For Us By Us

Ladies and gentlemen, the return of FUBU. I never saw this one coming. Come on now, don't act like you didn't sport some FUBU back in the day! I think I had some FUBU jeans. The urban clothing giant was introduced back in 1992 by founder Daymond John, and it slated to be reintroduced in the fall of 2010. FUBU was the first real mainstream urban clothing line, with such endorsements from LL Cool J. I think after LL the line started to get over saturated and cheesy. Anybody remember Cross Colors? Yikes! Let's hope they don't make a comeback. With the economy in dire straits this will be interesting to watch. *For those young folks out there FUBU is an acronym meaning: For Us By Us-produced by African Americans for African Americans.
