Re: Our Colors

Thje Reggae Boyz shirts are predominantly Yellow in colour.
Go to the Stadium on an international footballing night involving Jamaica and see a sea of Yellow.

Those girls would look sweeter in pink or lilac or whatever.
They look to be making some kinda Jamaican/ Garveyite/ Rasta statement in those mixes of red, green, Black and gold.

A caw de big name fashion houses dem put it pan de catwalk mek certain Jamaican stawt gwan like dem nationalistic eno... but as soon as de nex big ting come een, dem gawn to dat...

you must have never been to the west-indian labor day parade on eastern parkway in brooklyn;
i've always seen j'cans represent in one way or another...
but we're low-key compared to the ethiopians who are super-patriotic &amp; show their colors every chance they get...
still; if you live inna farrin i feel like it's somewhat over the top to be sporting your nation's colors ALL the time...no problem once in a while or at events, but americans or whoever might feel like you are rubbing it in their faces and you are in THEIR country...

Oono mussi nuh come a NY/Brooklyn much, because Jamaicans have been wearing the colors for years...I remember when I was in middle school I had the rasta belt, mi use tuh wear di rasta buttons, and nuh fi mention Jamaica colors. Where you think the "Big" designers get their inspiration from? [img]/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I like this one. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70377-loveeyes.gif[/img]..would not have liked it in a block design...but I would rock this camo one...

I think for me it all depends on the design of the garment and how the colors are used....the green, black and yellow depending on how it is used can be a bit overpowering....but I still do like them...
