Why ed hardy is for douches

But if you talk to people in the tattoo world, Ed Hardy is known as a tattoo legend who struck it rich—big time—by having his name splashed across wack clothes. In it, he explains how Christian Audigier , the fashion designer who licensed Hardy's tattoo art, is a douchebag. This prompted Hardy to say, " Morons dehumanized it," in reference to his brand, and thought Audigier's insistence that trashy celebrities wear the brand brought disgrace to his once-reputable name as an artist.

I have my expensive throwback jerseys of my favorite legendary athletes, and then I have my Kanye West Gucci and Louis Vuitton gear when the time is right of course.

I wear what I want to wear cause I want to rock it, not cause 50 other steroid abused guys with no game are wearing the same thing in the clubs. Moral of the story is be happy and that is by being yourself. Don't try too hard to be something that you clearly are not and whatever you do don't be a douche bag. Enjoy our content?

They are not all that popular among the rest of the population for two reasons. Second, as Ed Hardy t-shirts have become more and more associated with douchebags, non-douchebags who might be willing to buy and wear one just because they like it might opt not to do so for fear that people will assume that they are a douchebag.

The result is that whatever initial popularity Ed Hardy t-shirts had among douchebags has turned into an exclusive association with douchebags. A couple of months ago, my 7-year-old son was wearing a tattoo-style t-shirt from Target. I was in a quandary! Was this guy asking me if I was trying to make my son into a douchebag because I think douchebags are cool? Did he just not know that Ed Hardy shirts were associated with douchebags?

He just likes that shirt. Sad thing is that I actually really like the way Ed Hardy stuff looks. Green Bean hit the nail on the head. Also Jon Gosselin, the reigning king of the douchebags, seems to have a real fondness for them.
