Braun's Clothing Line?

by trippingandy on Feb 19, 2009 11:34 PM CST Comment 39 comments

Ok, here we go. I'm a long time reader, first time poster. I found this link, thanks to our friends at Right Field Bleachers, regarding Ryan's clothing line. I did some research on Remetee and...well, I think i vomitted a little in my mouth. For those that have stronger constitutions than mine, I direct you to this collection of "goods." I will be real with all of you right now...I am 24. I like to possibly think of myself as "hip", "down", "with it"...and so on. These designs are hideous. After 3 years of Marquette in the "nice" parts of Milwaukee, I've seen hobos that wear finer shirts than this...for quite a lot less. Maybe I'm not as hip as I thought. Maybe...I'm getting old. For those of you who have heaps of cash lying around and have Stevie Wonder as your fashion consultant, I'll leave you Ryan's clothing website. Now, if you'll excuse me...I gotta get me one of these wickedly awesome shirts...before Ashton Kutcher gets one. Oh boy!!!!!

Trust me, if Braun’s backing this, it won’t be like those tie-died monstrosities. I’d expect it to be more up the alley of Affliction, which beyond the price, is awesome.

…you actually like those monstrosities?

Ryan Braun doesn't need clothes!

I’m totally buying his clothes though.

kidding me...

Ya the Remtee shirts cost a mere 70-100 bucks. They are colorful and you can get your at your local Buckle.

If he starts frosting his tips, I'm out

I’d frost his tips ;)

You really got into my mind. Did you ever consider acting?

Braun's so lame sometimes.....

by tcyoung on Feb 20, 2009 8:10 AM CST reply actions 0 recs

yes, but we can forgive him because he's so awesome the rest of the time

but I wouldn’t pay 5 buck for one of those shirts. Granted my wardrobe consists mostly of Brewers shirts and band shirts so I’m not exactly “hip” or “with it.”

They remind me a lot of Affliction but just a little more… loud

don't sell yourself short

trade in those band t-shirts for more brewers gear and you’ll be the very definition of hip.

Also, cheese.

by Jeff Sackmann on Feb 20, 2009 12:43 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

and with it

I just sit back and root for the taser

by Hyatt on Feb 20, 2009 2:06 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

yes but Brewers shirt under Brewers sweatshirt under Brewers jacket gets a bit redundant. I gotta spice it up a bit with a band shirt once and a while

"my goodness"

by BrewHaHeather on Feb 20, 2009 2:27 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

you say redundant

I say “it matches.”

that is why

the folks of Pittsburgh wear a Steelers hat with a Penguins sweater and a Pirates jacket. They match!

the designs are too busy

from the article up on mlb.com, Braun did state that he wanted his line to be brighter than Affliction etc.—it certainly is, but there are too many design elements.

I’m just waiting for some popular player to show up wearing something he bought off of etsy….

Do people who wear those shirts listen to The Hold Steady?

or some other hipster group?

I don’t think hipsters would wear those shirts. Not ironically ugly enough to be cool, but also not cool enough to be cool either.

by Trent Durrington on Feb 21, 2009 9:19 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Call The Hold Steady a hipster band again.

I dare you.

I double dare you -————-, call The Hold Stead a hipster band one more -——— time.

The was supposed to be a picture of Jules from Pulp Fiction here. It made the most a lot more humourous and it annihilated the caustic tone. Apologies if construed as such.

Every time someone puts on on of these shirts

they are slapping the face of everyone who beat back the Nazis.

by Braunstalker on Feb 20, 2009 10:56 AM CST reply actions 0 recs

Do they come in kids' sizes?

If so, I think I know what my son the Braunophile will be getting for his birthday this year. Not that my wife would ever let him out in public wearing it….

Well, if I ever want to get on hotchickswithdouchebags.com, I know what I’m wearing.

Not to steal from the Simpsons

but I think that I just had a seizure from looking at those shirts.

I like them!

They’re a flawless mixture of art, culture, music and fashion. To me, each garment is a blank slate to express a mixture of diverse LA cultures and influences. We all know that these influences, originating from the graffiti lined streets and gritty tattoo parlors lining LA’s coast, infuse luxury LA culture through fit, fabric and art to create true "California Couture." I have to admit that the incarnation of high fashion fused with the essence of ancient cultures, evokes the power and majesty of the individual spirit’s quest.

Of course, if I thought about it some more, I’d pay about $5 for one. Also, I wouldn’t use the word “mixture” in each of the first two sentences, but would avail myself to a thesaurus.

tripping over ellipses.

have you taken any English classes at Marquette, trippingandy? this . . . is a proper ellipsis. please use sparingly. (sorry: i’s a college comp teacher.)

cause, you know, you can only take english classes at marquette or college!...

I untuck my shirt!

by Michael M on Feb 24, 2009 7:52 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

also,

The shirts aren’t cheap ~~- they run from $70~~$100, complete with rhinestones on the higher end . . .

maybe “hipsters” wouldn’t wear them, but i think the art school kids that i know might be all over it.

my two cents on The Hold Steady: they defy fan demographics — you can like them whether your appreciation for Born in the USA is ironic or genuine.

by baumann on Feb 23, 2009 1:32 AM CST reply actions 0 recs

It bothers me to no end when people think Born in the USA is patriotic.

by HRF on Feb 23, 2009 2:37 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs

agreed.

but...

BORN IN THE USA!!!

YEAH!!!
