In the D??? :dahell: only people I don't see REALLY fukking with Polo here are the 15-21 youngins' Detroit will ALWAYS be a Polo city. Problem is nobody wants their overpriced shyt. Strictly just the Small logo shirts, tees, socks, underwear, hats boots and boat shoes. People can say what they want but if you buy REAL Polo gear their quality shyts on any of H&M, zara etc...like I said in the other thread, you just got to know where to shop. The online RL site be having MAJOR deals. :yeshrug:

Nah I was in OU 08-12 and was living in Auburn Hill and Pontiac. Just a quick freeway ride to great lakes.
And at the bolded, that's all I ever copped, still got a closet full. Put one on for a function a few months back and still fit and looked right :leon:
Ralph ain't going anywhere it's a classic brand but all I ever see now is luxury. nikkas love wasting money

Black people where?
I live in NYC and don't see brehs rocking polo anymore.
Most are either rocking street wear brands like Supreme, or affordable gear from American Eagle, Uniqlo, H&M, and Zara.

Me personally, I mostly shop at outlets now. But If I want a nice shirt, I would go to Jcrew. Get a nice shirt at Jcrew for 45, that would be 100 at the Ralph Lauren Store, and have a ugly ass tacky logo. F that :hhh:

He wanted to market his shyt to the upscale crowd exclusively and collect those nicca dollars on the low when the streets was fukkin with him. Thats what he gets....could've hired Ye to be his brand ambassador and continued eating...but no....can be affiliated with "those people":mjpls:

I copped a black Zara polo with a small skull logo on it over a year ago and people on the street still asking me where I bought it.

I spent no more than $20 on it.
