Doesn't work, IMO. It looks like crap even though its expensive, and too many other people are doing the exact same thing.
It does work in a sense though. If you want to pickup dumber than brick ditzes at cheesey nightclubs, Ed Hardy is the uniform of choice. People are entirely predictable.

If you want to associate yourself with anyone who has any personality or level of depth whatsoever, the Ed Hardy probably won't work.

Let me tell you, wearing your shirt inside out is a poor way to pick up women.
If you're striking out in Kimberley there's something more going on than the inside-out shirt. But, keep telling yourself that.

As a guy, I just don't get the appeal of wearing sparkly shirts with crazy dragon designs all over them. Those shirts are just way too busy for me. Even when they were popular a year or two ago I thought they were gay, I used to refer to them as looking like a spraypainted building.

But ya I think the guys who wear em don't help. To this day I've never seen a normal-looking guy wearing one of those shirts. It's always some muscley, faux-hawked guy with a fake tan and trimmed eyebrows. So as far as your question goes, for me its a little column A and a little column B. All in all just an awful style of clothing.

Too many people wear this Ed Hardy line. WAAAAAY too many people.

You can never go wrong with a nice blazer, a collared shirt and and dress pants or jeans. Girls love blazers. I find if you're out on the prowl... this is the way to go. Plus, women love men is suits,even if it's just a blazer. Works every time.

I just checked out the site.. $100 for a tshirt or hat?!? The drawing of a panther reminded me of Napoleon Dynamites liger drawing.

I don't discriminate on clothing lines, I hate all the other ###### wear as well (Affliction, Tap out, anything with crosses on it, etc.). All the same noise.

DING DING DING. We have a winner. The is the best line in the thread and should result in the immediate closure of this thread. Just talking about this makes you ######'er.

For the first year they were out, I seriously thought they were WWE t-shirts. Learning that they weren't, never really changed my opinion on them.

I think that looks cool on the side of a building, but not on a shirt.

The douchiest part about wearing Ed Hardy clothing is the fact that you paid $100 for a bloody t-shirt. That's far worse than the god-awful, flashy clothing itself.

Haha there's so many people that manage to screw this look up and look worse then those ######bags wearing ed hardy. At least there clothes fit. I can't count how many times you'll someone with a blazer that doesn't fit paired with a shirt that's clearly to big for them, combined with baggy bootcut jeans and top it all off with some horrible slip on dress shoes.

This was always my impression. The fact that the people you most often see wearing them are completely roided out, have ridiculous faux hawks (with frosted tips optional), garish jewelry and tattoos etc. The shiny t-shirt which being a recognized expensive brand name supposedly lauds more importance and distinction on the wearer by drawing more attention to them while simultaneously showing how much money they have.

On the other end of the spectrum there are the guys who look like skids that want to mimic the bulked up types since they get vacuous attractive women who are pulled in by the aforementioned peacocking. The problem for these guys is that they look ridiculous not having the accompanying features so they end up having spent all their money on ugly t-shirts, looking like idiots, and not getting laid.

And the rest of us just watch from the sidelines laughing all the way.

So I'm cruising through the Bay in Lethbridge today, checking out what they have left for Olympic gear and what do I see? A huge Ed Hardy banner advertising their new line on cologne and perfume. Yes now you can also smell like a ######. I just thought of this thread and laughed.

So thank you CP for making me look like a psycho, laughing to myself walking through the Bay.
