The clothing people wear does not have anything to do as to whether they are a 'wigger' or not. I wear Southpole clothing. Granted, it's only the jeans I buy (cuhz they are the only things that are worth buying from that brand). People would swear that I'm white, even though I am moderatly tanned because of my Middle Eastern backround, I'm Iranian. Does it make me a wigger that I wear Southpole clothing?

Do I come across as a wigger in this (Cb)? I understand that wearing baggy clothing can make a guy look imposing. Shit, I look imposing enough wearing clothing like AE (which I only rarely wear because I don't think I look good in it).

I think the persons personality has far more to do with the said persons ''wigger-ness'' haha. If a white guy runs up to you and greets you with a ''sup nigga'' or a ''whats good wit ya blood'' then yeah, my first inclination is to treat him like a fake ass wigger.

Also, I can understand peoples dressing if they have lived in relatively rough places. I've lived in Los Angeles and San Jose, two pretty rough places to live. I'm FAR better off now, living in a quiet city where not much happens. But I think the white guy who's living in let's say Oakland has far more right to wear anything he wants and to front like he wants than the average white boy living in Pleasanton.

I understand where people can come from thinking that if a white guy is wearing ecko/southpole/roca wear or whatever the hell it is, that guy is branded a wigger. But hey, get to know the guy first and you'll find that some people can be completely different than yuo perceive at first.

Yeah...I don't talk like this at all in person. But I definatly don't say wassup with a ''wats good wit ya blood''. I got more black friends than white, I don't know why, prolly jus cuhz of where I've lived in my past, I can relate to them more - because most of them aren't from here either, majority come from Oakland, Hayward, philly, or san jo

You're ignorant and innacurate.

Clothing does not brand people.

Heh. Shit, I wear South Pole, LRG, Enyce, and Ecko. I am not black. If you think I'm a wannabe, you can surely lick my ass.

I don't mean this in any racist way... But some brands are just marketed to certain groups.

Do you think that Southpole is an African American brand? I heard it was... but then I've also seen nonAfrican American people wearing it. Does that make them wiggers?


Why does it matter? Southpole is lame anyways. Is there a brand that doesen't target a certain group of people? It's how they make sales, and there's nothing wrong with that. The reason why they do it is because they know that group of people are more likely to purchase their merchandise.

Lol. I can see where it can come off as looking like sarcasm. But no, it wasn't.

*shrugs* At my school, it's either the asian or the hispanics who wear it. There's no African American kids at our school. Umm... well, the people who wear them aren't "wiggers." I have to admit though, most of them are wanabes. ermm.gif

It's not a store, it's a brand of clothing. They sell it at depertment stores like Robinson's May or JCPenny.

You mean like Enyce, Ecko, Fubu, and Phatfarm...
and how they're supposedly an African American brand?

And how Aero, Abercrombie, AE, Hollister and them are supposed to be for whites?

I know what you mean.

i only agree with fubu. fubu is an african american brand or at least started out as one. For Us, By Us

QUOTE(mai_z @ Feb 4 2005, 9:59 PM) *
I've never heard of Southpole, but most brands are marketed towards a certain style, rather than a certain race. Generally you see people of different races dressing to different styles.

i agree, brands are marketed toward certain types of people, not by their race.
