He’s not saying that Vlone fell off in terms of sales because in that area it’s still doing good. He means as far as public perception and mainstream appeal it fell off. As stated in the video Vlone was supposed to be like the next off white but it didn’t take the jump that off white did because of Bari’s allegations. Plus he was dropped by Nike and and pretty much hated by the fashion community.
What did bari do
@@TwincircleMusic his rape allegations
The title is click bait. There is no down fall. It's a new trend for CZcamsrs to make videos of famous people going out sad /bad, falling off ect.
How you explained it makes way more sense. bro be caping in the video.
I don't think Vlone wouldve been like off white, I think It wouldve been more like FTP or mastermind.
Vlone want be able to come back in the mainstream because of Bari's past, it would be suicide for any established brand.
And as much as we like to bash Bari, we have to give him his props, he is a visionary. But still he is a psychopath and needs help.
I don't think theres anyway to recover from his actions.
What do you think?
@@kawaiii7225 I mean yeah you made some valid points. But as far as mainstream appeal then bari himself isn’t gonna get any bigger. The Vlone brand itself is still popular especially with the rapper collaborations he’s been doing. I feel like it’s too risky for brands to associate themselves with a person like him because of his past. That’s the whole reason why he was dropped from Nike. I don’t think we’ll see any more collaborations from big brands like Nike, adidas, etc.
Is it just me or does the background music makes it seem like they all died?
lol
it’s greece by drake just piano version
Yh alie
@@jackbeighton4480 i thought it sounded familar
@@jackbeighton4480 lmaooo that’s kinda jokes
Vlone turned into an artist collaboration brand
Yeah I can’t find no just regular vlone shit
You mean his floating devices
Factual
& most of the regular drops are weak if they aren’t jackets or jeans
All ya still broke go get some money stop worrying about another man. 💯
You know you are getting old, when there are CZcams documentaries about ASAP. Ten years ago! Wow.
i remem when ian punched theo in the face i remember the day
Still feel like growing
@@vipbabyboy19 he was fighting Bari AND Theo lmaoo it was about respect with Ian
Right omg time flies I rem as if it was yesterday
never knew that greece played on piano could be so emotional
lool fr
@@Threaducation what’s the name of the piano piece?
@@kevintowers8006 its in the description
😂
Man I could not make out what song it was 😂 ur comment saved me some stress
Vlone used to actually be rare the artist collabs really messed that up
facts like that cringe pop smoke durag he posted lol
Naw fr tho 😭😭 vlone lame asl now
@@kpmunna9941 I never said it wasn’t
@@TopShelfKobe pop smoke collab fire tho

How mfs act when they wear Vlone: 🚶🏻♂️➡️
I Don’t get it
@@lilbigman00 they want the V seen
😂
Sounds like me
@John Singleton I hear salt
The way the public views you means everything in the fashion world
facts, whether thats good or bad I dont know
Bari full of himself the brand could have been huge.
You woke up speaking Facts this morning bro
Thank you for being very honest
It’s not even that nice of a brand in the first place
@@ammbusshh it's a ok brand that V on the back is legendary
Okay Kanye full himself too. If you, came up with an intellectual asset and it sold millions, you’d have a sense of pride too. You’re not in shoes to feel his energy so you wouldn’t even understand. This shit is like a nonstop adrenaline rush. I’d pop my shit and talk my shit too. All these top notch brand owners probably grabbing women by the pussy just like trump
After binging all these videos, I have a sidebar:
The layout of this channel, the thumbnails, the pfp, and the editing; it all feels like high-end fashion.. like a boutique of sorts, that really intrigued me to want to know more about the design behind this channel. It’s eye catching, I’ve watched every video.. here I am again, couldn’t help but click on a video I’ve watched.. the design has a luxurious feel to it, it seduces you to click on it; feels like I get to step in on something special that most aren’t aware of. A true brand
Thank you bro, that means more than you know. Stuff like this keeps going. Can't thank you enough - this is just the beginning 💫
@@Threaducation man, I hope it’s only the beginning, lol, I’m rewatching the videos now.
This channel is golden, Ive seen ppl comment saying you need to start your own fashion.. merch.. you know your stuff, so why not? Give it a shot, one day ppl will be making a video about you..
I remember my first beer
@@austins.2495 lol I was gonna say they smoking some laced weed😂
exactly how i feel
Bari should’ve known it wasn’t gonna come easy. He was wayyy too cocky and felt untouchable behaving in a rich idiotic manner. His actions led him to allegations and gave those masses a public reason to cancel him. They already didn’t want him to make it🤷🏾♂️
Vlone from 2016-2018 was an era 😢 I remember coming back to Jersey (where vlone is scarce unless it’s fake) And was rocking vlone and I had eyes all on me
Define the word fake... because all this shit get made overseas by foreigners let's be real u mean quality different as in materials
@@FlightDreamZExtoicz the type of color way shirts and they didn’t have the V tag around the collar. Crazy that’s what makes it “authentic” right? 🥴
Just discovered this channel. Your story telling is amazing!
thank you! welcome to the channel 💫
Your channel is so dope. Glad I found it and I'm looking forward to more quality content.
thank you, more on the way!
Dope work mane. Am really enjoying your series! Peace peace
always impressed with your work, brother
Ong these videos are soo good for ppl wanting to learn about street wear and fashion and the backgrounds of creators and the brands!!! Has helped me a lot tbh, keep up the videos defiantly gotta subscribe
exactly what im trying to do - thank you bro
Vlone never fell off. its just like that one friend that got involved with the wrong crowd
It didn’t get involved, it was it
I felt this on a personal lvl G 🗿
The wrong crowd happens to be the artist collabs although The Weeknd collab was good
Ive seen alot if artists and people wearing it
@@RedRanger_ it’s definitely not the artist collabs as a lot of them do very well and even sell out completely, the wrong crowd I’d say is VLONE itself, VLONE tried to be a part of the fashion industry but was rejected because of Bari’s allegations, VLONE is still doing pretty well in terms of sales but the public perception is bad and a big part is also the people wearing it, a lot of them nowadays are just weird ass hype beasts lol
Second video of yours that I watch and I really enjoyed it man. Keep up the good work 👍👍
About that Riot Rave mv my cousin was actually there and he brought a fake replica id to get a free vlone shirt and he still has it.
thats legendary right there
@@Threaducation it is 😂
Damn 😂im sure he wasn't the only one who brought the fake id
@@siphomjita legend 😎
I would have been like hell yea id trade my id for a original vlone!
you should’ve included mentions about the new vlone sister brand “endless” I believe he made that brand to do more high fashion expensive pieces while he can burn tf out of vlone and do consistent money grabs with that brand
Endless will be the future of Bari’s vision in fashion and branding moving forward I believe .
im gonna do a video about endless
Demarco Franklin is also apart of endless, thats gang
