[00:02:37] Speaker B: So I stuck strictly nineties with mine. My number five was the one pant leg up. [00:02:45] Speaker A: Okay, ll. [00:02:46] Speaker B: Yeah, ll bought that. I wanna say he did that recently. [00:02:50] Speaker A: He did. It was. But he been wearing bell bottoms recently. [00:02:56] Speaker B: Yeah, I mean, he was born in the sixties, though. [00:02:59] Speaker A: Nah, he been, you know, the wide leg pants all the way down. Yeah, that fashion. He been wearing that a lot. [00:03:07] Speaker B: Oh, the new shit. [00:03:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. I think he kind of did a one leg with one of them. Yeah. [00:03:13] Speaker B: Yeah, that one leg. Especially with the sweatpants. Niggas was killing that. [00:03:16] Speaker A: Now, you can still do it on sweatpants. You still could pull it off. [00:03:20] Speaker B: I know somebody who did it recently with one leg up. And we was clowning that nigga behind the scenes. [00:03:24] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:24] Speaker B: Yeah. He had the one leg up. But, you know, that was one that, you know, a lot of the fashions we did back in the day was ridiculous. And that's one of them. The one pant leg up was ridiculous. [00:03:35] Speaker A: If you think about it. Yeah, you're right. It was ridiculous if you think about it. [00:03:38] Speaker B: My number one is the most ridiculous when you go back and look at it. But we'll talk about that when we get to it. [00:03:44] Speaker A: What's your number four track back to nineties? Carhartt. [00:03:51] Speaker B: Carhartt hoodies looking like you was going to work. [00:03:55] Speaker A: Exactly. Exactly. Tretch made it. Now, I'm not gonna say just tretch. Tretch made it super popular. [00:04:02] Speaker B: Cause. Yeah. Cause they was the big group back then. [00:04:06] Speaker A: Yeah. All nineties rappers had, you know, thick hoodies, construction timbs. [00:04:14] Speaker B: Mm hmm. [00:04:14] Speaker A: But Carhartt was big at one time. If you look at the movie juice, I think they definitely got Carhartt hoodies on and Juice Carhartt jacket with the hoodie underneath. [00:04:27] Speaker B: Carhartt is a good jacket, the coat, especially if you. I got one, but I got it cause of a job I had. And that was shit, man. You throw a hoodie up on under that. No cold getting in there. [00:04:40] Speaker A: You're right. [00:04:41] Speaker B: Ain't no cold getting in there. [00:04:42] Speaker A: Yeah, that was my shit. [00:04:44] Speaker B: So if you live in the city and you get you a car hod, you good. [00:04:48] Speaker A: My whole high school years was like that. That's what that looked like. [00:04:51] Speaker B: Carhartt with the hoodie up under. Carhartt with the hoodie and the timbs. [00:04:54] Speaker A: We call it the cone hat hoodies. Cause they were bigger at the time. Thick. Hell, yeah. Those shits right there. [00:05:01] Speaker B: My number four is, again, we look ridiculous athletic apparel, but specifically with wristbands and headbands. [00:05:13] Speaker A: Word. [00:05:13] Speaker B: When you not playing a sport. [00:05:15] Speaker A: Yeah, you right about that. [00:05:16] Speaker B: Niggas just got wristbands on. Headbands on. And they going to the mall with the flailing durag on top of the. Underneath the headband. [00:05:26] Speaker A: Yeah, I think the durag and the. [00:05:29] Speaker B: You know, wrist bands on method man used to do that. The same person used to wear wristbands and headbands used to wear the long sleeve tee up under the short sleeve tee. I hate that look. I hate that look. And the wristband era hit the apex. And people was talking about this recently when Ron artest