Troop makes a Comeback, aka Where the keepin' it real redux happens....

Troop Pro Edition Red
Thank you......NELLY??!?......for bringing back the New York classic isht.  One of the first truly hip-hop brands, b-boys, nefs, and dealers all rocked Troop at one point or another, made popular by none other than Ladies Love Cool J.
