Why do people like ed hardy

Yes, if you wear Ed Hardy and you are a 20 something douchebag walking around projecting your hostility? Its called the sheep mentality. I wear what you wear because you know what you are doing.

Like being in line at the Grocery Store. You see a line open up and you run for it. Thats called individuality folks. Feel it and live it. Can anyone help me out here,Why!? Not even out of irony, I just really like the shoes. My girlfriend who is not white has two pairs that I think are adorable. Please explain-sincerely, confused cracker.

I get nothing but compliments from everyone, everywhere I go. I cannot stand Ed Hardy. Everytime I think of Ed Hardy, I think of a has-been rock star who is trying to relive the glory days.

Also, not all white people know who Ed Hardy is. Revelatory, really. Is this really a necessary hair to split? For not giving a crap, it takes some time to set up a profile and reply to it. There are Ed Hardy cells popping up all over Sydney, Australia. That is exactly it. The Burberry thing is so bad in England. It is funny being in America where Burberry relatively is still considered a high-end brand but back in Leeds it is just associated with council queens and chavs.

Forget about showing your patriotism like most Americans do by serving the country as a volunteer or in the armed forces, apparently all you have to do is hate soccer! These clothes look like crap. MT-LA and Miami have so much crime they arent even worth discussing. Go put on your Ed Hardy Hoodie and hide your face in shame. Visit my blog. So, by reading some of the posts here on Ed Hardy, it sounds like the big objection from white people of which I am one are the t-shirts which I totally understand because the look asinine.

There are, however, many other brands of ridiculous looking t-shirts that look like Ed Hardy wannabes. I love going down to Venice for dinner — lots of good restaurants.

I also ride my road bike through Venice cause I like the atmosphere. But if is now as unauthentic as you say it is then I will avoid it like the plague, except for the Sidewalk Cafe — I love that place! Maybe clothes from Obey by Shepherd Fairey? All of these should score you major, major points with the right white people.

There are two kinds of white people that wear Ed Hardy. The first being the tool who believes a t-shirt will make them instantly cool. You can see these people at your local mall checking you out to make sure you are checking them out. This is about Then there is the. Recently at a gas station I had an exchange of words with a I told him my shirt was from I can only assume he was on his way to the local high school which he never graduated from to hit on some high school sophomores that would be impressed by his matching shirt and trucker hat.

They took an authentic american art and made it ridiculous. If you have a problem with understanding English, I heartily recommend Hooked on Phonics. Failing that, there are always those English as a Second Language courses. Now I can finally say hey!! Learning so much! For the record, I adore Ed Hardy and I am about as white as they come.

It is my opinion that overexposure is ruining Ed Hardy. The moment the company inked a deal with VH-1 and reality sluts started running around in Hardy swag, is the moment the brand was taken too far. In the US, um. They also like raised trucks there. Especially coupled with a dagger through the skull.. Trust me. I thought this discussion was about Ed Hardy t-shirt wearers.

I agree. This is not the platform in which to grind those particular axes. Much too common for my taste. I just took a huge fresh shit, and I used an Ed Hardy joint to wipe my stinking hairy asshole.

See Ed Hardy is good for something. After I read this, I went to a party, bent down to tie my shoe and the person standing in front of me was wearing shoes by who? Ed Hardy. Now I know where to focus said hatred. Thanks SWPL! On this subject, I hate seeing people wearing tapout shirts as they are almost invariably skinny fat guys who have never trained a martial art in their life. Its like every paunchy idiot thinks tribal designs and hair gel make up for being unfit.

This story is so true, especially the part about not being able to wear these clothes ironically! My mates who bought knockoff ed hardy clothes in thailand because they thought the tattoo prints were cool — then realising the douchness of the brand when they got home — threw them all out rather than let anyone think they paid full price for them.

These two guys are my friends!!!!!!!!!!! They have seriously been wearing Ed Hardy since before any one else even heard of them. They single handly brought the style to the Chicago club scene! Wow, you are so lucky to be friends with two people who single handly brought the dumb shit douchebag style to the Chicago club scene. This is the lamest shit ever. Try showing up to the Concours in Monterey or to the Casino in Monte Carlo wearing this and see what how wealthy they think you are.

