Silicone wristbands, more commonly referred to as baller i.d.s, can not be divorced in this generations item. It defines ones fashion statement, personality empowerment, social awareness so and so..
They call us to StandUP, LiveSTRONG, Respect, SpeakUp, Sharing the Promise and other slogans. Some even improvise and create their own propaganda debossed, lasered, or printed on the newly innovative way of showing support : RUBBER BANDS.
It was designed as a sports fashion accessory at first. It started when metal accessory for basketball players were banned for safety purposes. Fans became fans, wore the same thing, supported the accessory their basketball idols wore and before they knew it, its a fad.
But what are these baller bands for?
These baller bands whether it be silicone or rubberized were made to create a statement and to strengthen awareness for a cause these individuals support. It is not just a fashion accessory we wear. We wear them to engage ourselves in a fight: a fight for Freedom, Justice, a fight for Lives, to gain Respect, to help us SpeakUp, to StandUP, to LiveSTRONGer, to Share the Promise, fight for Survivorship and fight against Racism.
We encourage you to wear your thoughts. Wear your own statement as we fight for what we think and know is right. To give hopes to those who lost them, to show that we are not alone because theres oneness in WE. Lets stand in solidarity with wrists held high. Lets not wait to be a victim before we ACT. A show of force is needed. This is our campaign against all social injustice.
So this I say: Baller bands,
Silicone bracelets (whatever we call it), theyre in, theyre hot, they rock and they are always OUT OF STOCK.
STRAP one now. Fight for a cause. Lift your wrists high and raise your voice.
