The sdc representative explained that the, "font and style are an homage to '80s/'90s LA Latino gang memorial graphic shirts/sweatshirts ... that were made using two-inch, iron-on gothic letters."

Forever 21 isn't the only brand feeling Pablo. Back in January, Zara released a replica of Yeezy Boost 750s and Aldo did the same in March.