I know Afflication has been mentioned, but did anyone mention that these shirts only come in super thin fat guy nipple showing material, and that the only size is extra smedium? Think about that for a moment. Ed Hardy, what the fuck? Must be shit. Passing through airports this past week I noticed the east side of the Rockies has lost its mind on Ed Hardy.

May I suggest their brain has turned to shit. I myself dont care for soccer, I think if it doesnt require the use of your upperbody, then its hardly a sport. But you cant hate europe, or gay people, whites love them both too much. This person just doesnt understand…all he sees is fancy jewelry and Escalades, and thats what they consider successful…. What this person doesnt understand..

Instead of leasing a cadilac to look rich, we buy solar panels and composters. White people like looking poor so people like MT dont rob them. White people like to travel the world, we spend money on experiences like throwing clay pots in Bhutan, and giving nets to children in Ethiopia. We give to charity instead of flaunting our wealth. Alot of the money we make goes into paying off student loans, something MT will never have to worry about.

I like the picture of Brett Micheals and his show, Rock of the Herpes Bus, or whatever that show is called. I just saw it online i dont pay for commercial movies but that movie was rather cute, and the ed hardy scene pretty much summed it up that douches wear ed hardy.

Ralph Lauren is always acceptable.. Obey is good, not to many people know of it, but some things say OBEY on the shirts and such so stay away from that. Try Threadless. Penguin is a fairly good preppy brand, perry ellis is ok, im trying to think of things available to the masses in the US without searching for the great obscure designers in Orslo.

Vintage stores are really the best bet for great clothes because they are unique and nobody would have it. If you wear it; you suck. If you own it; you suck. If you rave about it; you suck. Ed hardy the actual tattooer is great, too bad he sold his name and some flash to a douche same douche who took von dutch and raped his name who made it into mall trash wear. Look I wear clothes with tattoo designs on them!

You think being a banquet manager is glamorous? Oh hell yes, the Turks DO wear that shit. I lived in Berlin for long enough to witness this. Und einfach peinlich! The only clothing-related issue you should worry about is animals that are tryin to make you shit your pants…. Are you ready to not having… are you ready… to st…. I only start to see these when I get further out west, into Appalachia, as opposed to on the coast proper.

I thought my Nazi uniform was pretty fly. I shot a game of pool with this girl. She had a big Buddha on her shirt and on closer inspection, it was as Ed Hardy shirt. When I made a comment about it, she was embarrassed and said that the design was so good that she was just able to ignore that it was Ed Hardy. If I saw someone wearing one I would think they had terrible taste. I like discreet or appropriate ones that are framed well on the body and generally well-considered.

I like to see the outside perspective on our often hilarious traits. Should you ever cross paths with any of the species avoid eye contact lest the gaudiness come off on you. Point in case i was wearing evisus in by bootlegs were ever where i stopped wearing them. Then U.

S rappers jumped on evsiu and they kinda came back. They never fully recovered amongst my peer group, due to females inability to distinguish real from fake. They just assumed they were fake. Ed Hardy is def. Come on, everyone hates people who wear Ed Hardy — nothing to do with race. You either wear that disgusting shit or you hate it. Young African-Americans. It must be a regional thing. I recall a certain very strong Von Dutch backlash years back. That was a very white people thing, and everyone en mass stopped wearing Von Dutch clothing.

Basically a douchebag. Ed Hardy is like Von Dutch. Haha, judging by that picture I can really see the point. One problem though is you have to know something about the brand or the image surrounding it for the statement to be true. That, and the fact that particular kind of white person are known to like or in this case, like to hate the stuff on the blog.

Hipsters are not known to like Muskets and the Boston Tea Party. I love that this article also features 7 ads for Ed Hardy shirts and trucker hats. Not that is ironic. Is that like, beyond ironic? My husband is white but he loves Ed Hardy clothing. He even collects them. My white friends love Ed Hardy clothes too. Hi really like your Blog, what are you thoughts on hatha yoga?

I also found this really good guide on yoga that I think I might get, do you know any one that has got it and if it is any good? I hate ed hardy and starbucks and i am not white. Not even close. I am not even American. But i really really hate ed hardy and the idiots that wear them.

