u gotttaaa be kiddin on the last one.

i think as a "up and coming designer"...never replicate a already infamous design, and put your own twist on it. your tryna create your OWN style, not imitate.

the designs are alright. and i get how DC has a high homicide rate and all that, but change that last shirt ASAP

with all due respect fam... you're a little offbase... you can't speak as someone who follows streetwear and streetculture and speak of "creating your own style" and "not imitating". Streetwear is our fashion, our vision, our opportunity for us to make statements in fashion, yes, but it is a business. You want to talk about the big hitters (Crooks, Stussy, TheHundreds, Supreme) and talk about creativity without business? These respective brands created a following based off of their understanding of streetwear as a business, AND as an artistic impression. You think ANYTHING has been done that isn't in some way, shape, or form an interpretation of a design. We've been wearing fashion for hundreds of years, with thousands upon thousands of brands having come and gone. What's left? Our brains that are littered with the thousands of pictures of hype we've seen on great blogs such as this one and others that have created our interpretation on what's dope. Do you know how many shirts are like the Urban Arts Dre & Eazy & Cube & Ren shirts there are? I won't change that shirt, its my props to a great brand (props Ray and the whole MH fam). And I certainly won't deprive the great city of DC of a shirt that represents what we've been through, which is what this whole game is about.

yeah you say that but let's face it fam.. there's imitation all over this game.. you know how many of the Uarm Black Label Dre & Eazy & Cube & Ren shirts there are... or how the mighty Crooks have their own dope interpretation of the Chanel logo.. streetwear's love... props to ray and the whole MH crew for the original.. but that shouldn't be a reason for me to deprive the great city of DC of a shirt that represents us, is it? Streetwear is art, streetwear is business, streetwear is our interpretation of the fashion world and I love this shit.

"The streetwear game is all about imitation." Awesome, this is where we've come to with regards to making our own clothing lines.

I know there is imitation in streetwear. I don't think that knowingly imitating another already made shirt is something to be proud of.

on the fitted, in my opinion the logo would look better on the center and solid color instead of two-tone. nice touch on metro map because i always get lost on the train even though there are only like 5 lines.

I know there's Shmack in VA beach but does anyone know any good brands based out of the DC area? Trying to see if there's a community like LA and NY.

Truthfully, the "Cali dreams/NY Nightmare" jumpoff if stubby. Id cop but im sure you dont have my size. Ill PM you with my request.

I don't like the name, but maybe that's just me.

The Cali dreams tee is ugly. Learn some typography before making a text-based design. The fitted is useless...you're not going to make it. And put photoshop down. Maybe pick up a pencil?

Good luck.
