I remember the good ol days when we would shit on dill for his $90 FA sweatshirts, now everyone loves him for it.

[whatsreallygood]

Not a fan of FA/Hockey, definitely not gonna buy these, but no one's forcing you to buy it as far as I know?

[burn_to_live]

You like attention don't you?

[HyenaChaser]

Yea I'm not really sure what the issue is here, their boards are still $55-60

[shpongle]

the people who are mad at me are the same people who probably buy his overpriced shit. and will defend it too

[Mesteezo]

I can't hate on Dill anymore. A couple  weeks back I went to LA and decided to check out the FA store for shits and giggles. Dill was in there chatting up with some kid and I overheard him say to the kid and I'm paraphrasing here
 "yo that's so cool you know our brand and what we're about, we gonna hook you up with a free shirt choose whatever you want"

[Heather Chandler]

I could only see myself supporting the Christian version...Flippin' Cool.

[yourbreakfsat]

Don't buy the clothes then

What a hard decision

[shpongle]

I could only support the British version Bloody Smashin!

[alonelikeastone]

Come to Canada & see our prices. 

[ChuckRamone]

when you splurge on expensive clothes though you can usually feel the difference in quality. does fa's expensive clothing fit that bill? if it does it might be worth it.

This. I just sold a Nike Dri-Fit polo I paid $4 for at the Goodwill, sold on eBay for $20.

Nice try, Dill

So some kid living at home with mommy and daddy gets a free t-shirt, meanwhile the homeless guy that started this thread at a public library somehow has to scrape together $80 for some shorts?

It's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

Duh, kid with mommy and daddy is more likely to buy something later than a homeless dude.

[Lloyd Braun]

Not my favorite brand, but props to them for being able to. At least their riders get paid. Also don’t buy them. Plenty of people who will.

Just because homeless people exist doesn't mean the economy has to revolve around them or whatever bullshit Marxist fantasy world you're living in. If he can't afford a "luxury" brand then he can't afford a luxury brand. Go to Walmart, go to Goodwill, go to Burlington. That's a disgustingly entitled attitude, that everybody "deserves" everything and that nothing can be reserved for the people who have earned the ability to obtain it. You do realize that companies like FA and actually our entire industry in itself would fail to exist if there wasn't a profit in it for the people running the companies right? If you don't like it move to one of your precious socialist paradises and vibe out on the booming skate scenes there

Okay, I'm interpreting this as you agreeing with my quote and addressing your remarks to the OP.  Threw me for a sec.

[rukes]

Fucking Average would be a way better company name just imo. More narcissistic and ironic.

Go to the thrift store to buy shorts if you're that broke of course they're not flowing gear to some bum who probably doesn't even have an IG as opposed to some kid who can actually launder his clothes and wear them multiple times and stoke out his skater friends at school on the brand. Use your head dawg these companies have to stay in business.

Honestly though if OP went to the FA store and met the guy and had a good convo he might get some free swag too but not if he just bitched and moaned about how lame the guy and his brands are.
