我小時候在卡爾弗城長大，後來搬到了克倫肖區。

Where I'm from, definitely sculpted the brand and made it what it is today.

在我的家鄉，這個品牌無疑是經過雕琢的，才有了今天的成就。

I grew up in a little bit of a rougher area than a lot of other brand owners, and that definitely made FTP what it is.

與許多其他品牌的所有者相比，我在一個略顯崎嶇的地方長大，這無疑造就了現在的 FTP。

Yeah, I mean, we don't really follow, like, general rules.

是的，我是說，我們並不遵循一般規則。

That's why I think it is, the brand is what it is, because we're not going, like, by a specific, like, script, or, like, by how other brands have done it in the past.

這就是我認為品牌之所以是品牌的原因，因為我們沒有按照特定的劇本，也沒有按照其他品牌過去的做法。

And it's just like a, it's like we're just freestyling it, and I think that's what works for us, and it's gonna, we're just gonna continue to do that, and not really care about opinions or what other people think, and just keep running it.

這就像我們在自由發揮，我覺得這才是適合我們的，我們會繼續這樣做，不會在意別人的看法，也不會在意別人怎麼想，就這樣一直做下去。

I think a lot of kids have the, like, the fuck you attitude, and I think our brand definitely gets that message across, of, like, we do what we want, and I think a lot of kids just can relate to that, that specific message, and that's why people wear stuff and buy it.

我認為很多孩子都有 "去你媽的 "的態度，我認為我們的品牌絕對能傳達這樣的資訊："我們想做什麼就做什麼"，我認為很多孩子都能體會到這一特定的資訊，這也是人們穿戴和購買的原因。

He moved around the corner from me probably my 10th grade year, maybe 11th grade year, and once he was around the corner from me, I mean, we were just, like, inseparable, you know, we both stopped playing baseball, 10th grade.

他搬到了離我很近的拐角處，大概是在我 10 年級的時候，也許是 11 年級的時候，一旦他搬到了離我很近的拐角處，我的意思是，我們就像，形影不離，你知道，我們都不再打棒球了，10 年級的時候。

So that little transition for us, it was just like, okay, now what?

你知道，我們已經習慣了每天打棒球，現在我們要面對的只是街頭，成為一個，你知道的，非裔美國青少年。

Not necessarily the best environments, but those same environments were the environments that helped us grow up, you know, as young men, and helped just give us just a different outlook on life, and what to dream for, and what to hope for in the future.

不一定是最好的環境，但同樣是這些環境幫助我們成長，你知道，作為年輕人，幫助我們對生活有了不同的看法，對夢想有了不同的追求，對未來有了不同的希望。

When the brand got banned from the school that I went to, it made kids want it more, and it made me work harder, too, because I don't know what school would try to ban something that a kid is doing, you know?

當這個品牌在我就讀的學校被禁用時，孩子們更想要這個品牌了，這也讓我更加努力工作，因為我不知道哪個學校會試圖禁止孩子們正在做的事情，你知道嗎？

Well, that same message, they called every single student at Culver City and told them, if you wear FTP to school, you got to take it off, you got to come to the front office, get a shirt out of the lost and found.

同樣的資訊，他們給卡爾弗城的每個學生都打了電話，告訴他們，如果你穿著 FTP 上學，就得把它脫下來，到前臺來，從失物招領處拿一件襯衫。

If you weren't trying to comply with any of those rules, you eventually had to go home for the day.

如果你不遵守這些規則，你最終不得不回家休息一天。

And I think that point alone, when those phone calls hit and those messages got to everyone's house, I mean, that was like the spark, in my opinion.

在我看來，光是這一點，當電話打進來，當資訊傳到每個人的家裡，我的意思是，這就像星星之火，可以燎原。

That was the spark that was just like, yo, this is really something right here.

這就是當時的火花，就像，喲，這真是個好東西。

The fact that the school could recognize the impact or the message that we were trying to give off and they tried their best to shut it down.

對於反主流文化，也就是我們和所有我們認為穿著 FTP 的人來說，我們認識到了我們所看到的一切。

And that is a, that's a huge, huge piece to the puzzle.

這也是拼圖中非常重要的一環。

If the world is going to react like that to the message and the brand that we're putting out there, you know that you got something big. I think the reaction to the controversial designs is pretty, well, back in the day, it was like pretty shocking because I was like young and people were like tripping over like certain things.

如果世界會對我們傳遞的資訊和我們的品牌做出這樣的反應，你就知道你得到了大東西。 我認為，人們對有爭議的設計的反應是非常好的，好吧，在過去，這就像非常令人震驚，因為我還年輕，人們就像被某些東西絆倒了一樣。

But I think it's awesome.

但我覺得它很棒。

I think that's what made the brand what it is today because like shock value, whatever people were, people weren't doing that stuff back then.

I mean, we've able to, we've been able to push past that and, and now the name doesn't really, it doesn't affect us in a negative way, but that that's been the hardest part is growing, is growing a brand with the word fuck in the name.

我的意思是，我們能夠，我們已經能夠推過去，而且，現在這個名字真的不，它不會以一種消極的方式影響我們，但這一直是最困難的部分是成長，是成長的品牌與字他媽的名字。
