(USA Today) – Under Armour says it has yanked its “Band of Ballers” T-shirt after the company faced criticism for the shirt’s comparison to servicemen raising the U.S. flag on Iwo Jima during World War II.
The shirt Under Armour designed showed men raising a basketball hoop in a similar fashion as past military heroes.
@UnderArmour this is disgusting and a slap in the face to my fellow #Marines. “Band of Ballers” shirt? Such a shame pic.twitter.com/BXJASwCCoa
