Affliction shirts?

I've checked some affliction stuff and heard of ed hardy. I'm not sure if it's just the price or the fact it's so overly mentioned, yet to purchase any thing.

Acrylic Paint Pens. I've painted SO many leather jackets for friends over the years because I can look at a picture, and draw it back the same way. I had heard though, that my method was too time consuming, and to just use regular acrylic paint. BAD BAD BAD IDEA on leather. That green sleeve on mine, I did this past year, and because the coat on it isn't thin, it sticks to everything and needs touching up.

If you can't draw or paint, I think you should buy some Elmers Acrylic Paint Pens and take the jacket, and pens to one of your talented tattooing friends. One thing about painted on black leather though, to get colors to pop, use AT LEAST two base coats of white wherever the picture is going. Looks 100x better. Here's an example of a jacket I did like that, the girl wearing the jacket is named Jordie, and is my last guitarists sister. All of the white was done with 3 layers of paint, and so was the Exploited skull, red sleeve, and Chaos U.K. logo.

(top of the back is a Krum Bums logo... thought I'd point that out to you.)







-And to keep this on topic, I know the jacket, being at $700 is expensive, but I kinda see why it is after really thinking about it.

Yeah, it's distressed and looks older and used, but I'm sure every jacket like that is hand done, and so is the stitching and the sewing. And if anyone here has ever sewn in leather, you know just how hard it is to do.

Would I pay $700 for it? Nah, would I pay $80 for pants? No, I barely pay $10... but like I said before, if YOU can afford them, go for it and wear it proudly.

yeah, lmao...no one here is bragging about spenfing too much on clothes, only people bragging about not spending anything or making thier own clothes. is it supposed to make me feel any less respectable? beats looking like (see dudes sig above)

Bro, no one was "bragging" - And I didn't start saying anything about making my own stuff to make anyone feel less respectable, in fact I said if you want to buy it, go for it.

I'm just saying, with a little work, you can make clothes like Afflictions and spend WAY less money. Screen printing isn't hard, stenciling on clothes isn't hard, and painting a jacket to how you want it to look isn't hard, and it's more rewarding to me at least, to make something yourself and take pride in it.

You take shots at people for how they look, does that make you feel more respectable?

I'm sure if you shopped around you can find it your size. Randy Orton is like, 6'5'', and wears it all the time, so just try to find a bigger size.
