This perception contributed to the belief that zoot suit wearers were being disrespectful or unpatriotic, especially during a time when fabric was rationed for the war effort. The combination of these feelings, along with existing racial prejudices, led to violent confrontations.

Many servicemen returning from the front lines were deeply affected by horrors of war and loss of their comrades. The flamboyant and carefree style of zoot suits, which included oversized jackets and wide-brimmed hats, was seen by some as a stark contrast to the sacrifices being made by soldiers.