came with the double. It was like a headband, but then it, like, crossed over the top. [00:05:57] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:05:58] Speaker B: NBA was like, nah, we not fucking with that. No, you can't wear that on the court. [00:06:02] Speaker A: So, wait, the NBA said he couldn't wear it. [00:06:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Cause it was like a regular headband. [00:06:05] Speaker A: Yeah. And he had another one, but it. [00:06:07] Speaker B: Like, crossed over the top. [00:06:08] Speaker A: Yeah, they were crisscrossing. [00:06:09] Speaker B: Yeah, it was criss cross headband. Yeah. It was like, nah, you can't do no. [00:06:12] Speaker A: Oh, word. [00:06:13] Speaker B: No. But it was built into one. It wasn't like two that you crisscross. It was one that go around, and then it came from the back to the top, like. [00:06:21] Speaker A: That's crazy. [00:06:22] Speaker B: Yeah, it was like, nah, you can't do that. So that was the end of the headband era, you know, as far as wearing it for fashion now. Niggas still warm, like, playing the sport like LeBron was. I don't think he wear the headband no more. Like, Carmelo wore the headband playing ball, but niggas was wearing wristbands to the club. Like, you know, I played baseball. I couldn't get no Nike wristbands. Cause niggas got em on at fucking Millennium club and shit. [00:06:45] Speaker A: And you know what? That wristband era, I think they went together with the jerseys. [00:06:51] Speaker B: The Jersey era, late nineties. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Jersey era is long, but it got ridiculous around the end of two thousands. Like, the early two thousands. That's when the Jersey era got ridiculous. [00:07:03] Speaker A: I think your boy messed it up. Who, Jay Z? [00:07:07] Speaker B: Oh, he did? The Jersey era. [00:07:09] Speaker A: It was over after that. [00:07:10] Speaker B: Yeah, but it came back. It's back now, though. [00:07:12] Speaker A: It is. Yeah. [00:07:12] Speaker B: Niggas wear jerseys now, but they wear them like they ain't big like that. They like wearing more fitted. [00:07:17] Speaker A: Oh, I got some shit. [00:07:18] Speaker B: Yeah, you can't wear those. [00:07:20] Speaker A: What? [00:07:21] Speaker B: They too big. [00:07:21] Speaker A: The Denver Nuggets too big. I'm bigger. [00:07:27] Speaker B: You go try that jersey on. I bet you that jersey is still gonna swallow you. [00:07:30] Speaker A: It's regular size now. [00:07:32] Speaker B: What size is it? [00:07:34] Speaker A: I don't know. Whatever size they went by there. They didn't go by two x and three x, I don't think. [00:07:39] Speaker B: No, I'm saying. I know it was like 54, 58. [00:07:41] Speaker A: Nah, I'm double the size that I. [00:07:42] Speaker B: Was back then when you had that jersey. [00:07:44] Speaker A: Hell, yeah. [00:07:45] Speaker B: I bet you that jersey's still too big. Nah, and too long. [00:07:48] Speaker A: I bet your shit fit like a t shirt. [00:07:50] Speaker B: The Denver, you say Denver nuggets? [00:07:52] Speaker A: I got Denver Nuggets. I got the. Remember with the rainbow shit on it? Yeah, the Rainbow City. [00:07:58] Speaker B: I got that. [00:07:59] Speaker A: I got. What's the green one? I got a whole bunch of them. [00:08:04] Speaker B: A jersey? [00:08:05] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:05] Speaker B: Pull them out. [00:08:06] Speaker A: I might have to put them on Facebook. Who gonna buy them. [00:08:09] Speaker B: See how big they swallow you. [00:08:11] Speaker A: Nah, I'm telling you, they regular tank. They can be fit like wife beaters. I'm two times bigger than what I