FAQ Clothing What F@#$

FAQ Clothing

When I first got the catalog from this company I was not very impressed at all. The designs looked kinda weak. This is a prime example why we do not write reviews from Cads or photos. When I got my grab box in the mail (and we will talk about that in a second) I changed my tune. The photos and catalog prints do not show the real garment quality.

Ok so here we go. This first photo here is of the grab box that you get when you order the Mystery box that comes with 3 tees of their choice . I love this shit!!!!! These guys took the time to give me something for spending my hard erned money. The presentation of this box was fucking rad. From the box to the tissue paper, the stickers on the box and paper that comes inside. Its not like some of the shit i get in the mail that goes right to salvation army( and yes for all of you that have heard the rumor i did drop off a box Ice Cream clothing at the salvation army). This cool shit that FAQ took the time to put into this order made me get off my ass and pass it around to a few of my friends. Now that I have stroked these guys off enough with the box that my shirts came in, now we can get to the Tees them self. Most brands would just pick the shitty AAA tee to print their art work on. Now i am not going to name names on the brands that do this(Crooks and Castle, BBC, Ice cream) I am above that kind of shit talking.  These guys pick a very nice cut and sew  soft cotton tee, it’s worth the price they are asking for it. Price for the mystery box is 40.00 plus 5.00 for shipping for 3 tees not a bad price. Just a tee goes for 18.00 plus 5.00 for shipping still not a bad price. I really like the tees with bright colors being in NY the land of black and grey I Tend to move to the colors faster. The down fall of the brand is that I would like to know more about them. Why have the chosen to be minimalist? What is the reason to their art? I just want to know more about them who they are and what they are about. I like to spend money with people I know support my lifestyle, or a brand that I can relate to. But other then that i’m fucking down with FAQ clothing next time kids send us the paper peel tee . Great Job kitties keep it up now it’s time to add some cut and sew to your brand.  One last thing get the fuck out of the hipster game stores are over ordering that kinda crap.

Get your ass to the site and pick up a tee you bitches.

I will keep this to the point and let historical facts speak for themselves. Anyone who has a smidgen of intelligence has heard of Hitler, the Third Reich and the infamous SS. Their logo is one of the most poignant  images ever created by man, and connotes unspeakable horrors and the genocide of millions.

Taken from wikipedia:

The About this sound Schutzstaffel (help·info) (German for “Protection Squadron”), abbreviated SS—or Runic "SS" (Runic)—was a major Nazi organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. The SS grew from a small paramilitary unit to a powerful force that served as the Führer’s “Praetorian Guard,” the Nazi Party’s “Shield Squadron” and a force that, fielding almost a million men (both on the front lines and as political police), managed to exert as much political influence in the Third Reich as the Wehrmacht, Germany’s regular armed forces. Built upon the Nazi ideology, the SS, under Heinrich Himmler’s command, was responsible for many of the crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Nazis during World War II, and most of the particularly egregious ones.

Here is a clear image of their “logo”:

Here are t-shirt “designs” by the clothing company Street Stealth LA:

As if the intended usage of one of the worst images you could think of is not enough, there is an added elements of drips, which just happen to be red and highly reminiscent of blood (on the white tee). Are they joking ? What kind of perverse and sick person would ever dare to put that on a shirt ? They claim they are almost sold out, so it is even worse that people are buying this. It is beyond disgusting and so hugely offensive, that i call upon all you people with a common sense to not only boycott this company but to send them a stern email on their more than serious “misstep”, granted it is one, and this is not some undercover white power movement. Take a stand and make it clear that we, the people, refuse to accept this sort of fascist propaganda on garments, whether or not it was intentional. This is not a joke!!! MILLIONS of people died at the hands of the SS! It is not any sort of statement besides a symbol of hate and thus completely inexcusable. We are all one people and we have to fight hard to keep tolerance and respect for all creeds, sexualities, religions etc. in our society in order to create a positive world. Do not let people and “companies” step on this vision and misuse images of horrors that actually took place a mere 65 years ago  for a FUCKING T-SHIRT!
