Narco-Moda

José Jorge Balderas Garza, aka JJ, and Edgar Valdez Villarreal, La Barbie, showed, upon being presented to the media, a very similar taste in their dress: Ralph Lauren Polo shirts tight to the body, casual pants and Nike tennis shoes.

The cameras caught the aggressor of Salvador Cabanas in the Command Center of the Federal Police in Iztapalapa, wearing a blue shirt with the Polo logo on the left chest and the number 3 stamped on the right arm. He also wore cargo pants in khaki and Nike Shox sneakers without laces.

For his part, Edgar Valdez Villarreal, La Barbie, was wearing on the date of his apprehension the same style brand shirt except it was green but with the number 2 in both arms and the words "London" in the chest. His outfit was completed with faded jeans, tennis of the Nike brand, and also without laces.

However, it is noteworthy to point out that at the time of the presentation at the center of the Federal Police, La Barbie was wearing the same exact shirt design that was worn by JJ when he was also presented: The Blue Polo with the number 3.

Following the arrest of La Barbie, some merchants started selling the same type style polo through the Free Market at a cost of 400 pesos, although the actual price of the authentic polo goes for around 650,000 pesos.

The curiosity of the circumstance of both criminals wearing the same polo shirt went without noticed by users of the Twitter network, who this week managed to turn the dress in to a topic of current trends only minutes after the news begin circulating in the media.
