[Nicole0416_718_929_646212]

The cities that say they started everything NYC, Oakland, DC.


I personally though Polo was big in the south particularly Atlanta and Miami before anywhere else.

Your opinion doesnt count,you said that Baltimore pizza is better than new york and Chicago

Breh, Ralph Lauren is from the Bronx.

It’s a New York based fashion company.

Exactly, like RL was literally created in the fukking city. The fukk be going thru people heads

It’s funny how they would spend most of their income buying that attire while living unfavorable

We need a bay vs NY thread. These nikkas think they invented earth

We did tho

NYC stays the GOAT city.

We could rock pillow cases on our heads and make that shyt fly.

If it wasn't for project nikkas who started the greatest culture ever this very forum wouldn't even exist.

Damn we genius as fukk.

No wonder nikkas is mad and envious.

@KodeBlue RL was born and made in the Bronx and was originally made for wealthy white folks.

The article pretty much explains how it started being a trend in urban neighborhoods.

How would a brand like that be noticed by inner city black kids all the way in Atlanta and Miami?



Especially hot ass Miami.

 

[UberEatsDriver]

This is silly

NY didn’t discover Polo by any means...but to say these other places especially in those times went as crazy as nikkax did for The Lo would just be false. Polo and these guys are rereleasing stuff from 92 like PWing was an homage to the particular demo that made it pop in the first place...Brooklyn boys

Ralph Lauren was born in the Bronx!

that's what i'm saying,polo been a southern staple. besides that nobody down here in texas had heard of any lo-lifes until the internet. maybe they were influential on the east coast, but that's about it.

What does that have to do with the article? The south didn’t make it a trend so why do you feel the need to point this out?

The article literally explains how the brand went from rich/white to urban youth hands to hip hop.

I don’t know anybody who has rocked polo with the south in their minds.
