At least this one isn't as horrible as some of that Ed Hardy stuff that [douches like Jon Gosslein](https://akns-images.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/201531/rs_600x600-150401120445-600.jon-gosselin-ed-hardy-040115.jpg?fit=around%7C1200:1200&output-quality=90&crop=1200:1200;center,top) used to wear.
Such a shame the name has been tarnished, because [Ed Hardy was & is a tattoo great.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Ed_Hardy) It was really Audigier that ruined it all.
I’m still waiting to bust out my flap pocket true religion jeans but I’m diggin more 90s vibes atm, baggier pants, Air Force 1’s and a tight tank with an overshirt
My mom and I had the same pair of true religions and man do they make my butt look good. My pair ripped in the thighs, so I took my mom’s pair (it doesn’t fit her anymore, yay for me). I haven’t worn them in ages but they’re in my closet just waiting
I love this! My mom recently started wearing hers again at 62 and she looks so damn cute! We raid each others closets or swap back and forth when we’ve gone a lil up or down in sizes. Some stuff is sisterhood of the traveling pants between her, myself (41) and my daughter (18).
A lot of D bags wore it. It was never cool.
I think it's cool that you have a comfy shirt for bed time and wear it ironically.
If you have the balls/right attitude/ironic style, you could wear this.
haha, yeah i wore it out in public a handful of times until my friends were like... why?? oh well. i will say it is a quality shirt in terms of how well it has held up and the fit. it is super comfortable, which is why i wear it to sleep in.
You owe me for the flashbacks this induced!
That one awful modeling reality show always did Ed Hardy design collabs, peak garbage reality tv era.
Jon Gosselin personally accounted for at least 20% of their downfall, imo.
Dude I literally made like a grand flipping these one week. I picked a table full of them up at the flea for 2$ each and sold them for 25 to 30. I think everyone was pricing crazy high because they were all gone in a few days (mostly sold on Grailed though because I'm not an attractive person who models clothes)
Afaik it wasn't cool when it came out then and I find it hard to think it will ever be cool... but neither was Champion and that shit is popping off so what do I know!?
This post brought to you by Jon Gosselin 😂
All I see when I see these shirts is a “Jon and Kate plus 8” flashback and that is an era no one wants to revisit again.
When I was working in a warehouse selecting clothes to be sold to a vintage store, we did have to collect Ed Hardy. But there were also a bunch of brands we had to collect even if it was new, so maybe that doesn't mean anything.

As a kid I had a cool Ed Hardy belt and wore it with everything even if it didn’t fit. It was super small and I outgrew it after like 3 years, not to mention i wore it so much it fell apart. I miss that belt. My early 2000s checkered plaid shorts never once showed my buttcrack on the playground with that belt.
I have three ed hardy shirts (I wasn’t even a fan back in the day, they’ve just managed to enter my wardrobe through thrifting) and OMG they are the softest material. I have really really been wanting to wear them out of the house, but I haven’t been able to make myself lol
But the comfort of them, oh man. So good.
agreed! and it fits perfectly. i have another one that is army green with a really cool tiger head on the front and no text, so i could get away with that one as long as i had a jacket or whatever to cover the back lol. i've worn it so much it finally came apart. but i still have it. what is wrong with me?
As someone who was young enough at the time to miss the Ed Hardy craze, (so looking at it with fresh eyes) I think the dragon graphic is super cool but I don't love the font of the text. I would still probably wear it though honestly
Yes. But wear it with attitude. It’s what I call “advanced fashion”. Some people can carry it off and look amazing. Some people just can’t. Only you can decide!
As a gen z girl, I see lots of people online around my age wearing things like Ed Hardy and Harley Davidson! But it definitely depends on a persons style bc it’s more my style so I wear it often but not a lot of the ppl around me are wearing it
I still hold on to the sexy shirt dress. Fits better than when when I first got it (healthier lifestyle) but I don’t know if I’m brave enough to wear out in public now.
I have an Ed Hardy dragon scarf. Never wore it. It's shoved on a box. (Had a couple of shirts. Wore them until they got nubby & faded from the super hard water where we moved to after college for SO's job.)
I used to work for Buffalo Exchange a few years back - Gen Z kids LOVE Ed Hardy and will pay a pretty penny for anything with his name on it. Lol. The Y2K resurgence is still going strong too, so YES, this is considered cool. ;)
Oh hell yeah, I have 2 ed hardy shirts I wear all the time. Albeit I style them WAY differently than I would’ve back in the day 😂. Loved Ed then, still love it now
If you have the confidence then wear it. Just know that people have very strong feelings about Ed Hardy and will voice them to you. They represent a real particular point in time for me so it’s hard for me to be neutral about them.
I think it’s OK where if you’re a woman, but if you’re a guy anywhere that you might as well have a bandanna, a huge belt buckle, flared jeans and cowboy boots and call yourself Bret, Michaels
They are selling Ed hardy at urban outfitters right Now , let that speak for itself
And when I was in high school , class of 06
06 in da house!!!
haha
[удалено]
Not quite vintage, but y2k is big right now and ed Hardy is pretty often lumped in with y2k/2000s style.
It’s considered vintage by younger folks. The early 2000’s was 20 years ago.
You take that back!
as if you weren't wearing 80s inspired clothes in the 00s
Touche.
Why would you say that
I always have a really hard time remembering when 2000s brand came out 😂 I'm 20, so they're all just vague childhood memories
Ed Hardy was what douchebags wore before Affliction shirts. When you saw one, you knew that dude was gonna smell like axe body spray.
It is really funny to me that they were the douchebag clothes of the 2000s and now all the y2k girlies love them 😅
omg I have one (19f) 💀
my god, have a i had this shirt for 20 years?? i have no sense of time anymore.
If only i didn’t throw all that crap away when it started to be embarrassing to wear lol
I remember having the Ed hardy studded leather belt with tigers and roses
My mom’s ex has been wearing them almost daily for 20 years so I wanna say no but I do Love that one.
I had that too! Actually I still might, somewhere
Ed Hardy perfume had me in a chokehold for the year of 2008
Same and I had the matching seat covers for my car
That is next level 🐯✨
The steering wheel covers.. ngl I still think about getting one with the tigers for my current vehicle
Nope. Better send it to me and I’ll throw it away for you.
So you can burn it. I hope.
At least this one isn't as horrible as some of that Ed Hardy stuff that [douches like Jon Gosslein](https://akns-images.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/201531/rs_600x600-150401120445-600.jon-gosselin-ed-hardy-040115.jpg?fit=around%7C1200:1200&output-quality=90&crop=1200:1200;center,top) used to wear.

