This was like 10 years ago when a pair of Mossimo shorts used to cost like $40. Now they've filed for bankruptcy and are on sale at Target (I'm looking at the Targe ad right now in fact...I wonder what happened to them? maybe it was the $40 shorts)...

I remember when everyone had those Hypercolor shirts or the NEW Edition sweatshirts, way back in the day 1990-1992.

haha yeah, I still have a few old school mossimo shirts around....one that says "the future is wow" and another one....it's too bad they had to sell out, but I suppose if I was in a dying company I'd do what I had to to save it.

Boy do I ever remember those overpriced t-shirts. Funny how certain brands or styles suddenly take off like that. Whenever it happens you know it won't last long, though.

I paid $30 for two shirts, one says "Crap" on it, and the other one says 'You Are Dumb" in binary.

Im not currently wearing a shirt, but to answer your hidden cryptic question, I dont own designer clothes, because I dont believe in that crap. Most of my shirts are plain coloured.

It's not cool anymore? :eek:

Well, then it's a good thing I cut the outer tag off the last Mossimo shirt I bought before I wore it for the first time! :p

Heh, heh, I refuse to advertise clothing that I'm wearing, so whatever brand I'm wearing never goes out before I'm actually tired of the shirt. I think I'm pretty good most of the time mixing and matching stuff from many different stores/brands.

Dude you're getting jipped. I can get those EXACT same shorts for $20.

Check out Blue Fly for starters.

I'm not into that overpriced designer stuff either. Most of my clothes can be considered "no name" I guess. The only "trendy" store I'll shop at is Old Navy because it's so damn cheap. $25 (Canadian) for a nice looking, comfortable pair of jeans. Nice looking shirts are $10-$20 CDN each, etc...

If you know how to work it, you can get Name Brand stuff (Polo...not cheap Polo Sport either, Perry Ellis, Desiel, A&F etc) for way cheaper than Old Navy.

It helps if you live in a big city. Just go down to the garment district. And no they're not fakes.
