Original Fake and Bapesta X Spongebob Squarepants. Come on, man.
As many of you may have already peeped on some other streetwear blogs, Original Fake is doing a series of gear based on Spongebob Squarepants. What the hell is up with that?! I mean, seriously! I don’t really like to write blogs that just diss, but this is too much.
Do you know anyone who would wear this: (pic from Highsnobiety)
?
I mean, yeah… it’s got kind of a cool Kaws spin on it, but it’s still Spongebob. You know, the same Spongebob that’s on all the boys’ underwear and pajamas from KMart?
Obviously, the homie Bob is down with some big timers in the fashion world because he also got a signature sneaker form Bape. Check the Bapesta Spongebobs: (pic from Highsnobiety)
Who are they fooling with this stuff? I’m the first to admit that my opinions on fashion can be swayed when new trends emerge or companies I like do something that I thought I didn’t like. I mean I never thought I’d be wearing tight jeans. But these designs are obnoxious. they totally lack any aesthetic value. They remind me of the Alife Sesame Street tees I wrote about a while back that, by the way, I haven’t seen even one person wearing.
On the real those shirts scare me little. Imagine having lunch or a conversation with someone wearing one of these, their manboobs staring you down.
Till next time.
Holla!
