Who the fuck cares if other people wear alpinestars clothes? You don’t want a company that you like to succeed? I don’t care what other people are wearing, I care what I am wearing. If I like it, and it happens to be available to general public, so be it. ---

I wear Fox t-shirts, but I also have some of their other products, such as their Mountain Biking gear. I personally won’t buy tee-shirts unless the company is somehow related to and supports the sports I participate in, (skiing/mountain biking) but I could care less what others do. ---

OHHH NOES!!! I didn’t see any MMA guys go nuts whern tools started wearing Tapout shit, who cares. In fact, if abercrombie and fitch started making really nice bike stuff for a good price, would you honestly not buy it ever just because of the label? Clothes are clothes, christ. ---

This is fucking stupid. Look at what you are wearing now. Is it Abercrombie/hollister? are you surfing? if not, POSER Is it Huge Boss? Do you work in an office and make $100k+. if not,POSER I could go ON AND ON. I buy shit because of how it fits and how it looks, I could give TWO shits who makes it. AlmostBrett and I wore Fox shirts to the fair one year, and a bunch of kids came up to us asking if we raced motocross. You should have seen their face when we said what we said. It’s like STFU and let people wear what they want. ---

Abercrombie/Hollister is NOT for surfers. Wearing that shit will get you beat up in the water probably ---

Back in the day, if I was walking through a mall decked out in my Astars shit and I saw another dude wearing the same. We could look at each other and say to ourselves “that guy has a bike. What a kick ass dude. He is my friend” One time I even got “the wave” from another guy wearing Astars.
