Or were you so unhinged that you wore No Fear t-shirts?

Marithe & Francois Girbaud
Ron Jon Surf Shop
i was in a band in high school with a guy who owned not one shirt that didn’t say something like “fuckingroovin” or “farfrompukin” or “freakinshroomin” in the VW “fahrfergnugen” font. this is no exaggeration, it is FACT.
Actually, I had a question about Girbaud. I googled it, and it seems to be a pretty haute-couture French designer that’s been around since 1938. But circa 1992 or so, I remember seeing the name on lots of t-shirts and jeans and stuff, ESPECIALLY among the African-American kids I went to school with. What happened to the brand? Was it generally popular among African-Americans, or just the ones in suburban Chicago?
i had green girbaud jeans in 1991
sometime around late ’97 early ’98 VH1 was showing the best of American Bandstand in some sorta marathon and i was able to record a few. Wham! was making (i think) their stateside debut on the show. dick says “it sounds like a record out of detroit!” they performed “death by matrimony” and george and andrew sported matching, tight-rolled to the calf Girbauds. (tag on the front pocket’s a dead giveaway.) and that was maybe ’81. it was awesome.

TS: hobie v. Op v. quicksilver v. catchit
catchit might have had the edge when they launched the t-shirt with tails concept. also, my high school banned them because the administration was convinced “catchit” was a clever play on “cat shit.” ! the fact that it was very obviously a “surf lifestyle” kinda brand didn’t occur to them.
hahaha oh man, hard rock cafe. had the shirts, had a hat, had the pins.
I remember catchit!
I think I wore catchit once... :-/
