Who here knows who Von Dutch was?

[Iain]

I had no Idea. however, I find it amusing that I can find the vondutch clothing line in all of our "ritzy" neighborhoods ( at least around here). good read though.

Its because people with money are trendwhores. Its like rich white (american) kids wearing Che Guevara shirts.

I knew nothing of von Dutch except that it was "from dutch." I have never owned a trucker hat.

Von who?

I've seen his name plastered on t-shirts.....no idea on the who or what behind it. Now I do. Interesting read.

I saw my first von dutch shirt about 3 days ago. I just assumed the kid was a homo, not trendy.

Jesus once again you say what Im thinking. Trendy fucks ruin most things. And you can test if anyone is REALLY into Che Guevara by asking them what country he was from. 95% of people that wear his image (including all the "Latino revolutionaries" here in L.A.) will say "Isnt he Mexican?". WRONG. He was from Argentina. And no one with ANY amount of money should be wearing his image. If you knew anything about what he was about, you inherently shouldnt be partial to him or his beliefs if you have money. But whatever. :)

P.S. My belief is if you dont care....dont post. lol ;)

I heard Von Dutch hated kids and teenagers

[Ryan Stewart]

Probably.

Che loved kiddies though, they would follow his ass into battle. Or, to be more accurate, go foward into battle

[golde30]

i never even heard of "von dutch" until ppl started talkin about it here...but then again i dont hang out with trend-happy-white ppl either...

[Jand3rson]

I never knew who or what it was, just thought it was a brand, really. That's cool to finally know who he was. I bet none of the tards that run around in shirts and hats with the logo even knew who the fuck he was. Not that I did, but I don't wear the stuff, for that reason. I suppose now if I were to get a t-shirt or something, at least I'd know what it was.

I want a Che shirt that says "Fuck Commies!" on the back.