I also hate Lil Wayne. And the whole garbage ass southern rap. I also hate cheney and condoleesa the skeeza. It signifies to me that they are an automaton clone who cannot think for themselves and at least a little bit douche.

I like Ed Hardy. We really live in a world if limites selection of clothing. What also gets to me with this ed hardhy ghetto trash people is how everyone is into this face look with the cheeks and chins being out there.

Enjoyed reading your blog. Keep up the good work! Clicked some ads for you. This article is kinda dumb, because Ed Hardy is obviously just ugly tacky shit. I know it seems crazy now, in , to think that even a single person wore those stupid tattooed shirts, but I checked online, and they did. Not me… but only because I was still finishing up my 20 year sponsorship with Hypercolor by Generra.

The first vending machine opened in the bathroom at Hyde. From America to horrified nations throughout the world, powerless to stop the insidious spread of skeleton shirts and gothic crosses. You are absolutely right. Needless to, I do hate Ed Hardy clothing.

Hate sometimes unites, and a general term that is disgusting to the majority helps in breaking the ice at times. Ed Hardy was cool for about two weeks — until people realized youre paying hundreds from bullshit. Wearing an Ed Hardy T-shirt is no less than walking around and flaunting how big of a tool you are. Its true, there is a certain stereotype of ed hardy weares that are the scum of the earth, biggest douche bags you will ever meet sort of people, but these comments seem to be attacking the brand as a whole.

I know after 40 years old you lose touch but WTF? I went to Vegas last month and all I saw were dudes in these silly Ed Hardy shirts. WTF is ed hardy!? I sure hope your economy continues crashing and more of you lose your middle class home to the banks to get a taste of being poor like half a million of you already did. Do you think there is also an ankle bracelet lifestyle, a lipstick lifestyle or a earing lifestyle?

Proof positive that wealth does not equal class. Then get with the program!! Oh, how I hate Ed Hardy! This made me bust out loud laughing. My mom bought a pair of Ed Hardy sandals. I told her she absolutely could not wear them. This is fucking stupid.. I am white and I think Ed Hardy is a kewl brand! I also fucking love the perfume! You need to take this stupid ass racist shit off the fucking web! You motherfuckers! Fuck you. No one gives a rats ass what you think and there is no such thing as pure white.

Everyone has been mixing with everyone nowadays so you can shut your fucking face! Ed Hardy is by far the worst brand in the world — u douchebag! Erik, local country favorite in Oklahoma, loves Ed Hardy. Looks really fantastic clothing really my favorite style. Can I find it somewhere here in Greece where i live? Ed Hardy is a complete joke. It reaks of hair-gel, steroids, flat-billed lids, Axe body spray and roofies, aka GDI douchebaggery. But when you buy something as trashy as Ed Hardy or Affliction, you are:.

MTV is slowly turning this country into a bunch of spray-tanned, roid-injecting, hair-gelled douches. He was revolutionary, the same way sailor jerry was. The thing that really gets me is all the assholes that wear the clothing but really have no idea about Ed Hardy the artist. Most of these chodes dont even have a single tattoo on their body. On another note, at the night club i work at we rate the douchebaggery of the night on a scale of affliction to ed hardy.

Have you ever seen the show Rock of Love on Vh1? All those skanks, including the white ones, wear Ed Hardy. The reason I dislike Ed Hardy clothes and everything else, because seriously, the designs are everywhere. Some from the company TattooJohnny. One of the guys that worked for the company jacked the designs off the website, and told the company that they were his own.

The only reason that you are commenting abou Ed Hardy T-shirts is so you can tune your google ads to make some extra click-through dough. Same for the previous post on Bob Marley…so transparent. You are not longer white; you have evolved to translucent. Duh — to the person who said the designs are stolen — Ed Hardy is incredibly famous in the tattoo for several decades. He almost single handedly archived the history of the art form long before it was cool to do so.

These comments are crazy. Tatoos are cool?!?!?! I always thought of them as a way to identify low-class people. These ed henry shirts look to me like clothes for low-riders. Not sure what Lillian is talking about. The same people who wear that Von Dutch crap.

So what the hell you talking about? Usually I see Ed Hardy worn by white people. Plenty of Ed Hardy there.

