Lol why using a meme of yall cosplaying Black Americans
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Sweatpants were first invented by French sportswear manufacturer Le Coq Sportif in 1920 to provide athletes with comfort and ease of mobility. As sweatpants became more common, Le Coq Sportif designed the "Sunday suit" as a combination of sweatpants and a matching top

Portuguese here, and at least since the 90s I'd see people in tracksuits, mainly portuguese migrants living in France...and the truth is, in the 90s you are more likely to know Aqua or Vengaboys than any US rapper, but like you said, football was king.
Some of them are north africans…?

Wasn't no damn soccer" is the most historically illiterate thing you could say. The 1954 World Cup (Miracle of Bern) made Adidas a global empire. The Samba (1949) was made for soccer. The very first Adidas tracksuit (1967) was made for European soccer legend Franz Beckenbauer.

I need to point out that when non native English speakers say streetwear they dont mean the american slang "streetwear" they use it as the equivalent word for their own slang.
French people have their own street culture.
C'est faux : Non, ça existait déjà au Moyen Âge inventé par les sociétés de bâtisseurs notamment en France (votre pays exitait pas encore ), avant de se transmettre aux gangs italiens, puis aux gangs afro-américains. ( arreter de croire que vous êtes le centre du monde ).
