    New Sweatshop Labor gear!!

    in supershopper

    Posted

    I finally got a chance to get back on this site after posting the thread. I'll try to respond to as much of the hate as possible in the short time that I have. No, the clothing is not cut & sew at this point. Everything is printed on American Apparel and silkscreened at Prographix in Queens. I just scrapped enough money together to get my first major run done, so now I can let people other than friends of mine wear my stuff (all the people with plastic smiles in the photo shoot were friends of mine, happy to be helping out.) The response has been great (with the exception of some of the haters on this site.) I am not a "sneaker head" or a "streetwear whore" in any way. I have no background in fashion. The clothing thing came naturally. I was sick of the same old shit. We really don't need anymore biggie with a crown on his head or wu-tang phrases printed on tees. That shit has been rapped to death and it is tired. If you say that my stuff is "more of the same", you missed the point completely. This is just the beginning. One other thing that separates Sweatshop Labor from the rest is that 5% of all the sales from the web-store (http://www.sweatshoplabornyc.com) are donated to Human Rights Watch (http://www.HRW.org). This may not seem like a lot to you but try doing it yourself. Also, as Sweatshop Labor grows, the donations will get bigger and bigger. The brand is not some hippie-ass clothing company. It's something I thought should be done. That's all I can say now. I hope I have answered some of your questions and hate.
