Everyone's Polo experience is different. I don't agree with the booster argument as far as who has a right to wear the jacket but understand it means more to some than others. The same with "rules of wearing polo". Only rule I have is I have to like it but I respect others people passion about it even if I don't entertain it.I just get irked. No one crew was wearing Polo. Every kid was rocking a little bit or allot of Polo.
I was introduced to Polo in 87 to 89. I remember coming to school and kids asking me what I was wearing.
Kids from the 90s (east 98 st etc) in east flatbush put me onto polo. Allot of kids had Polo over there. Huge ski pieces etc.
The boosting was a part of it. But you had kids who could actually afford it. I used to run with those kids.
We saved our money and hit the out of state outlets in the summer and came to school loaded. We had to use the outlets because most of the big pieces were gone at A&S and Macys. The boosters got to em. lol
Polo is bigger than boosting. Thats just a piece of the community.
