Because people have different taste in fashion and are familiar with a certain prestige carried with a brand.

I'll rock anything, any brand, from any country as long as it looks good and for a reasonable price. Which means lot of these European brands are out the equation. But if I get the first chance to lease or buy a new German and Italian engineered car, I will.

My reasons are, Western culture is appropriated from abroad...which is why the lifestyle and modern world is attributed to "them". Also Kente, is West African, what if you're from East Africa? Or not from Africa at all. I also believe some designs are tribe specific.
I feel like Black Americans should improve on being what we are, Black Americans...be pioneers at other things and own it. Like Hip-Hop for instance.
Because they are more visible. Got three pairs of shoes done by a Ghanaian entrepreneur that would last for a lifetime with that great leather. The reason why African businesses like that don't thrive is due to lack of capital and infrastructure but the resources are there whether it be quality leather to make shoes or textile material to make clothes.