was. [00:08:16] Speaker B: Mm. You bought that jersey. I got shirts like that, you know. Why was I buying a two x big polo shirt? [00:08:26] Speaker A: How? Well, you wore a large in real life. [00:08:29] Speaker B: Probably an extra large. Really? And if I got it to fit. But now it just looks ridiculous. Cause it's two too big. [00:08:38] Speaker A: That's my number three. [00:08:39] Speaker B: What? [00:08:40] Speaker A: Baggy clothes. [00:08:41] Speaker B: Baggy, baggy clothes. [00:08:42] Speaker A: Baggy plants, baggy pants. Was it, like, ridiculous? It couldn't be. Well, my number three baggy pants. It wasn't baggy at the bottom. Two. Just the pants was like, they were big. You could fit two people in them. [00:09:00] Speaker B: But they had to be big at the bottom. [00:09:02] Speaker A: They wasn't as big as, like, bell bottoms right now. Like, how pants are made now. They made more square before they were kind of knee down. They go down to your. It's like, a little different. [00:09:15] Speaker B: How they wear them now is different, though. Cause they go straight down, but they are shorter. So they stay wide the whole way. [00:09:25] Speaker A: But back then, they narrowed out. [00:09:29] Speaker B: They were longer, so they bunched up. They got bunched up at the bottom. [00:09:33] Speaker A: You're right. [00:09:34] Speaker B: That's what it was. They got bunched up at the bottom. Now they just go straight down. And they, you know, cut off at the shoe. [00:09:39] Speaker A: Yeah, that's my number three. [00:09:40] Speaker B: That's your number three. My number three. Nineties fashion. This was kind of came out when I was, like, in middle school, but it was two boots. I remember that people was getting high tech boots. [00:09:55] Speaker A: Yep. [00:09:56] Speaker B: And mountain gears. [00:09:57] Speaker A: Mountain gears, son. The blue ones and the black ones. [00:10:00] Speaker B: My homie shout out to my homie, edie, he had a red pair of mountain gears. [00:10:03] Speaker A: They was rocking them down here, too. [00:10:05] Speaker B: Yeah, nigga, we ain't in the. This ain't Montana. [00:10:08] Speaker A: That's crazy, though. I felt like we was in a time walk, for real.

Maybe a couple weeks later, but we started rocking it, too. [00:10:21] Speaker A: That's crazy. [00:10:22] Speaker B: Yeah, we was rocking high tech boots and mountain gears. [00:10:25] Speaker A: Wow. [00:10:25] Speaker B: When I was in middle school. [00:10:26] Speaker A: Yeah, I had a pair of high tech. No, I think they were mountain gear school. I had mountain gear.

Not like the acgs. Like they was wearing in DC. [00:10:59] Speaker A: Oh, we was ac. We. ACG was big in the nineties, but. [00:11:04] Speaker B: It would be like the kind of like the hiking kind. [00:11:08] Speaker A: Yeah, like the sneakers. [00:11:09] Speaker B: Yeah, but they weren't really, like the ones that got real, real super popular. [00:11:13] Speaker A: Yeah, we. You know what? In the nineties, we started going with high quality. Like. Like how I mentioned hoodies. They had to be the thick ones. [00:11:24] Speaker B: The thick ones. [00:11:24] Speaker A: Yeah. So the hoodies might, of course, $150. [00:11:28] Speaker B: That's crazy. [00:11:29] Speaker A: Yeah. For a Carhall hoodie back then, it. [00:11:31] Speaker B: Was that much back then.

Wu Tang had it. Cause it was. [00:12:23] Speaker B: They did it in the triumph video. [00:12:24] Speaker A: They did. I think. [00:12:25] Speaker B: I think it was triumph. One of the videos they had the fatigues on. [00:12:29] Speaker A: That might have been late. Triumph was 2000. [00:12:31] Speaker B: Nah, triumph was like 90. 96. 97. Triumph wasn't 2000.

