Nah the hollister/aeropostatle/a&f era wasn't as bad as the over sized white tie,saggy jeans +forces era. Plus it didn't last nearly as long nor have as big of impact in all urban regions like the baggy clothes era did.

shyt even the ed hardy/blac label era in the later parts of the 00s wasn't as bad the baggy clothes era ...looking back at it. I cringe less at my ed hardy/blac label/trues photos than I do my oversized Ts, the two-toned du-rag out in public and baggy ass jeans photos.:snoop:

A lot of nikkas in DC/Chicago/NYC still dress like this tho

Dawg...i really dont understand why black people ever fukked with those brands even with all of their HIGHLY DOCUMENTED cases of racism with the owners and with employees. And with the models.

They was basically saying "we dont want you n*****s wearing our clothes" and black folks still wore them. :snoop:
