Nas Inks a Deal with Fila
Fila was what the Fly Guys wore back in the day.
Billboard.com is reporting that MC extraordinare Nas has signed a one year deal with sports apparel and footwear company Fila. In exchange for money for ads and a tour, Nas will sport Fila gear and co-create an 80′s inspired line for the brand.
“My best friend Will and I loved Fila,” Nas tells Billboard. “It represented prestige and everything that was cool to us. When Will passed, we buried him in a black Fila sweat suit, so doing a deal with them has a lot of significance for me.”

My man Nas! We’ll see what it looks like.
Fila been doo-doo for YEEEEEEEEAAAAARRS!!!! An then that recent drop of the “Prade-esk” looking kiKks were even worse, aside from Hurricane Chris Endoring those.
Remember when people used to say “Fee-lie” until the makers of Fila pronounced it otherwise? LMAO!!!!!
Yeah, Fila is what lames like me wear. J/K. I don’t wear Fila.
