When I was in high school it was strictly about Ralph Lauren. It was like a ‘dope-boy’ aesthetic; that was how you would tell who was who. If you had the Polo chino jacket, everyone would know that you spent like $195 on it. Or if you had the snow beach sweater, everyone knew you spent $350 on it. So it was a status thing.
Pusha T on Polo. In this interview, he also says his favorite tshirts come from Uniqlo. (He gets ‘em for cheap.)