@@Threaducation You're a beast man. 2nd video of yours I've watched, you do really solid work mate, cheers
@@iAWP- 💫
I feel like the real downfall of the brand is that they’ve been going since 2011, and they’ve barely evolved since then. Like bro that’s a fucking decade and no real change.
Fax & it’s crazy the price for it I can literally make em at home
Same with iPhone. If it’s not broke don’t fix it.
@@berserkmaster2514 not the same at all lol, change in design can be made almost instantly with graphic tees, iPhone is made by fucking world class engineers, how is it even remotely the same
@@haydenchristensen9278 created by world class engineers, but put together by little Chinese kids in sweatshops.
Vlone isn’t dead, the Nike deal fell through just when the sneakers was suppose to drop and sneakers would have definitely took them over the top but now I believe he gets free designer clothing to make those brands more popular
Vlone more or less killed itself because of Bari
@@shaurpe Just went to the website, literally every vlone collab is sold out.
@@defaultskin962 lol
@@shaurpe everything is sold out what r u saying lol
@@shaurpe when vlone does rapper collabs they keep in on the website for 24 - 48 hours as a promotion for a new album. But, when vlone does their own drops they keep it limited and usally sells out in a few mins or less
Your videos are so well constructed, very fire
thank you 🙏💫
Bra an ID for the first ever Vlone “drop” ? Lol why did they think that would work ? Ok fine I’ll get this very limited gear and pay 50$ to replace my ID next week lol
12$
They lowkey wanted people to take them
People calling bari a “visionary” in the comments as if Vlone hasn’t become nothing but clip art variations on Tees and hoodies in recent years lmaooo
Exactly! Holy shit it's like I'm taking crazy pills, what's visionary about a fucking orange V on the back of a black tee? Vlone is just a trash artificial scarcity brand
this garbage brand only appeals to hypebeast who wants to flex big logos. its nothing new or fashion forward. only people who enjoy big logos to flex their 'wealth' would buy garbage like this.
nah thats friends vlone the runway shit and denims and other shit is fire
Exactly, people are easy to impress
Did yall come up with it tho 🤔🤔🤔🤔
GREAT WORK bro. Im from NYC, you gathered solid information on this joint. Salute💯.
RIP ASAP YAMS🙏🙏🙏
🙏
But what about the girl who died who is also why they named the brand VLONE
The piano keys in the back got me weak😂😂😂... why the dramatic background music?
Come with me leave all of your keys yeah
Virgil and Bari came up together along with matthew williams. Thats how he got into paris and got all collaborations.
They also didnt start before 2011, it started around 2012/13 after pyrex vision and been trill. They did a jail jacket and an entire promo vid for it on if with bari asap k and ian connor
nice vid man keep it going
appreciate it!
I think a case could be made that the entire A$AP mob fell off. Yams is gone. Rocky has had diminishing sales and stature for years. Ferg seems more interested in art then rapping. Odd Future is an example of a collective that disbanded and saw its members go on to bigger and better things.
Ferg and rocky are both humongous artist
@@rockyjumper1165 Ferg has been making waves in the visual art world. But Rocky was supposed to be the next New York Messiah. He doesn’t have nearly the stature of Future, Kendrick, Jay Cole, Travis or Drake. Those were all his contemporaries and Rocky hasn’t sold a fraction of the records/streams they have.
Bruh, the man last album did great lol maybe not physical sales I guess, but stream wise, it was that shit. He was on the radio all summer
Ferg get mad love too so idk what you sayin man
Rocky now dates riri so if thats what you call falling off shit im cool with that lol
your vids are fire bro keep working
Thanks, will do!
Bari was never behind what made Vlone cool in the first place. He just took control of it and drove it off a cliff
most don't know this, he stole this whole shit from my boy
VON LIVE yeah he was always more of a figurehead even early on
@@FL-cc3sz who did he steal it from
@@hoodieap2858 he stole the idea from my boy Pat, they brought him into the crew and called him ASAP PAT. Then basically stole all his idea. If you remember the VLONE green prision jackets. He stole those from my boy and sold them for 300 a piece and didnt give him a red penny...cold game!
@@vonlivebillionaire8674 really or you being sarcastic
Doesn’t sound too deep to me. Sounds like he just had a poor fashion show..... in PARIS! Mans had Scarface on the runway 🤦🏾♂️
4:12 skinniest blunt I have ever seeen

