I'm wearing a black cardigan with a collar at the moment , which when I go out with my dog early each morning, as the temperature is around freezing, I zip it to the top and pull it over my chin. Am I a racist?

Only you can answer that question.

A sweater alone doesn't make anyone a racist.
Perlease!
Are those two sentences connected?
No. It's not the Gucci one, so you're fine.
For Gods sake.
I would guess from the question that yes, yes you probably are, either wearing the sweater or stark rolluck naked. What a deliberately obtuse thing to have posted :(
Ruddy ridiculous.

And I'm pretty certain no Black people will have complained.
I think the red lips are more of the reason guci is removing this item, not due to the black material which goes over the face.

Balaclavas are not racist are they?

However those lips, look like golliwog lips.

Am I a racist? . . . . . . . . . . More likely gay I would think.
pfthaha
It has to be said I wouldn't be comfortable wearing the Gucci jumper for the reasons Spath mentioned tbh, but black clothing in general is my mainstay.
Well it’s good publicity.
Market a frankly ridiculous outfit, wait for the predictable complaints and then earn lots of points and sympathy with a very public apology :-)
I like gucci jewellery but the clothing is crap (fashion wise, in my personal onion) and overpriced. (good quality though but what would you expect at £500 for a long sleeve?)
If I paid £689 for that ,being labelled a racist would be the least of my concerns. My mates would find plenty more adjectives to call me. :-)
I just looked at the link. The sweater is obviously intended to mimic a '*** Minstrel' and is intended to be racist.
Publicity stunt.

Baldric. //More likely gay I would think.// Hmmm! :0) It doesn't have Gucci on it, so I guess I'm OK.
I've just checked and all it says on the label is, 'e.b. company' XXL,
and bought it in a local charity shop for two euros. It's a great sweater, I'd hate to have to ditch it.
I'm generally not into their clothing either Spath, got a few pairs of shoes though that I practically never wear because they don't quite do it for me but I don't mind the perfume. Gucci always looks like it's trying too hard to be edgy so just ends up looking naff and tacky oft times.
Agree with retrocop. I would want someone to pay me for wearing such a ridiculous item (A fool and his money are easily parted!)

All I had to go on was the link you supplied.
