First off Hilfiger not wanting black people to wear his clothes was a myth
Second Jordan is really good friends with Barkley, Oakley etc. Stop with that bullshyt.

Myth :stopitslime:

Here's a nice myth for you...

Tommy Hilfiger Addresses Those Racist Rumors From 1996 One More Time | Fashionista

If you google this story, you see nothing but the rewriting of history.
A bunch of articles from him recently speaking on it.
Says the rumor came out in 2002. He didn't say a single thing about it til 2007 :rudy:
He also lets it slip that while he didn't like the rumors, his business actually DOUBLED during the allegations. Doubled you say :leon:

So regardless of if he said it or not (which I'm fairly certain he did) he say his business boom for it. And chose to not even speak on it cuz he saw how white ppl out in the world approved.

You know who else said as much, and his business IMPROVED? Timberlands of course :hula:
Maybe it was all a ploy? Jay-Z says a lot of stuff... ppl listen. Companies know this. As long as they know sales would then pick up? Think about it :ohhh:

All I know is all this stuff is bigger than Nino Brown...

One of the reasons why I cop online. You just have to know where you can & can't wear certain shyt because you will be getting relieved of your property.

one thing you can't blame on white folks either

on the contrary my brotha. Jordan is a part of Nike, Nike is owned by a white man. Nike could lower prices and issue more shoes out but they'd rather see black folk get trampled, pepper sprayed, and robbed and killed over silly shoes :smugbiden:

It was 29 degrees here yesterday morning and ppl were lined up outside the mall at 6am.

I saw a dude today walking aroudn with a pair on though. This dude was walking around in a basic hoody and shorts....I noticed the shoes only b/c I was looking at him. But helll, I remember when they came out the 1st go round, so it's nothing special. Point is, they dont even standout. Nobody knows these shoes cost $200+ except for a few nikkas and mexicans.

I could get a whole new outfit and get complimented on it for the price of a pair of J's.

I'd rather rock the Chinese versions. If you dress decently, keep urself groomed, people will automatically think they're real.
