Bold – Join The Fight HYE Bootleg

A few years back, maybe 2002 or 2003, my friend happened to come across an older dude with a giant pile of crucial merch. Amongst a huge bag of demos, zines and tshirts, there lay 2 tshirt screens. Those screens were for the Bold Join The Fight tee.

We screened these shirts up for Posi #s 2004. Too differentiate these from any original tees, we screened “How’s Your Edge?” on the sleeve. You know how ttd/hye feels about bootleg tees. We gave a bunch out, sold the rest. Kids seemed genuinely psyched to get them. I was glad for that.

Years later, Bold would reprint these shirts. Good looks.

The seller of this particular tee did something a little out of the ordinary with his.

These shirts were remade around Posi #s 2004 (the one in the maze) and I scooped one up there. It had a sleeve print noting this, but I removed it professionally. Great looking remake that is exactly like the original, but not an original. Very cool, and from what I know totally on the up and up as far as reprinting it with approval. Great shirt but I can’t stand to see it go unworn. Some young edgemen should score this and make it a weekly wear. JOIN. THE. FIGHT. (i still like Bold, 4ever.)

Now that’s hardcore.

Have Heart – Last Show Merch

Well, that didn’t take long.

If my math is right, this shirt was upped at 10am this morning. That’s exactly 12 hours after the show ended. And that’s pretty lame.

I call weak. Granted, waiting in that crazy ass Have Heart merch line was ridiculous, but I bet these shirts are less limited than you would think. They had box after box of these things. Good look.

War Hungry – Oozing AF1 Monster Tee

The thing I love about War Hungry and their tshirt designs is the creativity and imagination that goes into them. These dudes are OUT there, seriously. Every shirt gets zanier and zanier. And when I say that, it is NOT a bad thing.

I like a quality zany shirt. That is, as long as the shirt isn’t 400 colors, with wacky placement. This shirt is the opposite. One color, on a dark grey tee. Good look. Great look really.

“hardcore metal band” seems like a stretch though. Jay Bil loves an AF1. No doubt.
