Beware of Beard
February 15th, 2008 | Published in T-Shirts | 3 Comments
As one of the bearded masses, I’m totally wild over Turn Nocturnal’s “Beware of Beard”. I mean, it’s the perfect warning for folks looking for trouble — because much like the Wu Tang Clan, I ain’t nothin’ to fuck with…
I’m sort of conflicted over this shirt tho. Why? Well, because it suffers from one of the cardinal sins of shirts as far as I’m concerned — back printing. Now I understand that up and coming brands and designers want to get their name out there. I don’t fault y’all for that at all. But taking away from a totally awesome design by slapping a logo or some other unrelated bullshit on the back turns a sale into a no-go for me.
But here I am running the shirt anyway. It’s seriously too damn sweet to just straight up stonewall. As far as I’m concerned, the bad-assed front makes up for the meh on the back. So all y’all hipster kids who dig it but have the same reservations can just toss a blazer over it — or whatever it is you do now to look “dressy — but not too dressy”.
God, I’m so behind on the times…

I guess it is true that all pirates have some kind of facial hair.
