I dig having the graphic on a jersey but will not spend my money to rep any country that supports war crimes.

Cmon thrasher....

Do you think this is an endorsement of Javier Milei or an acknowledgment in a WC year that Thrashr’s founder was born in Buenos Aires?

I hear you, I personally dont find it a compelling enough reason to show nationalistic pride in that particular country right now, but I guess thats just me

I think it’s pride in Messi if anything, but I get you.  I’m wary of red hats

I hate the government and don’t rep any American sports team or anything with the flag.

Not really. If I don’t pay, I’ll get fined additional money or go prison.

If you’re from a European country, your leaders are likely no better, considering the majority of them have supported Israeli war crimes and land theft for nearly 80 years, along with the US. Your leaders might have decorum but they are colonizing pieces of shit as well. Any “developed nation” is only advanced because of exploitation.

I didn’t pick my nationality or race, and can’t control what the government does. However, I’m not brainwashed by the constant propaganda and see the country I live in as a corrupt, war-mongering, shithole country that chooses to funnel endless money into war and billionaire’s pockets, while claiming they don’t have money to fund healthcare or feed the poor.

Now, can you go back to talking about the collab?

I'm from Ireland. Staunch supporters of Palestine. As we have a lot in common with them.

See your point though.

I probably should have just said that I would pass on it without explaining why, because I didn’t intend to go on a political rant in Shoes & Gear.

What I should have said:
The Gonz graphic is one of my favorites, and I’ve had a few of the tees with that graphic over the years. I wish it had “Vitello” on a tag or on one of the sleeves in a small font instead because I wouldn’t mind having more jerseys in my wardrobe. The thing I mainly hate about skateboarding in the summer is tees sticking to my body after absorbing sweat.

I’m pretty sure the last jersey before the Thrasher-Spitfire one that I bought was in 2019. It was that white and light blue Gonz jersey from Adidas.

Jerseys feel better to skate in when it’s hot, but the tradeoff is that they tear quicker than tees from taking slams.