[00:13:11] Speaker A: Just the whole grimy, grimy, Dusty look. [00:13:16] Speaker B: Yeah, I wasn't. I like, you know, it was hip hop, but I really didn't like the dusty look, the go to work look. [00:13:24] Speaker A: It wasn't Dusty. [00:13:25] Speaker B: It was them niggas. Grimy. What's another word for grimy? [00:13:29] Speaker A: Dusty? Nah, another word for grimy is tough. [00:13:34] Speaker B: Gritty. [00:13:35] Speaker A: Gritty. [00:13:35] Speaker B: What's grit? What's gritty? [00:13:37] Speaker A: Dirt. It's gritty. [00:13:42] Speaker B: Dusty met the man. Used to look Dusty back in the day. [00:13:46] Speaker A: He did. But that was the shit. [00:13:47] Speaker B: Unkempt. [00:13:48] Speaker A: That was the. [00:13:48] Speaker B: If you will. [00:13:49] Speaker A: That was the style. That was it. Half your hair braided, Dusty. [00:13:55] Speaker B: Keep going. Say something else. [00:13:57] Speaker A: Nah. Cause you try to say I look dusty back. [00:13:58] Speaker B: Oh, so that was your style. [00:14:00] Speaker A: Okay, everybody, everybody, everybody in the era. Boot camp click era. [00:14:04] Speaker B: Dusty. That's why they hated Puffy and them boysenhe. Because they had to go buy clean clothes. [00:14:11] Speaker A: Exactly. They hated the shiny suit era. [00:14:14] Speaker B: They had to go buy clean clothes. [00:14:16] Speaker A: Triumph came out in 97 also. [00:14:17] Speaker B: I told you. I knew it. [00:14:19] Speaker A: Got that one. [00:14:20] Speaker B: You got that one. My number two. It kind of. It goes along with yours, but I take it a little further. So it's like the sports clothing era in the nineties. So. Cause, like, nowadays, even though, you know, people wear jerseys, but most of the time, they don't wear the jerseys as like, an outfit. They mainly wear it, you know, to represent their team for the most part. [00:14:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:42] Speaker B: But back then, you know, starter jackets. [00:14:45] Speaker A: Oh, remember that? [00:14:46] Speaker B: You know, it was a whole gang around here called a starter posse. [00:14:52] Speaker A: For real? [00:14:53] Speaker B: Yeah. They would go up on people buses and take their starters. [00:14:56] Speaker A: Yeah, I used to do that. [00:14:57] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? If they didn't, you know, and, you know, it was certain starter jackets that people had that meant something. Like the raiders. The raiders, you know, but this, the zip up one, it was before the pullover Jones. It had the cowboys, the 49 ers. Those were the ones. [00:15:17] Speaker A: Cowboys 49 ers. The dolphin one was big dolphin one. [00:15:24] Speaker B: I remember somebody having a Minnesota one. The Chicago Bulls. [00:15:28] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, the Bulls won. The Bulls, the booze. And the raiders one was like the biggest one. [00:15:32] Speaker B: The biggest ones back then. Yeah, in the nineties. But then, you know, mid nineties, they came out with the pullovers. [00:15:39] Speaker A: Yeah, but the pullover had a half zip. [00:15:42] Speaker B: Yeah, it did. [00:15:43] Speaker A: Like at the top, you had a pouch here, and it had the half zip. [00:15:46] Speaker B: And so you lift up the hood. Had to start in the back of the neck. [00:15:52] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:15:53] Speaker B: Now, the Charlotte Hornets was a big one. The Cowboys, the football teams ones was pretty big. But the Hornets one was a real big teal. The teal with the purple. [00:16:01] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:03] Speaker B: Now, the baseball ones were different, so you know what I'm saying? They had to start on the wrist. The baseball ones had a smaller starter on the wrist. And then when you flip the hoodie up, it didn't have the starter on the back of the neck for some reason. [00:16:19] Speaker A: Okay. [00:16:19] Speaker B: And I know this because which one you had? It was on sale. Nah, it was a Florida Marlins. [00:16:26] Speaker