those were NEVER hot....where were ur Ballys?
Bally's predated troops, prehistorically.
Troop ushered in the brand frenzy for kicks from lotto to diadora.
Expose you don't know what you talembout, breh's.
Troop is who took the mcM/Gucci suit look to the next level.
they were the first nation wide dope urban brand.
nikka shut up,....
nikkaz wouldn't even know how to style a coat if not for troop.

troop was how everybody not in ny, got fresh according to what was a hood urban actual brand and aesthetic.
yes, the shoes were glued.
yeah people hate on the jackets, now.
yet and still troop killed't the land and that is a fact.
to, the point regular non-culturized nikkaz developed the whole hood dress appeal and aesthetic off of troop.
that was the first universal hood look, across anywhere that is still relevant to this day.
according to rocking ill outerwear.
troop is that beginning for real in general.
it is no way to deny that company that.
troop, was the first full luxury dope boi uniform gear before gear was a relevant reoccurring term.
troop created the idea of gear, to the common hood nikka as a whole brand or actual line dedicated to that.
it was the first accepted global hood brand.
