Really, Really Poor Brands

quiksilver, billabong, ripcurl, o'neill clothing (not wetsuits) hate em all and I say that as a bitter and twisted surfshop owner who has watched over the past 20 years as they have sold out to the high st, cut quality in favour of sky high margins to impress shareholders in the city and shat on loyal dealers by selling their shite to tacky maxx with imaginary RRPs for the discerning bargain hunter!
The only true surf brand is now "old guys rule" straight off the beach in California and is true to its roots.
wow I feel better for that rant!
Sorry fellas.
 
First time round Burberry around the early eighties was the dogs,second time around,jesus.
Even the city shop had some bastardised version,they should have just worn a label with chav around their neck.
Tracksuit bottoms out of the gym or house,big no no.Never took to those hanging Sergio Tacchini ones when they were all the rage.
Ed Hardy inspired by tattoos ,who wants to look like you work on the waltzers.

do you have any 'bone idol' stuff? It was a little shop in Brighton about ten years ago and had some smart t-shirts.

I hate any brand of black tracksuit bottom, especially when it is tucked into turd simpsons socks, and especially when the simpsons socks are held within loud, over the top, air filled, stripey zebra looking TN's.

I'd also like to kow why the people who wear this outfit touch their cook and balls, all the time - even when walking, talking, driving and acting hard outside pubs. If I had me hand down me kecks, on a street corner at lunch time i'm pretty sure i'd get nicked. Jammy barstewards.

Man after my own heart, fantastic peice of work. As a bit of a side-thread, how long has this 'fashion' been around and why do the original fashionistas still wear it?
