The State of Hipster T-shirts

I haven't bought a single t-shirt in several years now. Most of my recent ones, my friends hooked it up.When is the Andy Warholization of the t-shirt game gonna end? Also, the all-over print hoodie has got to go. It doesn't take a fashion expert to realize that shit is not a timeless design, it is hideous.

    id rock the first two..but thats just me. I actually bought a the Patrick Ewing Lemar and Dauley tee just a few days ago but its too big for me. Anyone interested in a trade? And just say no to all over print hoodies!


    Oh and Yuichi, I have a nice Jordan/Magic Johnson jacket you might like..that is if you wear anything besides Goodwill tees,ballin' shorts and basketball shoes.

    The T-shirt trade does not fall into the hipster category! Only vintage finds! (hipster revealed)

    Okay good. This thread has reemerged.

    Discuss this all-important lesson in sociology.

    Maybe its because I'm old, but that shit looks HIDEOUS to me. yikes.


    I wish I could design my own t-shirts. they would have argyle.

    The top one is not that bad actually. But all these t-shirts are trying too hard to 1-Up on the next man. The L-R-G brand is wack as hell now.

    It depends. If you weren't born when karate kid came out then its hipster retro throw back trash. If you are 31 then its just rad and you (meaning me) should get one right away.

    those dont count in my book cuz they were riding the surfer tshirt wave of the mid 80s ala gotcha, hic, t&c. no, these shirts as far as i know were only made here in socal. there used to be a mickey mouse one where he's in the yuukata getup with a ice grill saying some shit like "ahh so ka" or something. that one was awesome too.

    Town & Country?

    Haven't thought about that design in years...

    My main concern is, will Faux_Rillz (aka Big Papi) approve of these bold and seemingly tacky designs?

    Just to clarify, a Hipster Tee shirt is something that you don't really like, but think it's ironic, correct?

    Hmm, I was thinking that the foremost requirement of a hipster t-shirt is for it to be 2 sizes too small.

    Another clothing thread, and yet more evidence of the unerringly bad dress sense of the 'strut massive. However, I am consoled by the fact that most of the enthusiasts of the "fashions" on display either can't afford them, or are so socially inept that I never need worry about seeing them out in the real world amongst other humans.

    A hipster t-shirt is something that costs 30+ dollars in an effort to 1-up on the next man. If you are sponsored or get free samples, I am not hating at all.
