Its hella feminine to get tattoos on your feet, chicks do it because they wear sandals.

I attempted to put the avenged sevenfold death bat on my forearm last year, bad idea. It looked really [b]s[/b]hitty so I had to wait for it to fade, but you still can see traces of it.

well since we were talking about corporate evilness a few pages back, i thought that this might be fitting [url]http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/10-shoplifting.html[/url] (if someone's already posted this, my bad)

this isn't exactly a diy question, but i figured i shouldn't post a whole new thread. i'm thinking of getting new shoes (well, i pretty much have to, my only pair is just about completely worn through the bottom). i'm not getting converse, because they're made in sweatshops now. i'm at the point where i can affort something besides random $15 shoes by a brand that exploits workers, i'm certainly not paying $40 for chucks from a company that does the same.

does anybody know if there are any shoes like it (for reasonably low prices, under $50 for sure)? what about those duane peters shoes (from vision streetwear, aka draven shoes, google either of those if you're looking for them, although vision doesn't really have a functional website)?

classic vans?

[QUOTE=blackflagbassist]classic vans?[/QUOTE]I'm pretty sure those are also owned by nike and made in sweatshops now.

I bought some Duane Peters shoes from interpunk a while back. They were $40 plus shipping. That's not too bad.

It's extrmely hard to find not-sweatshop-made made shoes. You can get some boots,a lot of those are U.S. made.

Get some of [url=http://adbusters.org/metas/corpo/blackspotsneaker/orderv1.html]these shoes[/url], they look like chucks but are "anti-corporate" shoes.

[QUOTE=Twat_Out_Of_Hell]yeah, and under the armpits so i've heard[/QUOTE]


what in gods name would posess someone to put a tattoo under their arm?!

also, my cousin is a tattoo artuist and she has been in lots of magizines :)

Boots can run high, mine were $30 I think, they are Roebucks, which is Sears, but were made in China.

sweet crap, i didn't know adbusters made shoes. i love that magazine. there a bit pricey though. i'll keep looking, but i appreciate all the help guys.

[QUOTE=cheeser_1]sweet crap, i didn't know adbusters made shoes. i love that magazine. there a bit pricey though. i'll keep looking, but i appreciate all the help guys.[/QUOTE]Yeah, when I found out they had shoes, I was gonna order some until I saw the price. I thought they would have alot cheaper.

oh man, see, now that's perfect. those are the same price as chucks or anything else. in related news, a big chunk of my shoe fell off. which is awesome.

I'd go with duane peters. I have the black and red stripes now and they're great. i got mine for 35 plus shipping which isn't too bad. I'm starting to wear through them now though, and I'm considering getting a different duane peters shoe.

Duct tape them.

I got these a little while ago http://shoeswithsouls.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=ECOSNEAKS%20(MEN)%20BK

They seem to be holding up ok. I like them.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]Duct tape them.[/QUOTE]
oh, they've been through like an entire roll of the stuff. i've had these shoes for about... three and a half years i think it is.

Loads of people have tattoos under their arms, it's just as valid a place to have one as any

Who makes a flag, and why?

So you can wear it on your ***.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]Who makes a flag, and why?[/QUOTE]

I asked the same question to myself, especially one for a band. One of your country maybe, but not a band.

No one will even know what it means/stands for unless someone tells them (the DKM flag)

[QUOTE=Brain Squirmin' Like a Toad]I asked the same question to myself, especially one for a band. One of your country maybe, but not a band.[/QUOTE]

It would fun to make one of your OWN band.

[QUOTE=Ihatehate]It would fun to make one of your OWN band.[/QUOTE]

My band were meant to be playing a gig but it was cancelled so we are going to play in my friends basement instead and he is going to make a flag/banner of the band. Plus we will only be playing in front of my friend

alright, im about to embark on making t shirts, so can anyone pass along some political slogans (an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind) or perhaps some symbols from bands (the strike anywhere three pointing arrows, crass logo), or maybe even some quotable quotes from, say.... lyrics (from all the way in the back of the food stamp line its THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE LEFTOVER CRACK!).

cheers

I tried out my AC/DC stencil today, and it turned out horrible and made me waste a piece of canvas :upset: The stencil was too small and really crap. So then I decided I wasn't done and freehand painted a hammer-sickle onto a piece of scrap white fabric, and it turned out really good. I may attach it to some sturdier fabric and used it as a small patch. I'll take some pics when it dries.
