in my opinion its fine as long as it fits with whatever you've got on, provided it isn't a "just copped this from Hot Topic" level of washed out pre-fab beatles shirt, but taste is subjective. I conclude that they're the least worst graphic tees

Why? What if you just really like a band and just want to support them?

Do you go around telling people they can't wear a band shirt because they didn't get it at a concert? What's the difference in that and just buying it online?

there's an obvious difference in diy and industrially produced/made to order tees; ie heat transfer vs screenprint. anyone can tell the difference in person, industrial produced graphics simply don't look as good.

you should also be supporting your local scene/bands that tour through your scene, not just being an internet fan. why are you even repping a band you haven't seen play?

go and buy their records and cds at a store. tapes and merch are gig loot.

It pisses some people off but personally I think bootlegs are cool. imo authorship is an outdated paradigm but not everyone agrees. the heads of LACR and LIES for example have called out bootlegs of their tees on IG before - I don't get it, house/techno of all things is built around uncredited samples and there's nothing wrong with that.

what I'd recommend is, you should either at least fuck with the crew you're repping or they better be distant/big enough that they're not really a family and you aren't gonna be bumping into any of them at a local party. i.e. I wouldn't rep fake LACR when I'm in LA but I might the Screamers or say, Janus (who are berlin based), you know?
And also, don't just copy something they already have on a tee. go ahead and lift the designs from their records or whatever, but it's a chance to personally do it in the way you want while still repping them.

But yea, fucking go for it. I wish I still had access to a screenprinter

>>11238351
Try actually going out to shows more often. "Concerts" aren't just something you go out to once a year when either your dad's or highschool best friend's favorite band comes by to sell out your local amphitheater. If that's the life you're leading, no problem, but you've got no business wearing band tees, fucking poser.

Not that shirt. Boughten them off ebay and other sites and the quality is straight garbage. Infact dont buy anything from EW cause theyre jews in general. Bongripper prints their stuff on Gildan Softstyle and while I despise gildan its definitely a quality shirt.

And nothing from sleep either, everything is on gildan or alstyle both of which are garbage.

>thinking there's a difference between "concert"/"show"/"niggers playing music on a stage for others to hear"

Being this anal about semantics just proves that you're a fucking nigger and probably a Bernie cuck to boot. Stop caring so much about what other people think/do.

If someone wants to support a band that's just fine and dandy. And if you think there's a difference between the clothing sold at shows and the clothing sold by the band's merch website, you're a complete fucking idiot.

Mescalinum United sucks btw and you should be ashamed that you like such retarded noise.

look senpai you don't need to wear a band tee just because you're seeing a band play. just dress cool and be cool. if it's a rave or there'll be a mosh make sure your bottom layer is ventilated. like fuck. look at heidi's diary or something.

if it's noise, easy: just croppde black trousers (jeans if you're a loser), black tee and wool overcoat. hell wear that anywhere, no one fucking cares if you dress quiet, just don't be a tryhard yuppie sperg. get denim overalls from ben davis

actually what's the deal even with raw denim? I've never understood the fad. I don't think I know anyone who's owned any and anyone I've seen wearing it looked stiff and uncomfortable, but I assume that might just be because you wouldn't really notice it's raw if it's broken in so it's a biased sample.

but otherwise I've just seen pics online that look awkward and ugly, but then those are people showing off fades. what's your opinion?

It breaks in quick and is comfy. I got a pair yesterday that was 2% elastane, and it's already pretty comfy.

why are you using fashion to represent your music likes and not your fashion likes? do you really identify so heavily for with your personal curation that you need to signal it to everyone who sees you?
