what's everyone's favorites? here's the categories...
1. favorite single tee (graphic).
2. favorite blank (just the shirt itsel, not considering graphics)
3. favorite overall company.
4. top three favorite colors in order.
here's mine (though i go through phases).
1. probably the kate moss tee by supreme. (maybe because it was so ridiculously sought after)
2. probably prps simply because they use a type of cotton with a coarse sort of weave (the cut is more a fashion style, but it usually suits me since i'm pretty lean). texture reminds me a little of denim. second would be any type of premium weight, ring-spun, brushed cotton blank.
3. tough one... possibly supreme, but their graphics are really hit or miss. i wear a lot of uxa (again hit or miss).
3. white (no thought goes into wearing white), particular shade of pink (though i'm kinda switching to lavender, again because it looks great with denim), heather (looks good with almost anything).

1. favorite single tee (graphic).
Serial killer had some dope shirts, I don't know if they're still around. They had one with this dude holding up a crack vial (I think it was a movie scene), said 'For Those About to Rock'
2. favorite blank (just the shirt itsel, not considering graphics)
I don't really have to say much about this one. Any shirt would do, I prefer a comfortable one.
3. favorite overall company.
I dont know if Serial Killer is still around, like I said, but they had some funny shit. I seem to just pick them up here and there, one way or another, don't put too much thought into any particular brand.
4. top three favorite colors in order.
I think any shade of blue is nice. burgundy is hot cakes. that traditional t-shirt grey is cool too...

1. A cody hudson tshirt made by upper playground, the 12oz team one, who did that design btw?
2. When i wanna wear single colors with nothing on them i wear polos,
mostly lacoste because of the color variety and the thin cool fabric, i buy blanc tees mostly judging by the fit though
3. I dunno, i just pick stuff i like, volcom always has some nice
4. Black, always dope. Deep green (although its hard to find dope graphics on green tees for some reason) white, in my opinion the dopest choice with denim.

beastie boys t shirt from licensed to ill tour, 1986. it used to black but is now grey. holes all worn through it, total piece of shit. beastie logo on front and 'GET OFF MY DICK' on the back in mustard yellow. it would probably be worth a fortune if i took it down to soho.

a friend of mine has an ancient beastie boys tshirt too, its royal blue with the airforce beastie boys logo in front and with red ms-paint style spray paint 'fight for your right to party' on the back.
He doesnt even like the dudes but every attempt i ever made to trade that shirt failed miserably...

Quoted post
The fact that you lump Stussy in with Hoby & quicksilver shows how little you know about the brand today or the culture in general. I mean they ceased being a mainly surf brand long before they became commerically popula in the 90s.
Stussy had a bad spell in the early to mid 90s when they became co-opted and pandered to a frat boy crowd. But Stussy is one of the few brands to ever to comeback from that kind of disgrace to recapture their original core audience. They not only desreve props for managing to pull that off, but for turning shit around rather than staying the course for a quick payoff.
You can not like their designs, but give them their due respect. It's always funny that the tell tale sign of knowing if someone is actually keeps up and understands the culture is if they snicker when stussy is mentioned as if it's coed-naked sports tees or something.
Misteraven

actually stussy segments their line into two categories. there's the niche stuff that developed for nyc, london, japan and is more considered and exclusive. then there's a more dilluted range they develope that though is far from mass market, still makes it's way into random surf/skate/snowboard shops. i find it impressive how they can keep both balls rolling, but somehow they manage. i believe that the exclusive stuff is designed with the help of james jebbia (supreme, union, and stussy nyc shop owner) and is designed and marketed independently from the rest. at least the t-shirts and much of the fleece stuff.

12-23-2004, 08:52 PM
thank you for the unnecessary condescending attitude and the elitist pretentiousness that everyone already associates with shit like this. way to prove them right.
you're right, I know nothing about the brand today. what tipped you off? was it the question mark at the end of the sentence or some sort of kreskin clairvoyance?
in the 90's, when stussy was big, it was fucking homo, sorry. if they managed to bounce back from that, congrats. if they're making dope stuff now, awesome. but you said yourself that at one point they fell off, so you know my question was not unwarranted. i appreciate the answer, but could have done without the attitude.

1. I have a tee made by IZM which is bassically the Shermin Williams logo but instead of paint pouring over the world its a red marker.
2. I have a royal blue polo with a white and blue trim.
3. I'd say this blank tee company I'm wearing right now works good, which is BNK.
4. Brown, Green, Darker Blue.

be aware we have a pretty strict policy about soliciting. though we're a little more forgiving in this forum, we still do not want people pushing their own product at every opportunity. the occassional plug (when in context), is fine, and a single thread introducing the brand for the sake of discussion and critque is cool, but straight solicitation is against our rules.
