Louis Vuitton recently released its latest “Jamaican Stripe Jumper,” which was said to be inspired by the Jamaican flag. There’s just one problem: the colors. Jamaica’s national flag is green, yellow and black, while the three wide stripes on the menswear sweater are green, yellow and red, as reported by The Guardian.
