No
why not?
Looks awful
all of their pieces or only some of them
Every last one
What do you like about it
some of their pieces are nice
Okay
like this is nice
and this
Both uggo
What does the logo mean to you
i js like the look
or do you mean what does it like mean to you in what does it stand for
Why do you like it
cuz it looks good imo
Okay well if that’s as far as you’re willing to go in your own aesthetic judgments then there is no point in asking others for theirs.
no like what is ugly about it?
does it look tacky or what
Why don’t you tell me what you think looks good about it first?
which pice
piece
Either
the hoodie i like the wash and the back looks good
and for the shirt i like the design
Okay. I think the wash on the hoodie is trendy but uninteresting and was done much better by Bare Knuckles (https://bareknuckles.co/collections/basics/products/basics-hoodie?variant=45108937097379). The brand's name and entire ethos seem designed to appeal to edgy 14 year olds (the listing for the hoodie literally says "Embrace the Darkness, Unleash Your Inner Power"). Meanwhile the design of the t-shirt and its "message" are so uninspired I wouldn't be surprised if the entire thing was AI generated.
BARE KNUCKLES
Basics Hoodie
DETAILS Oversized, heavyweight faded hoodie. 450 gsm, 14 oz brushed cotton fleece. Garment dyed and potassium sprayed for a worn look. Overlapping hood detail. Wide front kangaroo pocket. Wider chest with a dropped shoulder. Elastic ribbing at wrist and hem. INFO Made in Los Angeles. Body - 100% Cotton. Machine wash co
thats the motto?
thats lowkey cringe af 😭
i thought it was this
Also tbh the whole loud retro? Ish streetwear thing is just done better by a lot of other people
💀
Not the ai overview
lmao
This would be fine on a baby shirt but like there’s better graphics imo
whos got some good grpahics
How is this not cringe
ig it kinda is
There is quite literally nothing shocking or rebellious or boundary-pushing about any of this. It's another facile, forgettable trend-hopping cash-grab.
i wish it had nothing on the front and the face thing on the back
what about this i think this is nice
Idk go on Depop and look up y2k baby shirts
Don't buy festival merch for a festival you didn't go to lol
but i did lmao
why would you pay money to look like a poser
it's from broken planet, another IG screenprint brand
you went to the festival? why didn't you buy it there?
bro at this point it seems like i should js wear black hoodies bro
mom didnt let me
lol
honestly man just get one that looks neat and dont think too hard about it
you should buy whatever you think looks good
i really like the broken planet
feeling iffy abt the hellstar tho
Woag these r sick
buy whatever you want. it's a fun writing exercise to explain why a brand does or doesn't appeal to me but I don't see why you should base your own taste off what I or anybody else on here thinks.
thats fair
i feel like at my age its fine to wear it but not for like a 25 yr old
do you live in portugal
nope
usa
your mom really flew with you to portugal so you could go to rolling loud?
me and my friend yeah
we went to germany and spain too
not js for rolling loud
that is crazy man. you are very lucky.
mhm
only time ive been out of the country
I can't really provide advice to a kid
just wear whatever you think is cool
i mean people my age think hellstar is awesome so
Okay well i'd say don't ask a bunch of adults and working professionals for advice on how to look cool to teenagers lmao
At best it's bape 2.0
bruh bapes ugly asf
It sounds like you already know what you like.
Go back 10-15 years and people were eating that shit up
idk i js like it and it looks cool imo
stick with that
and ask ur mom
wym
to buy it for u or whatever
no i work for my moms business and pay for it that way
Resident young person here
wsg
sure. buy it with money your mom gave to you. that's fine too.
Hellstar are whatever but there are other brands doing their stuff better if you like that imo
what are some of those
i need some fahsion advice
Pull some hellstar looks/pieces you like and I’ll give you some
alr gotchu
these are the 4 ive been looking at
you js wanna see all the clothes im thinking of getting
If you like these sorts of aesthetics you should check out happy99, stray rats, dime, cav empt, braindead
Just to name a few
its defo the aesthetic i like
Feel like you have a gravitation towards loud graphics but i think hellstar is trying too hard IMO
idk abt the shirts bc the logos are just so big
seconding stray rats
big fan
i also am a fan of stray rats
i feel like this is more manageable
braindead also makes a lot of sense and maybe basketcase lowkey
look man if you like the brand then go for it
dont listen to us just because we don't wear it
wait braindad is cool
braindead sorry
clothes are an expression of self and design aesthetics
if thats what you like then wear that shit
put it on
wait thats facts fr
🗣️
Yeah they make a ton of crazy shit, collab with alot of artists
Brain dead is cool
Diesel maybe
^^
Basketcase for sure
Marc Jacob’s heaven
i also really like hellstar fitment and material
iirc the hellstar materials are kinda ass
i like that a lot
oo i like this
Pill logo goes hard ngl
heres the back
i'd wear that
its really nice
idk abt this
bunz
lmao i dislike the pink
just way too busy. i like the faces being the devil and jesus but everything else is just over designed
it seems like you like hellstar so you should buy it
follow your heart
hmm
oh they have almost blank I NEED IT
Terrible
If you want something loud and fun I'd check out online ceramics
That’s a completely different vibe
And also terrible
:xd:
do I quallify as young enough for the vibecheck if I'm 22
live out your dreams kid dont let these boring old people cramp your style
With the black hellstar - if you have old black hoodies, why not try making your own bleach design instead of buying?
The two t-shirts have a lot of visual interest, but I've personally not been a fan of big logos and the main decoration like the hoodies unless it is free (why should I pay to advertise for you?) I know a lot of people do like that, however, and streetwear is a style with a lot of decorative logos intentionally.
i wear a lot of streetwear and bigish logos that just my vibe so
