We Hate: Affliction Clothing

Juiced up gym buffs and wanna-be hard core rockers are not my type, therefore it should come as no surprise that Affliction Clothing isn't either. I'll give it to them, they definitely have a loyal following, questionable but loyal. 

I don't know what bugs me more: the brand or the customer. The aggressive print on tee shirts and hats has become the standard issue for jackasses. Seen at places such as the Rehab pool party in Vegas and on the husbands of Real Housewives of Orange County their wearers are covered in Affliction gear. Tee shirts, chunky jewelry, belt buckles, hoodies - it's the uniform for those trying so hard to look cool; the operative word being trying. The clothing looks like giant tattoos on already heavily tattooed bodies, maybe that's the look they're going for?
