dear jonislike

hi

its painfully obvious you are somehow involved with twelve bar.

that's not allowed here... unauthorized promo is bad. particularly

unauthorized promo from brands that sufu hq knows are going to

get flamed up the fuckhole.

we'll be moving this thread to nowheresville, china.

peace.

[mrip]

i will wear this if you give it to me for free

-thanks

[jonislike]

thanks for the feedback guys... but i would like to hear from a moderator.. i tried finding any rules on starting threads and i couldn't find any..

mods.. please PM me if you can... thanks

[ericdw]

the broader point is that, while even if you couldn't find a rule prohibiting promoting your line in supershopper, you should at least acknowledge the fact that members of this forum would only be interested in the material to flame it and post it where such threads belong - supertrash.

[jonislike]

and why may i add are people quick to judge with their hypbeast stereotypes? does 12 bar come off that way? when in fact the members of this forum have become hypebeasts themselves in their own right? wow. smh. reanalyze your hypebeast stereotypes. look in the mirror and there isnt much of a difference in this lemming-like follow the leader forum world. honestly.. lanvin's are like sb's here. im just trying to post pieces for people to use their own opinions and not the opinion of the forum as a collective(which some of you seem think have the right to speak for all) this forum is made of indiviuals, make your own critique, if u hate it then all good. if you like it let it be known dont be scared to get flamed. dont put me down or a brand down just because it was on a forum you despise (which is "painfully obvious" you view also) so take those jeans off, let em soak in lukewarm water, let yor balls breath and know its not that serious.

I LOVE YOU GUYS!

[ericdw]

you're taking comments from the other thread you started about twelvebar being a hypebeast brand and using that as a defense for your designs getting bashed because "we're all lemmings." whether 12bar is a "hypebeast" label or not is besides the point.

this jacket:

and this shirt:

could be a lavin X hare X w+h X sufu X selfedge X vans X supreme X dior X samurai collaboration and i still would say it's ugly. but that's just me, individually.

[edit] i love you too

[artificialsky]

you're a lousy pr agent.

nick should fire you. cliquenmove sucks too.

CARD HAS BEEN PULLED.

I just sent you from red to green for this.

[mrip]

i will rejudge my hypebeasts stereotypes if you send me free product

i will tell all my sufriends about how amazing 12 bar is

and why may i add are people quick to judge with their hypbeast stereotypes? does 12 bar come off that way?

we dont hate hypebeast, one of our most cherished members was a hypebeast (DUM), not to mention the respect soundbomber and milspex get on their streetwear. there aren't any stereotypes or prejudices here to speak of, at least not on my part

lanvin's are like sb's here.

except that half of superfuture doesn't actually own lanvin. i could count the number of posters with lanvin sneakers on this forum with one hand. as to how many hypebeasts own sb's though, oh my

im just trying to post pieces for people to use their own opinions and not the opinion of the forum as a collective

we already gave you our opinion. it was negative. it was quite an astonishing failure of a thread

oh, and did you just straight up rip off comme des garcons' play logo?

The word hypebeast needs to fucking die. It's like the plague of defining a word with the word itself. It is void of any significant value, meaning, or social commentary regardless of how godamn catchy it is.

Let's be honest. The demographic this sneaker trend has spawned is a poor imitation of an imitation. It's quite obvious that is the case with what you have shown and how you have shown it here.

look in the mirror and there isnt much of a difference in this lemming-like follow the leader forum world. honestly.. lanvin's are like sb's here.

Wow, what a revelation. The only problem is sbs there cost $65 retail and are skateboarding shoes. Lanvin is a Parisian fashion house label. Please do not match A with X. They are on opposite ends of the spectrum.

The understanding of how capitalism works does not reflect the quality nor relevance of your line to those that interests a majority group amongst superfuture. Yay, we get it, you gotta hustle and everyone's a lemming. Make a buck. Unfortunately that's what the rest of the myspace generation is doing now that they've caught onto the streetwear industry... making every piece legitimate or pseudo-legitimate brands make under even more scrutiny.

im just trying to post pieces for people to use their own opinions and not the opinion of the forum as a collective(which some of you seem think have the right to speak for all) this forum is made of indiviuals, make your own critique, if u hate it then all good.

To be honest, it's just really really really boring. Why buy from you guys when I can just go to Lacoste and get the same striped shirt? Or the western at a vintage store? Other than Twelve Bar branding, it's not offering anything significant in cut, fit, or aesthetic other than imitation and an umbrella motif of 'inspired by'.

i will rejudge my hypebeasts stereotypes if you send me free product

i will tell all my sufriends about how amazing La Mem is

Quoted for truth.

[Nonn8tive]

Not a fan of the label...nothing particularly wrong with the clothing ...except that it just doesnt fit the style of most people on here. Your better off posting on like one of the sneakerish niketalk hypebeasty type forums.

oh, and did you just straight up rip off comme des garcons' play logo?

first thing i thought of when i saw these shots. but since when does h+m stripe shirt + cdg heart = appealing to more sophisticated clientele and become an upscale streetwear brand?
