is something totally different but those other examples are just common business practice. If you just let people use your stuff for whatever it devalues your brand. You can't navigate business with feelings. That's how you end up out of business

beyonce def has had moments with custom sports gear (and didn't need a man involved) ... and clearly has established fashion endeavors. they could have easily gave her and her designers/colleagues ... or even other designers some business if they wanted to attract more female customers
they missed the moment and other apparel companies picked up on it
while the nba just sticks to trash baby doll tees and pink color ways lol

this point is useless unless you compare it to the audience of the nba. nice try tho
even with men... its a lot of
buying jerseys lolWe need to raise our standards if cutting up sports merch is black culture. Of course they don’t fukk with us
Victoria’s Secret’s PINK line used to make cute NFL sweatshirts. I think they now just focus on college sports. This lady getting a branding deal doesn’t necessarily cancel out other women from getting one. But of course opportunity and capital are the biggest barriers for most.
But I think there’s more opportunity for sports apparel aimed at women. Especially because this line will probably be pricey and unaffordable for most women anyway.
Also- a lot of people would benefit from getting off of twitter. It’s a cesspool of people looking to be inflammatory or looking to be offended.
