PacSun Under Fire for Memorial Day Display Featuring
Upside-Down Flag T-Shirt
by Daniel Nussbaum 25 May 2015
Clothing retailer PacSun
is facing massive customer backlash on Memorial Day for selling a T-shirt
featuring an upside-down black-and-white flag.
Angry customers have flooded the
company’s social media pages to decry the “disrespectful” A$AP
Worldwide T-Shirt, which was designed in collaboration with rapper
A$AP Rocky and features an upside-down flag on its front and the name “A$AP”
and the number “06” on its back.
