Just curious if this is the case worldwide.

Personally I have no issue with Ed Hardy, but I don’t own any of his clothing. Now, in Australia, Ed Hardy clothing has this reputation of only being worn by tools, jocks and general wankers. Even some tattoo artists I have spoken to feel this way. They like Ed Hardy but hate the guys that wear his clothes, so they won’t wear them.

If you walk past a guy on a Friday night in the city, and he’s pissing on a wall outside a pub and at the same time yelling out “someone fuck me!” chances are he’s wearing an Ed Hardy t-shirt. If it’s a polo shirt, the collar will be popped.

So, does this happen in your country too? What are your opinions? Is this just another stereotype or is it justified?

That Got Ink stuff looks good. I want that gypsy skull one, but I’m sure it’d be just ridiculous to try and get it shipped to Ontario.

I’ve got 6 tee-shirts off there dude and each one was delivered 2days later. It’s a american company and im in England and still always got here within 48hours they are really consistent with that and a great quality of tshirt. Im hoping to eventually get them all. 🙂

To be fair in my city of Leeds North England hardly see any Ed Hardy gear at all.

The sweaty scrotes that infest my city all tend to have the burberry (upper end) or Fila (peasant class end) tracksuits and caps. You just look into their souless beady eyes and that sweaty, bum fluff covered, top lip rembling over the yellow teeth and think is chav bashing time. 😀

You can usually smell them coming anyway as they never wash.

I would personally embrace an Ed Hardy explosion as it would at least lift the quality from shite taste to semi-bad taste clothing.

Take Care
