1. No Box Logo. Only Supreme can do that.

2. No more pocket tees with some graphics on the pocket

3. No more 5 Panels or whatever

4. No more snakeskin snapbacks or whatever

5. No more "666" Satan, Illimunati or whatever free mason stuff

6. No more "DEATH" and big ass depressing words

7. Please, stop making your graphics so big. There is no need for the graphic to cover 90% of the shirt

8. No more use of the word swag, dope or anything related.

9. Corny quotes such as "Life is....." or "To succeed one must....."

10. big ass picture of a sexy girl or whatever. I love my women, but you're gonna be a laughing stock if you have a big ass pic of a girl in a bikini or somethin

You're welcome.

I agree with all except number 3, I dont see the difference in doing 5 panels or snap backs really. Both have been around for a long time! Good list

All good except 7.
Small prints make your "Brand" look completely amateur-like.
Well, not if you can handle it like Ronin but in other cases.

stop knocking off or making fun of supreme and thinking your brand is original
100+ brands did the same thing

There is only 1 commandment which is all of yours rolled into 1 ( except #3 cuz a 5 panel is just a type of hat
although i wish mufuckas would start usin 4 panels look at the hypbeasts "wha-? four pane- huh? what is a 4 panel? how come im not riding that wave? did rocky wear it yet?" )

meanwhile that commandment is Be Original, you just named 9 trends started by specific brands that you don't like personally that can all be thrown into that 1 commandment. Of course the commandment is vague but thas the point. How can one be original if they are reading a list of things tellin u how to start a brand, jujeard

don't ride my wave

rules 2 and 3 are kinda stupid. No more five panels? really? that's a really broad thing to get rid of. And it's not like having a pattern on a specific part of a shirt is some brand's 'signature' like a box logo. It may be played out, but that doesn't mean there isn't new ways to make them that would be cool.

Gotta agree with everything except for 6 and 9. Those two are pretty much staples of streetwear and have been since this shit started.

Nope. Basically stop trying to copy off of other brands and expect people to pay top dollar for it...

Came to see if I broke any of the rules, doesn't seem like I have yet. Woop. I do like quotes, but it'd have to be really timeless for me to ever associate it with a brand.