I started a luxury streetwear brand with a couple affordable options in 2020 called Candor and I’m just now relaunching for Spring/Summer 2023 and I haven’t made it until I’m on your channel!!
thanks for don't put ads on, but you could put patron or something,
This video makes me wanna buy some VLONE yay thank you sir I’m going to Google to see what’s out there 🤜🏾🤜🏾
The quality of this video is very nice
Abloh set him up instead of helping he wanted to be the only black designer in Paris Virgil swagger jacked vlone
You might be on to something
I see what you mean but I feel like Virgil took the ball and ran with it cause VLONE will never be as big as it was supposed to be thanks to bari
Sounds like a possibility, on the strength that i actually experienced a situation like that in this music industry
Yea vlone was black owned if you wanna be completely honest about it and it was selling through young crowds
@@DjSoloDoloWill abloh is the reason ye has melt downs to this day. He is a slimy snake that brings you around as a “ apprentice “ but the whole time he is taking your swag and deconstructing it.
Also the fashion shitposting culture kinda ruined vlone name 😭😭
I love your videos so much!!! I just got back into making fashion videos, these are inspiring me to do better lol
glad you like the videos thank you bro 🤝
Bruh if Vlone fell off I'd actually be able to cop. Smh 🧢

lmao that is sad
@@losbaby1044 “real rich nigga my vlone collab made 3ms in 3days!”
@@richshoota9075 bro Vlone is so ugly they have okay designs but the shirt collabs and the shirts witht the big ass V on the back is trash asf
LosBaby so tell me what is different from palm angles supreme off white Dior all that shyt is plain I reall feel like you just down talking the brand because you don’t like him as a person
in my ultimate opinion, the YB VLONE collab is the best VLONE collab I've seen (as of recently).
did anybody else realize the piano chords are from Drake - Greece, or am i buggin
thought i was the only one
Same
When i first saw the warehouse standout "V" I absolutely loved it I wanted smth with it on it because it was just so me. And now it means more to me.
Bari killed his own brand. All he to do was understand the word "no" and gotten with another woman.
Exactly
the offwhite/virgil type mindset you mention was used by nigo back before bape fully started. great video tho!
I like the assortment of ideas in a brands show , only few street brands can do this . A lot of different brands are doing this now
This account my new fav CZcams channel
thank you bro welcome to the channel
Art speaks for itself
Remember
13:30 it's also fire point, 1 run shows, collab with nike which is fire, etc
only rare things, you know? now Endless Denim which is lit
@threaducation. For the background music you used, were those hip hop songs covered by piano? I swore I heard Greece by Drake

I love the content.buh your audio quality😪💔please work on that
I don’t see him wearing his own brand in any of these clips 😕
He had on the fitted
the kids who kept the og shirts from the music videos are kinda smart, a new id takes a bit but its only a couple hundred to get a new one, i bet a early sample vlone sweater or shirt would sell for a few thousand at the peek of the brand
lool yes im 100% none of them regret losing their IDs.
Awesome video
Good video great content

Vlone still makes nice clothes. I still rock some of the old shirts I bought.
Let me buy them

Apologised for what?

AWESOME CHANNEL
when he said the fashion show started late and the audio was failing, thats just regular asap shit lmao. feels like they have badluck with any shows they try doing.
I feel like without the collabs/promotion by A$AP Rocky and other rappers, Vlone wouldn't be at the level it is now. Majority of the people who are into Vlone now just know about it from Juice WRLD, Nav, Playboi Carti or City Morgue. Like a lot their newer pieces without collabs was just the same FRIENDS - or staple logo design in different colourways. It not necessarily at bad things for Vlone as they have supporters but it could've been in better place like before.
Fantastic work - what is the acoustic Greece version background song called please ??
its linked the description
When talking about ASAP rocky and street wear (after talking about peso and purple swag) why not also mention Pyrex to also include the relationship between all of them and Virgil? Think it would’ve been a good anecdote
never noticed rayscorruptedmind being in the riot rave video
Vlone being sold in hood clothing stores in the Bronx and Harlem now, it’s officially over for this brand
How much?
This random but I’m fucking with the “Greece” Piano Cover in the background 😂🔥🔥
11:07 haha the guy's reaction on the left
“i may or may not have been included in that category but that’s besides the point??” why can’t you just admit u wanted to cop a VLONE shirt :/
Lmao
He did didn't he
In my opinion the downfall of Vlone being a mainstream brand was just Bari's karma and arrogance
2:11 what was the point of that clip if the music is so loud you can't even hear what he said?
Don’t forget Bari did a vlone collab with forgiato wheels
Let’s not forget that Bari was screen printing this shit on Gildan t shirts.
lmaooo are u sure???
Vlone fell off because all people was wearing even weird rich people
Hood By Air deserves a video respectfully
it got one
Imagine having such horrible fashion sense that the ASAP crew becomes your template. EL OH EL.
