Like Mike, Not Will Ferrell

Sometimes sellers have a way of aggravating the shit out of me. Take this Mongoloids crewneck. Here’s what the seller has to say.

The Mongoloids crewneck inspired by John C Riley’s shirt in the movie Stepbrothers.

Step Brothers? Really? The movie from 2008? I’m not positive, but I’m pretty sure this sweatshirt came out BEFORE that movie was released.

Here’s the thing. This sweatshirt is obviously based on an OLD Nike Air Jordan design. One very similar to this. It was a Nike tshirt campaign that lasted 20+ years. In fact, I think they just released some ACG tshirts with this design THIS year.

As for this crewneck, it’s cool. I’m guessing the black writing on the shoe upper (where it would normally say “Air Jordan”) likely says “The Mongoloids.” Though, I am calling these out as bootleg jordans. Blue lace guards? No way. The lace guards are definitely black. And the tongue should have a swoosh and “Nike Air,” not the jumpman.