A: The green one. [00:16:27] Speaker B: Yeah, I got it on. Huh? [00:16:30] Speaker A: Green and red. Red emblem. [00:16:31] Speaker B: No, Florida Marlins was like the teal. Black teal and black or whatever. [00:16:36] Speaker A: Okay, okay. [00:16:37] Speaker B: Yeah, but it was like that teal color with the black and white, but it just didn't have the star on the hood. It just had the star on the sleeve. [00:16:46] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:46] Speaker B: So I was reluctant to flip my hood up. Yeah, but I got it on sale for, like, I think my mama got it on sale for like $40 or something like that. [00:16:55] Speaker A: That ain't the right. [00:16:55] Speaker B: Where your star at? You know what I'm saying? [00:16:57] Speaker A: That's crazy. [00:16:58] Speaker B: That was the thing. But even with that, so that was big. But like, even, like, in the early nineties, like, you know. You know, the jerseys. Cause jerseys was getting kind of big. Cause it was kind of rare for somebody to get a jersey. Jerseys was even. The replicas was like $40. And that's a lot for a jersey, you know what I'm saying? But then the hockey jersey, like, snoop and them remember the hockey jerseys started wearing the hockey jerseys. [00:17:19] Speaker A: Oh, man. [00:17:19] Speaker B: Shit was like $100. Everybody couldn't get the hockey Jersey. [00:17:23] Speaker A: That hockey jersey was big, man. That was a big era. Yep, I forgot about that one. [00:17:28] Speaker B: Yep. So all of that, you know, first. [00:17:30] Speaker A: Time I seen somebody get robbed for a jacket was a starter jacket. [00:17:33] Speaker B: For real. Then pro. What's the pro line? A pro era. Pro era came out with this. And they had they style of jackets, and they had the hats, too. They had to match. Was like, it looked like somebody painted. [00:17:47] Speaker A: Okay. [00:17:48] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? So they had those hats. I mean, a lot of people had, like, the Buffalo Bills pro line, a pro era, whatever it was called, jackets and hats. [00:17:56] Speaker A: That's crazy. [00:17:57] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? But, yeah, so that was my number two. Yeah. What's your number two? [00:18:04] Speaker A: We at my number two? [00:18:05] Speaker B: Yeah, you at your number two. [00:18:06] Speaker A: Okay.

Matter of fact, it was a store in the mall that sold that shit legit. Yeah, okay. Nigga, you think we backwoods? [00:18:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I think y'all backwoods. [00:18:39] Speaker B: You think we had. We just got color tv. [00:18:42] Speaker A: Look, I think everybody back. Everybody. That motherfucker. Nah, but iceberg was my favorite shit, you had iceberg? Yeah, I had two sweaters. [00:18:51] Speaker B: So dope. [00:18:52] Speaker A: No, iceberg sweater cost, like $600. The last one I had was a gray one. Had, like, daffy duck on it. It was dark gray and light gray. It was reversible. It was so thick. It was a sweater on the outside and a sweater on the inside, but it was reversible. [00:19:10] Speaker B: So did you count that one as two, or you had another one count. [00:19:13] Speaker A: That's two. That price. [00:19:14] Speaker B: You said I had two. So how much was it? [00:19:17] Speaker A: Three. [00:19:17] Speaker B: Oh, it's 300. [00:19:18] Speaker A: I paid three. Cause it was from a booster that just stole it out of the store. And I'm, like, walking down the street. He just came out of the store with it in the bag. [00:19:28] Speaker B: But normally there was, like, six, though, right? [00:19:30] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, man. You catch them that going probably 700, 600. Like, it was real expensive. You wasn't catching one for 300. You wasn't getting one for $100 either. You couldn't get a t shirt for 100. [00:19:44] Speaker B: I should have had coogee on there. I forgot about Coogee. Now that you say iceberg. [00:19:48] Speaker A: Coogee was biggest. [00:19:49] Speaker B: Coogie was