My point is there is nothing wrong with spending $65 on a t shirt. my arguement is with ppl do it only to fit in with the other douchebags who wear the same clothes and think they are better/cool because of wearing said clothes. 3 years ago I didn't see anyone wearing ed hardy. And all of a sudden it's popular and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. That's my problem with ed hardy....

There is a certain "prestige" i guess if thats the word to certain things when they come into style. I dont beleive people wear ed hardy because others wear it, or because of how much it costs, but because its known to be stylish. Its as simple as that. Everyone in one way or another buys things because of the reputation that precedes it, or the fact that its considered a nice item. Otherwise where would we be? with everyone not caring what they wear and higher end companies going out of business? No, that would be stupid its part of what makes the economic world go round.
