No right off that poor Asian guy's store, chimp.
If we shave a chimp that has the same texture hair as white people, you would find that the chimp's skin is white. A chimp looks more like a big eared white man than anything else but since I have to be a monkey call me a gorilla because I'll kick your @ss! Ha!

Your favorite white actress probably has a weave on right now. White women wear weaves too.

"Ghetto"? I understand the counterfeit caper but adding ghetto to it ridicules poverty. That's not right. I see the ones wearing knockoffs because that's all they can afford. Who am I to judge? That's not my problem with this stupid thread. My problem is racist thinking that a clothing line is specifically for one race of people (white) and that's it and I know for a fact that Black fashion is the motor to pop fashion and we set the trends. Not all of us but the ones that have closets like mine! I may not be rich but I stay fly!

I'n a Black woman and I happen to LOVE NASCAR and attend many races at the Chicagoland Speedway with my husband and I also like hockey. Surely, we are in the minority in attendance but hey, we love the sport! We are working class African Americans. I have a 6 year old that wants to play Ice Hockey. Certainly unusual but I'm not going to deny her that opportunity because of her color or because people think blacks look "silly" doing that. Not really seeing anything too ridiculous about that.

We also wear whatever we want if we like it. To us it is not a black style or a white style when it comes to my money. It is MY STYLE and what I like....period.

Please protect her because many injuries can occur for people that play ice hockey from fractures, loss of teeth, etc.

People wear whatever they want to. Same as where one chooses to eat. Clothes do not make a person; people make the clothes. If a African American (Lebanese, Japanese, Korean, Celtic, Dominican, Russian etc.) wants to wear any aforementioned brands of clothing then they can. Will Ralph Lauren come knock on his consumers door and say "Hey, you are not my intended audience. Dont wear this!" No. Are retail stores and outlets going to refuse to sell to specific ethnicities? No.
Wear what you want to. Be who you want to. Just stop imposing on others delights.

Will blacks let us have something without messing it up for once?
It really is not the problem of them wearing it as it is the trends that are set with those brands. I used to love Polo, but now Polo has become afro-centric and markets the black man. When brands do this, their clothes begin to look odd, multi-colors, frayed edges, odd designs on pants legs, etc...
where I'm from blacks don't wear those white labels like american eagle and abercrombie you would be considered a joke. However they do wear polo but that's like a universal thing. What is it to you anyway. for your info what black people do you know wear fubu and coogi please let me know, because those labels are a complete NO.

Umm Polo is not a white brand, a good number of blacks wear polo. And why does it matter why blacks wear these brands? It's their preference. Why do white people wear skinny jeans with cowboy boots? because it's their preference.