big. [00:19:50] Speaker A: And really, I think Coogie ended up being big after it was on the way out. Like, once Biggie finished with it, that's when regular people started getting coogee. Biggie had coogee on when people wasn't even really realizing what it is. [00:20:05] Speaker B: Well, we know the first person who really rocked coogee. Who? Bill Cosby. [00:20:12] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:13] Speaker B: Cobbs was rocking coogee before Biggie. [00:20:14] Speaker A: You think they were really coogies? Yeah. For real? [00:20:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:18] Speaker A: You just learned me on that. Go back. I know they look like coogies, but. [00:20:22] Speaker B: Yeah, but they really are coogies. [00:20:23] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:20:24] Speaker B: And he was originating. Who else back then could afford, really could afford those. That price point. You know what I'm saying? But even, like, early nineties, mid nineties down here, like you say, regular people could rock it. But regular people weren't rocking no coogee. [00:20:38] Speaker A: No. [00:20:39] Speaker B: It was only dope boys. [00:20:40] Speaker A: Yeah, you're right about that. [00:20:41] Speaker B: It was only dope boys rock and coogee. And then their girlfriends will have the dress. [00:20:45] Speaker A: You remember those? [00:20:46] Speaker B: Yeah, the dress. [00:20:47] Speaker A: Were those official? [00:20:48] Speaker B: I think so. [00:20:49] Speaker A: I wonder. [00:20:50] Speaker B: I think so. I mean, the store. [00:20:52] Speaker A: I can't remember seeing a store selling, like, a Macy's selling a coogee dress. [00:20:56] Speaker B: Well, the store here that sold them wasn't Macy's, though. [00:21:00] Speaker A: It was a New York store. Like, somebody that came from New York selling shit. [00:21:03] Speaker B: Nah, it was a. What is that? Asian? They were from. I don't know where they were from, but they sold, like. Like, where most of the people got all of their, like, hip hop. Like, the average jackets. Yeah, yeah, fat farm jackets. Like, they had all of that, but then they had coogee there, too. So you would go there to get that type of stuff. [00:21:21] Speaker A: Man, I wanted an Avrex jacket so bad. All my people's had an average, except me. [00:21:27] Speaker B: I wanted. I just wanted one, like, hip hop coat no matter what it was. Yeah. So I was gonna get. I was gonna get a rockawear. [00:21:41] Speaker A: Okay. That was a big one, too. [00:21:43] Speaker B: It was on sale, but they didn't have my size, so I was like, well, damn. So outkast clothing had just came out, and my girlfriend at the time, she was working at that same store in the mall. And so I was like, man, I don't know if I wanna get this fat farm coat or the outkast. Cause it was like they was gonna be the same price. She was like, well, you don't know if our cat's gonna be around, but fat farm gonna be around fat farm. So I got the fat farm. [00:22:08] Speaker A: Yeah, I think that was a good choice. [00:22:09] Speaker B: It was not a good choice. [00:22:11] Speaker A: Why do you think that? [00:22:12] Speaker B: Cause the outcast clothing would be more legendary now. Cause I still got the fat phone. It still look brand new. So if I wore the fat phone. If I wore the outkast clothing jacket right now. [00:22:23] Speaker A: Nah, they're not gonna be like, oh. [00:22:26] Speaker B: They would be like, oh, that's the outcast. Yes. [00:22:28] Speaker A: Negative. [00:22:29] Speaker B: Yes. [00:22:29] Speaker A: No. [00:22:30] Speaker B: Yes. Cause what Russell did was, they put fat farm in Walmart. [00:22:37] Speaker A: That's when they fucked up. [00:22:37] Speaker B: So that fucked up the brand. [00:22:38] Speaker A: That's when they fucked it up. [00:22:39] Speaker B: They fucked the brand up. [00:22:40] Speaker A: Fat farm and baby farm, that's the same thing with. All right, fat Joe had a leather also. [00:22:46] Speaker B: What was it called? Five hundred fifty s. I don't remember