Pelle Pelle WAS da longest running last URBAN brand that still wield DOMINANCE.. RIP

[Mark Antony]

Never seen a soul in DC wear it. Dominance? Yea sure. Maybe in Washington Apple or whatever Ninja's Hood is but not down here.

I wanted to say this but i wasn't tryna start that whole thing in this thread.

But, real talk, you ain't seein nobody rocking a Pelle Pelle or Avirex in the DMV in 2013.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: There's alot of stuff that's big in alot of places that will get you clowned in the DMV. Including those Biggie Marmots, even though Marmots in general are poppin in the DMV.

Honestly though for urban wear, DMV is garbage. I wouldn't put too much stock in what they think.

 

[ninjahood]

always thought this was a slick color pelle...

I thought we weren't considering Stüssy as urban wear?

You speak on something of which you know nothing, son. That's the only explanation for what you just said.

Stussy is still 100x more relevant though. You're talking about a brand that sells essentially one style of product to a handful of cities for 1 season a year. No one buys a single other garment from Pelle Pelle so I can't really call that dominance.

pelle is definitely a 1 trick pony, i'll give you that, but that 1 trick is $$$, and i to be honest, i can't remember da last time i seen a piece of stussy apparel in person, where as soon as it

gets cold in NYC, pelle pelle got da leather marketshare locked down and i see all kinds of styles of em on da streets on a regular basis, plus stussy like i said

isn't urban, its a streetwear brand.

Thought my post went through. Stussy is not urban wear. It has it's roots in skate/surf culture

Kid just got shot over the weekend in Bryant Park in NYC over a biggie Marmot.

 

[Thats My Word]

Whats the difference between urban and streetwear?

 

[cronicmolemolereturns]

Stussy isnt urbanwear.. Stussy is the father of streetwear.

 

[niketalker23]

This isn't a serious thread right?

Pelle Pelle, and dominance?



Move this thread to the NY regional section.

You don't remember the whole Urban Wear wave that DC was on from the 90's to around 2006?

Who is actually wearing "urbanwear" in 2013, anyway? Especially in the DMV where everyone is rocking Stussy/Supreme/The Hundreds/insert streetwear line here.

You know nothing of which you speak, sir. Simply saying "From NYC, live in the DMV now. Garbage." means nothing. There's really no weight or meaning behind that statement.

 

[Magic33]

Pelle Pelle survived the 90's, much less still being around now...so yeaaah

you said nobody in the Chi wears Pelle, and he posted a picture of somebody in the Chi wearing Pelle 

 

[coldcity]

Pelle Pelle


No one outside of NYC wears that ****. Ninja probably got a closet full of Karl Kani as well.

you lyin.  I was in the Chi last week and I saw a BUNCH of Pelle Pelle in the clubs and ****.   **** was fly too

you're welcome to find me a urban brand who can still
command da prices pelle charges and still sell well.

promise, I was at Exedus in Wrigleyville, and I saw atleast 5 or 6 Pelles this past weekend


Also, its hilarious that in a city with almost 3 million people, dudes can generalize what everyone does or doesnt wear

On saturday there wasnt a single white person in the bar.  Exedus is a reggae club, and it was dope, but yeah I saw quite a few Pelles in there, dope ones too

pelle's are still all over

dude clearly has no idea what he talking about

urban specializes in da hiphip demographic, streetwear doesn't.

What does that even mean? For Urban wear we are garbage? Meaning what?

 

[AZwildcats]

I have never seen anyone wear one of those in real life, and I've been around. Must be a NYC/NorthEast thing

 

[mycoldyourdone]

April fools is in April though

 

[shotsrangout]

Why yall even arguing with this man? Pelle Pelle is the right answer and he won't take any other answer.

 

[cashbanks]

always thought this was a slick color pelle...

my younger brother got one similar to this joint its fire

that pelle leather=extra buttery

im not surprised...dont ya wrap xmas lights around cactus down there, i remember watching da weather channel last december and it was 88 degrees for no

reason...

i've posed da question several times for someone to name any other brand in da urban sphere that still dominates for as long as pelle

and no one has named anymore else, you're welcome to suggest something....

 

[Lovetohate3000]

same here bro. just like i dont see many people wearing timbs either. i used to rock pelle pelle clothing in high school. i didnt even know they still existed till this thread. urban name brand clothing dont last which is why dominance doesnt really happen. 

 

[cashbanks]

I'll never understand why dudes from the south or other hot states bother coming in threads like this to say

"i've never seen anyone rock this or timbs"

well duh smart guy if it doesnt get cold why would they?
