Throw back jerseys, matching chucks/airforce1s/phatfarms, /fitted caps, etc...this whole new style of "black fashion":

girls, do you really find these attractice on guys? guys...do you really think they look tight?

all this new "trendy" black fashion looks incredibly stupid to me...i'd wear a tie inside my pink shirt with suspenders before i'd put that stuff on..but why am i the only one who sees this?

dont get me wrong...i think a nice fitted jersey iis aite..but ppl go overboard , wearing huge ones with huge matching hats, matching shoes, etc....

ebunoluwa · 04-06-2004, 02:33 PM

i forgot to add grills in the mouth...or 'mouf'...i see more n more guys doing it...is it workin for them? girls, do you like this?

ROTFLMAO!

Personally, I'm not attracted to throwbacks, gold teeth, multiple chains, big earings etc on guys. Plus a beret/kangol or pageboy hat is more attractive to me anyday over a trucker/baseball hat, unless its on a white guy.
Give me a guy in a clean fade, button up shirt, sleeves folded back, flying over dockers/loose fit jeans and sandals/shoes and I'm good! even if hes not cute, it just looks clean!
I prefer clean, crisp t-shirts anyday over vintage throwbacks.
But that's just me.

mmmm 'Berry!

depends on who has d 'fit on

pebbles · 04-07-2004, 05:36 PM

Nah, I hate those attires. Makes me sound snobish atimes but I can hardly find a guy attractive in those no matter how good looking he is. Main reason I'm thinking of moving back to Europe.

cameroon · 04-08-2004, 02:44 AM

personaly i can't stand it. The loud colors the ugly jerseys everywhere i mean damn why can't guys ever make a real effort at looking nice. i hate it! I hate it! would rather see a black man in a suit or relaxed kaki's!

soulbrotha · 04-08-2004, 05:08 AM

Yes, I love wearing throwbacks, retro bball shoes and fitted hats. I don't really like to match, I prefer blending colors.

Molei · 04-19-2004, 09:38 AM

i personally think sandals on dudes is very tacky.

and guys with berets? whoa. never seen that before. lol...whats a pageboy?

Throwbacks are quite thrown (excuse the pun), i dont fancy it much either. But it could be nice. Depends on whos rocking it as zee said.
I prefer the more grown urban look anyway. I am a sucker for a guy in timbs, Thats the strangest fetish i have.
I love men with hair so i'd prefer the hair not to be covered up in durags or hats.

Around here, only the young kats rock the throwbacks, the kats still in high school or the grimey newark kats that wear them urrrghhh long tees up to their knees (i hate that look).

It has died down for the most part over here.
