some say because they didnt keep up with the fashion evolution, but Pelle Pelle did, and they flopped too.

I know. but Pelle Pelle kept up with the fashion world. They had some slick shyt, and they flopped too.

Looking at the Fubu site (now called FB legacy), they appear to be with the times tho.

why

 

[VertigoKnight]

FUBU always looked tacky.

Probably cause the owner was one of those coli type black people that assumes white people play fair, and didn't plan a contingency for sabotage...

Or maybe cause the aesthetic of the time transitioned and the owner didn't adapt

Or both, plus a bunch of something elses

Cause big ass letters of your brand is tacky as hell. On top of it catering to teens instead of adults 25 and above. Also, the slim clothing era came in 2006 and baggy clothes were

If the focused on that and not on tacky trendy shyt, they would had a better shot. If they were making 3 piece suits and mastering that art, they would have dominated for a lot longer. The problem with the late 90s/early 00s clothes were the fact that the designers thought the buyers were going to stay in high school forever.
