I'm looking for tshirts, hats, sweatshirts, etc with logos of all my favorite DJ equipment manufacturers on them. Mostly I'm looking for...
Numark
Technics
Vestax
Pioneer
Sony
Ortofon
Any online stores that ship to the U.S. would be great. Thanks. |

Well I look around campus and I see tons of people wearing brand name clothing, such as:
Abercrombie, Old Navy, DC Shoe Co., Vans, Nike, Adidas, etc.
It seems like if you wanna wear certain types of clothing, t-shirts especially, its pretty hard to find t-shirts that avoid brand-name clothing, so why not dj brand? --Better than the above-mentioned stuff imo
(but I don't wear that type of clothing either) |

i suppose a technics shirt is better than a nike shirt, but, i'd rather have a plain shirt, or better yet, one that says something i actually care about like for example:

| Yeah you're right I should just be a rebel and not wear any brand name stuff, that would show the world who's boss. |

mate, the best clothing ive seen is unbranded with good all over designs ;) . tye dyed t-shirts can be amazing with all the psychedellic colours
example:

or

or in house design shirts like:
http://www.gama-go.com/engine/index...s&menu=t-shirts
rasa libre did some funky skateboard designs which they put on t shirts. the designs were really good (a bleeding butterfly and grren spyrograph type images. really cool). in all cases you can just tell the people who designed these things actually gave a about what it looked like.
i dont have a problem with logo shirts but with alot of music brands, their shirt designs are really uninspirational. theres no attempt to put the music or the product into a fashionable context. its just a bit lazy. one of my mates has a pioneer t shirt. its white. its cotton. it has pioneer in red written on. sit him behind a desk and he could pass for a pioneer telephone salesman. or a pioneer technician. or, oddly enough, a person who just likes pioneer enough that he doesnt mind becoming a walking billboard for the company despite the fact its killing his sense of fashion. gemini are moving a little bit more in the right direction. their decks arent so good and they probably should work at making them better rather than pushing the 'gemini look,' but i reckon they could do that gemini graffiti thing on a t shirt design and it could pass for something a bit more than half arsed. technics are about as faceless as you can get. if their name didnt carry so much weight in industry circles they would be able to get away with printing their name (boring font and all) onto every conceivable black or white item of clothing known to man. i expect there will be a technics condom next and ill bet you they'll even be able to make that look boring.
sony have their own product style which i admire (cuz they have this habit of making their products look desireable. you *want* their products even though they are overpriced and frankly underspecced more often than not. it doesnt extend to clothing though.
if theres a company out there that makes decks or mixers or whatever and has a brand image that is fashionable enough that you can wear - then id like to see it :D till then, i would say look into more interesting clothing :p |
