德国

I see people wearing those jackets everyday. In fact, everything wearable is available here in the German black-red-golden, some pieces even featuring the German Eagle. For me, brought up with the kind of nationalism that consists of proudly avoiding any nationalistic symbolism, its a weird sight. It also makes me understand what a Jamaican in Germany feels, at the sight of people's t-shirts emblazoned with his country's colours and name (not to speak of a particular and still fictious political coalition). Most of all, these jackets attest to the innocence of symbols in other (here, Chinese) contexts. One can almost shed the idea of nationalism and simply acknowledge, black-red-golden actually looks cool.
