Yes, but you promote it like you work for them. Thats why i dont like NIKE, way to common. Not trying to be different, just trying to stay away from the main stream. You seem to like all the " underground" Mainstream shit. So what is the difference? ---

oh no, I have a cool sig and avatar. I don’t think that’s promoting like I work for them, I just bit the shit off someone on a DJ forum because i never have an av/sig and it caught my attention. Stay away from the mainstream or like underground mainstream, who gives a fuck. I tend to promote underground shit that’s popular among some maybe, but I just wear whatever the fuck I like regardless of what anyone else thinks of it or how much business they net. No one wears half the shit I like around here anyways. also, Nike isn’t common if you cop the right ones IMO. edit: At the end of the day, you’re probably shopping at the mall for shit while I’m copping it at boutique stores. I don’t see why this is even debatable. ---

well played on the myspace stalking :tup: and exactly, I used to shop at the mall like everyone else. Now I don’t for much minus shit I don’t feel is practical to get anywhere else. The shirt I’m wearing right now is “homemade” by a DJ friend that I share mp3s with, that runs his own little designs off and sells them. I’m not here to debate how “hip” I am, I just wear whatever I like. That shit’s very common, that’s why I changed my shit up. as for “OG, not” where the fuck did I say I was “OG” to anything? ---

Good, support locals. Thats why i started something new. It might be a joke to others, but they are the sheep that will always be slaughtered. It could evolve to something real, ya never know. P.S. im not a myspace stalker silly, its in your sig. P.P.S. I just sold a Fake BAPE KAWS hoody on Ebay today for 112.00, goes to show how stupid people are. Made over $40 off it. ---

lol good looks on the fape. mad people don’t care, and if you ever pay attention to TV, you’ll see that celebs even rock fape sometimes. There’s only one store in the US that sells it, so it’s hard not to get fucked by fakes. ---

Mass produced clothing, by definition, isn’t uncommon or unique. Unless you’re making or buying one-of-a-kind clothing, your clothing is not original. YOU might be, but your clothing isn’t. NO Nike sneakers are truly unique or rare, since they make 1,000+ of them in every size. I think you get my point. The whole argument plus photos to back it up, is silly to me. ---

I personally enjoy the more verbally agressive t-shirts. For example: ![http://la.gg/v/000_0554.jpg](http://la.gg/v/000_0554.jpg) ![http://la.gg/v/000_0555.jpg](http://la.gg/v/000_0555.jpg) ---