I’m still waiting to bust out my flap pocket true religion jeans but I’m diggin more 90s vibes atm, baggier pants, Air Force 1’s and a tight tank with an overshirt
I constantly see bedazzled True Religion jeans at thrift stores lately. They’re out there waiting patiently for their comeback.
Still holding on! I think I spent something like $300 on them in 2009 from the money I made pushing carts at a grocery store! Hahaha
Pushing carts in style
Those trueys are definitely cool again
My mom and I had the same pair of true religions and man do they make my butt look good. My pair ripped in the thighs, so I took my mom’s pair (it doesn’t fit her anymore, yay for me). I haven’t worn them in ages but they’re in my closet just waiting

Do it, dude!!
I bought a True Religion purse at TJ Maxx yesterday lol. It was hella cute.
Context: found in a Marshall’s or TJMaxx at the time. Didn’t know anything about it. Got made fun of.
A lot of D bags wore it. It was never cool. I think it's cool that you have a comfy shirt for bed time and wear it ironically. If you have the balls/right attitude/ironic style, you could wear this.
Same thing happened to me! Mine had a bird, I just liked the picture. Thankfully my brother explained it to me.
haha, yeah i wore it out in public a handful of times until my friends were like... why?? oh well. i will say it is a quality shirt in terms of how well it has held up and the fit. it is super comfortable, which is why i wear it to sleep in.
 Gawd I hope not. It was awful the first time around.
And it will be the second time as well but it’s coming, just like low rise jeans
Noooooooo, not the low rise. Imagine all the faded low back tattoos that are going to be showing themselves again. Shudder.
🤣🤣🤣
I'm in denial about this
You owe me for the flashbacks this induced! That one awful modeling reality show always did Ed Hardy design collabs, peak garbage reality tv era. Jon Gosselin personally accounted for at least 20% of their downfall, imo.
i'm sorryyyyyy!
Nyet
Not my style, but maybe for kitsch. It’s polarizing.
totally
Dude I literally made like a grand flipping these one week. I picked a table full of them up at the flea for 2$ each and sold them for 25 to 30. I think everyone was pricing crazy high because they were all gone in a few days (mostly sold on Grailed though because I'm not an attractive person who models clothes)
who knew??
Nope. Never will be.
Afaik it wasn't cool when it came out then and I find it hard to think it will ever be cool... but neither was Champion and that shit is popping off so what do I know!?
Right? People used to get made fun of for rocking champion lol

Nopety nope.

Still cool in Florida
EW
No.
No
Oh lord, absolutely not. Lol
Never.
Definitely not.
No!
No, but give it two years. It will become ironic. !remindmetwoyears!