The tattoo artist that has revolutionized how tattoo artwork is made. On the other hand, the licensed clothing line that Christian Whateverthefuckhislastnameis is absolute bullshit.

Along with the air fresheners, shot glasses, calenders, clocks, condoms, jewelry, hats, toilet paper, and asparagus with his logos on it. But this is the reason that Mr. Hardy threatened the designer to a large settlement court case to take his name off this kitsch crap that is being peddled for small fortunes to douchebags with too much money. Majority of the Ed Hardy clothing I see people wearing is worn by Black females and european males.

For some reason it is acceptable to wear it to a club and not ok for me to wear a jersey?? But thats a whole different topic. You dont need a big huge label to know brand name.

Ed Hardy is shitty for many reasons. Also, I happen to love Skin Industries clothing line for the simple fact that they have neat designs go over the shoulders and onto the backs of the shirts. I think you are generalizing white people wayyy too much lol. It features articles, haikus, comics, and many other hilarious things. Do ya think!? I used to be cool!? How did we get laid back then? If reproduction was based on fashion, white people would have died out long ago….

Hmm, I agree with the doucheness of the Ed Hardy shirts. However, they are an easy targert , and its usually white people wearing them. But there was actually a time when Ed Hardy was a lesser known clothing line. It was completely different than other brands, and had a cool, vintage style to it YES, I like vintage, sue me.

Uhm, just wanted to point out that Ed Hardy clothing is shit because of the poor quality and extremely ugly design. Oh, I say! What are you bringing to Pebble Beach this year? The Alfa 8C B? Perhaps the Voisin? You guys NEED your money. Waste it on me instead. Thanks so much! You thought it.

I know you did. Stop lying. I knew it. I highly recommend checking it out here:. This is true. Or — if you literally have a badass motorcycle and look the part — then go ahead. Likewise, people who read this blog might be unfamiliar with Ed Hardy. But, as a white person familiar with the brand, I can tell you that Ed Hardy is horrible, horrible clothing. I thought white people loved Ed Hardy, because it is usually a majorityof them that parade around in it.

Black People wear it. And they dont even know who he is. I think that if they knew who Ed Hardy was, that they would never wear the stuff. Those cloths are just bought because they are over priced. Therefore they must be good. As much as those people seem to be white, they are actually Armenian. Hip Hop is cool?!!!!

A true hip-hop enthusiast would be much less likely to be seen wearing those types of garments and would also be much less likely to have a concealed weapon. Although… Guns are pretty fun…. I hate people who wear Ed Hardy! Ed Hardy looks like the work of someone who just got photo shop and got a fantasy book and rendered some stuff out and put it on a shirt.

Clothes are not supposed to look like an anime or a tapestry. There already is a blog about what black ppl like…. You can probably thank Christian Audigier for ruining Ed Hardy for you. You probably also love UFC or hang out with guys that do. I am not racist, 2. I wear ed hardy, and also have alot of his purses, and 3. Actually, I noticed Ed Hardy t shirts being worn by a certain kind of kid in Austria.

Begin Austria, the kids were all white, and they were all kind of boring 15 year olds who liked to party all the time. So…maybe the dislike is more American thing? And not racist. But, still a generalization. Have fun, live happily. Second, fashion has always been directly connected with cultural associations, always. Check out this article. Really , what I mean is we will agree that they are wrong! COM…speaks volumes. And yes they are going to see that UFC fight since they fight here.

I think that correlates well with why you like Ed Hardy. I live in Michigan, and I live on the rich side of the state. Ed Hardy is retarded as fuck. Buy some Lacoste or get the fuck out. Wow is all I have to say. Some of these comments are so weird and do not make any sense. Ed Hardy is just another over-priced clothing line that blew up and probably will fade soon. That is my opinion and everyone is entitled to their own. This is supposed to be FUNNY though and not taking so serious, so everyone just relax with the racist crap…and like the person said a few days ago..

Ok off topic sorry anyways whether you like Ed Hardy or not, this article was funny. I saw two guys wearing Ed Hardy shirts today in my calc class, and I could barely contain my urge to rip them off and burn them. You do know that this blog is operated by white people right? Or, are you just too stupid to see the humor in it? This entire website is a joke. Obviously you missed the memo, but white people love laughing at unenlightened folk like yourself even more than they hate Ed Hardy.

