So my neighbor manufactures (or did) various labels......and I was at his apt last night and somehow it came up that one of them is Ed Hardy....He did some shit including some of their snow wear line and he's done with them but he's got a bunch of shit and he busts out this brand ski jacket and says, 'take it'....I object and say, 'no, no.....' but he says, 'it's a chick jacket, and what am I gonna do with it'. So considering that I've needed a proper ski jacket all winter this is shaping up to be a good deal....the only problem...................is that it's Ed Hardy..... and I'm scared that if I wear it people will think I'm a douche bag tool when in fact, I'm just happy to have a $400-$500 free jacket (with Recco which I'd never heard of but apparently if I get in an avalanche or lost or some shit, a lot of ski resorts have this receiver thing that locates it and finds you) so I mean it's kind of a safety thing....right?

Refusing to wear something that is nice and free just because it is a certain brand is just as douchey as wearing that brand exclusively IMO. Man (or woman) up and wear the expensive jacket that was free.

how does one get into the business of manufactures labelslizz got me an Ed Hardy shirt that i think i have worn twice its simple and not gaudy thank godtake it and sell it on craigslist and use that money to buy a new one?

take the jacket and deface it in some ironic way
4/18/2010 11:41:37 PM
Well I want it....and I need it....I'm just worried about the backlash..... but I mean if I get lost in an avalanche with a bunch of people, then they're gonna thank the lord me and my jacket were with them....I'm just thinking the chances of that happening aren't very likely

I was trying to get a pic of the jacket from their site, but it's loading slow as shit and now my computer is all upset with me....as for how one goes into the business of doing this, I'm not sure...I know you have to pay for a license and I have to assume there are a million rules/guidelines you have to follow but I don't know.....can't be cheap though
4/18/2010 11:50:54 PM
You could give me the jacket.
4/18/2010 11:52:05 PM
yeah, I'm not really gonna deny myself of this, I just thought it was thread worthy and I was bored. The jacket doesn't scream Ed Hardy^nah....I need it although probably not til next season [Edited on April 18, 2010 at 11:54 PM. Reason : ]

What the fuck is an "Ed Hardy?" Do people really go around looking at brands anymore and determine someone's "douchy-ness" based off of that, rather than the actual "douchy-ness" of the person?

^^you'd probably know Ed Hardy if you saw it.. looks like complete trash
4/18/2010 11:59:07 PM
it looks like someone took a bunch of graffiti mixed it with some flowers, maybe a skull or two, maybe a heart, and put a price tag on it that's about 400000% too much
4/19/2010 12:05:10 AM
^^ No, I probably would not. My Chinese roommate knows more about European and American clothing brands than I do.

Don't worry, they'd find out you're a douche bag tool even without the jacket.