that. [00:22:49] Speaker A: And if you wore that now, that look like something. [00:22:54] Speaker B: But he fat. Jodo. He not outkast. I'm sorry. I mean, he not outkast. Let me see. Like, if you wore a Carl Kanai jacket now or something. Carl Kanai. And that shit was official. [00:23:08] Speaker A: Nas back out, though. Carl Canard is back out. Have you wore leather right now from. Yeah, you're official. [00:23:15] Speaker B: I'm trying to think of something else that was out, that went away. [00:23:18] Speaker A: South Pole. [00:23:19] Speaker B: No, no, no, we didn't respect South Pole. [00:23:22] Speaker A: Yeah, you right. Pilly. [00:23:26] Speaker B: Pilly. [00:23:27] Speaker A: Nah, official right now. [00:23:28] Speaker B: If you are. Pele. Pele. [00:23:30] Speaker A: If you wear that now. [00:23:31] Speaker B: Right now. [00:23:31] Speaker A: Official. Official. Yeah. [00:23:33] Speaker B: Avery's came back out. [00:23:34] Speaker A: It's still 7800 for a pair. [00:23:37] Speaker B: Oh, they still sell them? Yeah. Okay. [00:23:39] Speaker A: Other stores with all the minks, how much the leather? [00:23:44] Speaker B: Averex? [00:23:45] Speaker A: You could catch one for about five, like the cheapest one. [00:23:49] Speaker B: Five or six. That's that. [00:23:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:50] Speaker B: Okay. The leather joints. Yeah, the half leather joints, that what we used to. Well, that's what I used to call them. I don't know where I get that from. They were like three something, you know. [00:24:01] Speaker A: Those were lighter, right? [00:24:03] Speaker B: Well, they was the same. They just. They just went all leather. They were just. They were like the wool varsity jacket. Yeah, that's how varsity jacket. That was like three something like. That's how my fat farm is. It's like that, man. [00:24:18] Speaker A: Averex was so big at one time in the nineties, if you wore it in a group and people saw a group of y'all with a rex on, they thought. They thought you was dope artists. [00:24:29] Speaker B: Okay, okay. [00:24:30] Speaker A: Cuz mob deep, all the videos, like towards the end of the nineties, they was wearing a rex. [00:24:38] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:24:38] Speaker A: And if you was out, you know, out in, you know, Manhattan or anything like that, you had an Avery song, they would think, you know, you somebody. Yeah, you somebody. And then the Wu Tang jacket came out and woo. Yeah. [00:24:50] Speaker B: If you had a woo jacket now that was in pristine condition, you can still do it. You could rock it. [00:24:55] Speaker A: You could pull it off. [00:24:55] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that was your number one. My number one, your number one and my number one, your number three and my number one is the same, was this baggy clothes. And if you go look at some of the clothes from back in the day, like, look at the draft day of Lebron. Oh, my God, Carmelo. Yeah. Dwayne Wade was in that draft class. [00:25:19] Speaker A: What'd they say? Nasty work. [00:25:21] Speaker B: Nasty work. Them suits was so fucking big. I remember my cousin died and like, my other cousins had came to the funeral or whatever, and them niggas had on them big ass suits, sagging them pants. Yeah. Just. We look ridiculous. You go back and look at some of the videos in the nineties, we look ridiculous. [00:25:40] Speaker A: But button ups, man, and button ups with big ass pants. And you didn't tuck the shirt in. [00:25:45] Speaker B: Nah, they had the shirt untucked with the blazer and the big ass jeans and some shoes that, you know, you try to wear some, like, not loafers, but, like, not. No Jordan type shoes. You would try to wear, like, air force ones or some s dark carters or some G unit sneakers with it. Niggas look ridiculous. [00:26:03] Speaker A: That's our next one, man. What you gotta do the worst freaking, like, G unit sneakers and the G unit freaking tank tops. That was the worst. [00:26:14] Speaker B: Niggas was rocking that.