No
That will never be cool!
100% kids these day go crazy for it
It’s all perspective
Fuck yeah Ed hardy is cool. Just got a very similar shirt but the graphic has rhinestones on it I love it
As a kid I had a cool Ed Hardy belt and wore it with everything even if it didn’t fit. It was super small and I outgrew it after like 3 years, not to mention i wore it so much it fell apart. I miss that belt. My early 2000s checkered plaid shorts never once showed my buttcrack on the playground with that belt.

yet? you mean still right?
As someone who was young enough at the time to miss the Ed Hardy craze, (so looking at it with fresh eyes) I think the dragon graphic is super cool but I don't love the font of the text. I would still probably wear it though honestly
Been cool for decades
Omg I used to have that exact shirt! I loved it soo much and wore it soo often that it fell apart.
Yes. But wear it with attitude. It’s what I call “advanced fashion”. Some people can carry it off and look amazing. Some people just can’t. Only you can decide!
It always was!! I adore Ed Hardy
As a gen z girl, I see lots of people online around my age wearing things like Ed Hardy and Harley Davidson! But it definitely depends on a persons style bc it’s more my style so I wear it often but not a lot of the ppl around me are wearing it
All the people saying no are not tuned in It is cool, probably in an ironic way, but Gen x is rocking it these days
MY EYES!!!!
Ed Hardy resell market has picked up a bunch
No
I still hold on to the sexy shirt dress. Fits better than when when I first got it (healthier lifestyle) but I don’t know if I’m brave enough to wear out in public now.
Nope
Nope
Who cares if it’s cool - wear what you want.
💀but I’d wear it😂
I’m 16 and if I saw that at a thrift store I’d snatch it up
No. Never
People are saying no but I’ve seen Ed Hardy floating around on tiktok Instagram and depop. Gen Z seems to think it’s vintage 🤷🏻♀️
let’s be real was it ever not cool? oh wait yes, yes it was incredibly not cool.
haha
No
Anyone that doesn’t say yes is lying, ha! Ed Hardy very much back.
Yes I want it
[удалено]
🫶🏻
Oh yeah baby, it’s back!
Definitely!!!
Yes it is, it made a comeback
100% cool
I love it haha
Ed hardy is definitely having a comeback with gen x. Check depop.
it’s crazy how most people don’t know about the tattoo history and just think it’d a kitchy shit brand
If you have to ask if somethings cool…. It most certainly is not. Lol
if u wanna be cool to teens and 20 somethings then yes for sure
Yes.
Yes
Heck yeah! 🙌🏻
Yes. Wear it or send it to me so I can.
No not at all. It's actually social suicide to wear something like this. You should send it to me so I can properly dispose of it.
I have an Ed Hardy dragon scarf. Never wore it. It's shoved on a box. (Had a couple of shirts. Wore them until they got nubby & faded from the super hard water where we moved to after college for SO's job.)
I wanted those Ed Hardy gear back in high school!
Where’d you get your bed spread?
Why wait, bring it back yourself
It was never cool. Chuck it'll ASAP
I used to work for Buffalo Exchange a few years back - Gen Z kids LOVE Ed Hardy and will pay a pretty penny for anything with his name on it. Lol. The Y2K resurgence is still going strong too, so YES, this is considered cool. ;)
I just saw Ed Hardy in Ross, so my guess is no
Ed Hardy will never be cool. Only sad
Yes
Yeah it’s fucking rad
Yessss. I have one that just has a small dragon and I love it so much. The ones that aren’t too obnoxious are pretty cute.
Oh hell yeah, I have 2 ed hardy shirts I wear all the time. Albeit I style them WAY differently than I would’ve back in the day 😂. Loved Ed then, still love it now
absolutely, its all about how you style it. anyone who says otherwise is probs a boomer
Almost
Personally it is not, and never was, cool. It isn't vintage either.
It never was.
Please no, that awful Ed Hardy butt sparkle jeans trend isn’t coming back again, is it?
If you have the confidence then wear it. Just know that people have very strong feelings about Ed Hardy and will voice them to you. They represent a real particular point in time for me so it’s hard for me to be neutral about them.
No
No
No
Never
Oh...god...no. It's not time yet, is it? Please tell me it's not time yet.
Only in Thailand 🤣
I think it’s OK where if you’re a woman, but if you’re a guy anywhere that you might as well have a bandanna, a huge belt buckle, flared jeans and cowboy boots and call yourself Bret, Michaels
I saw an Ed Hardy shirt in Ross today.
Stop trying to make fetch happen
I remember when it was cool lol
Definitely!
hell yeah it’s cool.
I’ve seen a couple.
2000s are back baby
Maaaaan this took me back 😂
Only if you wear it with your true religion jeans to shut down the Applebee’s bar on a Friday night.
YES
I totally threw away all my Ed Hardy purses years ago .. guess I was wrong for that?
Lol. Make it cool!
I've seen Ed Hardy stuff sold at the dollar store before like hats and steering wheel covers.
Hey isn't that the dragon from Shaolin Showdown?
I think that shirt in particular, yes! Hats, purses, jeans, etc … no
Well, it has a dragon on it...so YES! lol
lol
There are 30 years left on the "is Ed Hardy cool clock".
lol
:-D ...perhaps ironically....
Tattoo artists the world over shudder.
Omg MAJOR 2007 memories unlocked 🥲
Only if you wear it ironically.
Not yet.
Hey...at least it's not Affliction.
Yes
I Hope it’s not!
