Beauty & Style Nena and Pasadena (Buddy Franklin's clothing line)- yay or nay?

[Gus]

What do you guys reckon? I'm thinking of getting a couple of shirts but not sold on the big print pictures on them.

Sometimes I think they look kind of like those shirts you see bogan mums get with their baby's faces printed on them. But dunno, they are trendy I guess.

*no BACCS, you can't get these at Rivers.

The 'ae' thing (I can't remember what it's called) is so pretentious and lame in a brand name.

 

[chirpymagpie]

They don't look bad. Cant say I'm a fan of having brand names all over t shirts though

lol @ tat on bottom pic guy's right wrist.

I used to like that style of shirt (hot bish looking sexy on a shirt) but you see these shirts worn everywhere now and they are pricey too (from live).

I'm guessing this will be even more expensive.

Pretty wanky eh?


Safe to say I don't have the arms to be able to pull of the singlet. Yet.

 

[electricfeel]

Would look better without the brand name largely splashed onto the front. I do like the design though. The singlet (and the dude's wrist tattoo) is incredibly wanky though.

Get these for 60-70 bucks each at Globalise here in Adelaide.

Armani Exchange?

P.S. Who are Nena and Pasadena anyway?

 

[pezz]

We need a fashion yay or nay thread to help bros with fashion decisions and save them from fails.

As for this I could take it or leave it. How much are they going for anyway?

edit- just saw the price. pretty reasonable

 

[Saint KFC]

Not a fan.

Was thinking of making one but we can just use the fashion paux one a few pages back.

I say no simply because of how ubiquitous these shirts are already. I was thinking about getting the dirty habit t-shirt, but I've seen two or three guys wearing them when out, so I ruled a line through it.

Look at the picture in true size

That picture of Buddy at the top is him in a plain white T-shirt with the picture plastered on with photoshop. Probably the others too.

Generic T-shirts with a generic print. Sheep will lap them up.

my sentiments.

 

[AG]

Too expensive as well.

 

[Gus]

I thought the price was ok.

25-50 is enough for a t-shirt imo.

Agree, I only go over 50 on going out shirts and they're usually ck or boss etc.

 

[AG]

Most of my t-shirts are those basic $30 ones from Just Jeans. A few from surf shops but even then $50 seems a bit of a stretch for a brand name.

 

[lards]

I like the last two, type of stuff you get from globalize like gus said. might head there to buy something before stereos

I'm in the same category as the above, with the exception that I don't buy overpriced ck or boss.

In response to the OP, sorry Gus I reckon the shirts look shit.

 

[showdownhero]

Will usually pay anything for a t shirt providing I like it enough (I'll admit it I am a brand snob) but I agree that shirts with brand names plastered all over it suck ass (eg Ed Hardy)