This website is going downhill. This entry exemplifies the downfall of Stuffwhitepeoplelike, its a completely reasonable thing for white people to dislike, and no reason is given for why its so wrong. Ed Hardy is the whitest of white bread clothes.

Its the de rigueur uniform of white Douchebags and a great deal of douchebaggery is committed while wearing ed hardy t-shirts. But it gives a really funny analysis of the way white people view the world. White people are excellent at defining themselves by distaste of other people.

And if hating people who wear Ed Hardy is seen as something completely natural then it should go on the list! I always found it especially strange, that the white folk who loathe the Ed Hardy line get quite excited and will readily show off their ACTUAL tattoos.

Fucking gay Ed Hardy. That may have been the most unintellegent and incomprehendable thing that I have ever attempted to read. A blind person could have typed out a comment with less grammatical and spelling errors.

Either way, Ed Hardy is for douche bags. If you take the shirts for what they are, and not who is associated with wearing them, a lot of them are well designed and pretty unique.

The material is made and cut for people that are in shape. And the design is for people who want to stand out. What does that add up to? The perfect douchebag bait. But then again, have you seen a fat guy in a one? They would look more even more pathetic!

But just as fast as they have risen, they will fall. White people with double wides to call home? Now when are you gonna share the wealth with your fellow white men? You know, the ones from the deep south who attend Evangelical Protestant churches with whiter skin, blonder eyes or reddish hair, and Scotch-Irish surnames? Correction: bluer eyes! Damn, I gotta slow down typing on here. The current Wikipedia image of a Chav is hilarious. Ed Hardy Shirts are a passing wave, they are indefinitly on thier way out.

To anybody who said anything relating to social status or class, unfortunatly there are 2 things money cannot buy- Love and Good Taste. Sorry about your luck kids. So, by your logic, a solid-gold toilet bowl would be worthy of praise. I guess white people can not bring themselves to embrace a lil wardrobe spice. Or wearing any of the clothes you find at most yard sales. I think Angelina Jolie is a ghoul.

I think Jennifer Aniston is boring. A big part of the appeal of the Japanese tradition is the abstract look of the background elements that frame and unify the subjects of the mural style body pieces.

This attention to placement and body-wide composition is a defining characteristic of the current tattoo renaissance. Yesterday I walked to the bank in my small Hudson River town, and passed a young woman wearing a half sleeve tattoo with lovely Hokusai-like waves splashing down her upper arm.

Hello, Ed Hardy! Competition shows do better. I love the few minutes at the end of Best Ink and Ink Master when the judges critique the work of the competing tattooists, expounding always too briefly on technical considerations: the shading, highlights, scale, perspective, strength and consistency of line, color combinations, logic of the light source, and adherence to conventions like the proper positioning of a pinup. If concept were a criterion, everyone would be knocked off the show on the first challenge.

Lakra, one of the few tattooists to gain purchase in the blue chip art world. Hardy embraced and cultivated pioneering artists like Freddy Negrete, who brought elegant black and gray fine line tattooing from prison to the public, and Leo Zulueta, who popularized neo-tribal tattoo.

He supported young artists, including women, as far back as the early s, when California artist Jamie Summers worked in his shop, and New Mexico artist Cynthia Witkin appeared in his magazine. Hardy has also been an astute commentator on the sociology of tattoos.

Tattoos are indicators, or little vents to their psyche. In the mid s, many Hardy fans, myself included, were confounded by the contagion of Hardy merchandise suddenly flooding stores — as, evidently, was Hardy.

Paradoxically, the Hardy brand made a man so deserving of recognition famous for all the wrong reasons. It trades in his early work — precisely the tradition-bound Americana he wanted to transmute into something more expansive and artistic. In Wear Your Dreams , he writes:.

I think I understand what Christian saw in the designs. They were meant to be emblematic, like heraldry. Heavy shading, dark and light values, and an instantly recognizable silhouette of the shape. And they represent. This stands for me […] in some small but important way. But emblems designed to hug bodies look terrible on hoodies — and worse on trucker hats. Take a look at these ed hardy inspired tattoo pics What is Ed Hardy's target age group?
