Tommy, Ralph and Calvin...This GUY is So Much Better Then You!

Remember high school? I know that for some, that was a while ago and requires some extra hard thinking, but please humor me. What did you wear for clothes? Or in my case what did all the cool people wear for clothes?

Well if you're from my era you're picturing Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein. How I am glad that those days are over! Over priced clothing that gave you immediate social status was not the way the world of fashion was meant to be. And remember what wasn't cool? Second-hand clothes...but thanks to places like Frenchy's, The Salvation Army and others, thrift store shopping is very acceptable and even the norm in a lot of cases. (Except for those guys and girls who still wear way too much CK One...and think that they are still in grade 12.)

But I've been noticing a trend...one that once unpopular turned popular things regularly travel; price hikes. Now I still love Frenchy's and I will shop there for much longer, but tonight I was amazed. I bought 4 items...and it cost me $20! Now in the grand scheme of things that's not a whole lot, but for Frenchy's it is. I think that if this trend continues I am going to start a new one...Designing and making my own clothes.

This hoodie is affectionately titleled The "Violet" Hood. The reason for this
is so that I can appeal to the thug demographic. It's actually quiet clever
how I arrived at the name simply by removing the 'n' from the word 'violent'.

Yes that is a lion. A bold statement I know but it must be made none the less. I am
also changing the generic name of this product from a 't-shirt' to a 'b-shirt', after all
I am the one who designed it...and that 't' guy doesn't seem to be around anymore.

Finally we have the masterpiece to my collection. The Shants. Yes I went there.
The Shants are my answer to the zip-off pants that I despise. In theory
the zip-offs were a good idea, if you're hot zip-off, if you're cold zip back on.
However this posed far too much work and finding a place to keep the
zip-off portion of the pants while you are on the road is such a hassle. Not to
mention the unsightly seams for the zippers. Now with one full leg and on short
leg, you can enjoy the warmth and breeziness you so desire both at the same
time. Thus helping you to maintain a perfect core body temperature all the time, with
no zipping!

These are my works so far. Feel free to spread word around and I will be taking orders soon...I hope you like what you see, and if not, pray Frenchy's keeps their prices low!
