: Sad news guys, Diddy's flagship Sean John store on 5th avenue is closing down . .. by the end of the year.
What happened? Well according to Womens Wear Daily, the company has been plagued with sluggish sales since the recession started.
DANG . . . Sean John had a store on 5th avenue . . . wait a sec, people STILL WEAR Sean Jean . .
.
5 STaRS @ silky1700, I hear you - but I personally do not care for Diddy's demeanor, so I wouldn't promote this particular black person, but I feel you 100%! A lot of these popular brands don't use black models or really any other ethnicity but white.
But he should revamp his lines, and NOT put his name/signature all over everything, and make the prices more reasonable during the depression.

u guys are crazy! sean john is still very relevant, more so than any other hip hop label! he line is actually respected in the designer world and Sean john has evolved past baggy jeans and velor suites, shows how much you know about it and he has banked off of his line dont confuse it with rocawear and FYI 5th ave NYC has some of the world highest rent not like he has to shut down a flatbush ave store www.northernstarevents.com
Yall nig-gas be killing me talking about "who still wears Sean John"?...well I do, because the clothes are still fashionable and not cheap or cheap looking!!...you should wear what makes you feel comfortable and what's not offensive to others unlike these skinny jean and tight shirt wearing mf's that be out hear looking like fags because they trying to do what everybody eles doing instead of being themselves!
And further more who cares if he's already rich?...stop the hate people!...I'll rather give my money to a black designer than some non black designer who only cares about black people's money!...you do know that we are the biggest buyers and consumers in the fashion industry from Jordans to designer products such as clothes, purses, cars, make-up/beauty products etc.
F*CK Diddy. As arrogant and low down as he is why is anyone surprised that people are cheering his failure? What has he EVER done for anyone without somehow getting SOMETHING out of it? All of the people he's exploited and ripped off I wouldn't care if he was King ZuluI hope he loses it all. Stop picking your heroes by race he is an awful human being. Karma is knocking on his door.
Give me a break, as if Sean John is the only brand being made in sweat shops. Nothing is made in america anymore. Check out Nike. They are made in sweatshops. I don't hear anyone talking smack about Gucci, Prada, Ralph Lauren. And every time I turn on the radio, I hear some moron name dropping these brands...as if they are getting paid to do it. The designers of those brands would call the cops on everyone on this site if they happened to wander through their neighborhood. Get a clue. At least Diddy followed his dreams and created his own label. Stop hating and do the same thing.
Ain't nuthin wrong with still wearin ANYTHING by any black designer out there. That's a slave mentality when y'all always lookin to go out and get the 'latest brand/trend' cause certain factions have agreed that it's 'hott' this year or next. Fk that! I rock my black designed clothes until I can't anymore as long as they still look good. Some of y'all pay too much attention to the corporate propaganda. They have an incentive to keep you looking for what's 'hot this year'. It keeps you idiots as perpetual consumers. Get a grip, support black designers and start thinking and makin sense...or just keep buying white designers clothes because they tell you to. Fools!
