If you’re a parent out on a clothing binge, you might want to beware – even clothing stores may have an agenda. Specifically, a brand known as “Obey Clothing,” which stocks Urban Outfitters, among other department stores, has been marketing increasingly aggressive looking products to teens, which include items like the following set of stickers:
If the Soviet reminiscent art style looks familiar, it should – Obey Clothing is the brainchild of Shepard Fairey, the man responsible for the tongue-in-cheek “OBEY” poster featuring Andre the Giant. Oh, and this gem:
And that’s not all Fairey is responsible for. Featured on the website for his clothing line is a section titled, ironically, “Propaganda.” It includes such ‘hopeful images’ as the following:
And to top it off, here’s Fairey himself proudly posing in front of one of these compositions:
The same style of iconography appears, albeit in a far more muted way, on the products sold by Obey, almost all of which contain some sort of anti-establishment implication – sometimes even verging into vulgarity or anti-Christian symbolism. Consider the following:
And just to repeat – these are not produced by some cut rate art house fashion outlet. The company that makes these gets stocked at Urban Outfitters and Nordstroms, among others. In fact, one of Urban Outfitters’ designers works closely with Obey Clothing:
Men‘s designer Mike Temosky is one of the main guys responsible for translating Shepard Fairey’s vision to Obey. But that’s just one of the many things he does.
The daughter of a Blaze reader was disturbed to find this label while shopping at Urban Outfitters:
Would you want your kids coming home wearing any of these? Weigh in below.

Posted on April 5, 2012 at 9:20pmThe latest in a long line of morally bankrupt entrepreneurs eager to cash in on the young rebels out there who feel a need to wear their political views for all to see. It’s one of those things we have to tolerate in a society based on free enterprise. The sad part is that these days there is absolutely no sense of propriety and decency in the marketplace. Like any other product that offends us in any way, we have a right to boycott the company and speak out against them in many ways. I wish this guy’s business a quick demise, but there is probably a disappointingly large number of youth who will line up to buy his garbage.

Posted on April 6, 2012 at 12:19am“What is happening to our young people? They disrespect their elders, they disobey their parents. They ignore the law. They riot in the streets inflamed with wild notions. Their morals are decaying. What is to become of them?” That’s a quote is generally attributed to Plato, but there are many remarks of the same kind from other Greek authors (that’s 2000 yeara ago folks).
Friends, lend me your ears. First, teenagers are no different than they were 2000 years ago. They rebel, that’s the nature of the human species and probably is the cause of most advancements in the world (if you believe there have been any). Second, this is the United States of America and we are capitalists. If there’s a buck to be made, somebody is going to make it. Please don’t tell me you are a Communist.
Chill out. Every generation thinks the next generation is awful, and they have throughout recorded history.
The world has problems alright. But don’t blame the young.

Just about every major problem this country faces can be traced directly back to liberals. And that includes Rino’s.

Posted on April 6, 2012 at 12:56amThere is a market for this kinda thing because those who would wear it are produced solely by your local school district and local college/university. Kids heads are so full of activism these days its amazing to see. Most of the things they believe they are championing are battles long ago fought and won such as equal rights, womens rights, work place rights and so on. With socialism its never enough, you never quite arrive at your final destination as you think you would, the next generation picks up the torch and its onward now towards totalitarianism as the last best hope to press man into the mold they have created. Its shear madness in the end. We are looking at the last best years of the USA folks. Enjoy it and revel in it for now because four more years of BHO will seal the deal forever for this country and this generation.

Posted on April 6, 2012 at 2:05amJZS, you actually make a viable argument this time. But let’s not forget to point out the deeper issue. Don’t ignore the fact that the kids are up against 100 years plus of progressive history rewrites and omissions. At least when I graduated high school, I knew who the vice president was, knew what and why about the Iron Curtain, had a rudimentary understanding of government and economics, and was able to wear my Uncle Sam “Kill a Commie for your mommy” shirt without offending the faculty. Now, the kids come come out flat stupid thinking they should be entitled to everything. Take an honest look at who’s been running the public school systems. And let’s not forget those younger ones singing praises to Obama – Hmmmm… where else did that happen, singing praises to their dear leader? Oh yes, N Korea and Nazi Germany.

As far as you not understanding the irony there I don’t know if this will help because it seems so obvious, but I’ll do my best to explain it for you. The reason it’s ironic to have a section on his site named “propaganda” is because the entire site is filled with propaganda. It‘s as if you visited the kkk’s site and they had a section labeled “hate speech”. I hope that clears it up…if not then check your voter registration and make sure that it doesn’t say democrat.

I kind of liken the situation to this …. it’s like a marble rolling around the inside of a cone , spiraling down. Each circle is lower then the next due to gravity, and so is it that each generation is a circle around the cone. So, in that you are correct. However, you fail to notice that each trip around the cone the marble travels is lower then the previous. Each generation is in rebellion, but each generation also get’s “lower” or more degressive in that rebellion. It is slow and unrelenting so as not to alarm.

Posted on April 6, 2012 at 2:06pm“There is a market for it because of our lax educational system and the shameless lies and propaganda that permeate our culture these days.”
The reason for the existence of the market is irrelevant. The point is that Obey is not responsible for creating the market, only for exploiting it. As a capitalist, one should not fault them for that.
“The reason it’s ironic to have a section on his site named “propaganda” is because the entire site is filled with propaganda.”
That isn’t irony. Irony is when something implies the direct opposite of its usual meaning. As TexasBeta said -
“It isn’t ironic, it is implicit. It is as if you walk up to a door that is labelled “bathroom”, and wow…inside, there is a bathroom. Moron.”

So many of your posts seem to indicate your belief that this country has only a finite amount of wealth, and that we conservatives want to hoard as much of it as possible, so as to keep the “working man” down.
Since you no longer respond to my “arcane” ramblings, would you kindly answer this query for the rest of the good Blazers?
Just exactly how much wealth does this country have to spread around?
An exact dollar amount please, so we can try to work out a formula for equitable distribution. Exactly how much is out there for us to divvy up?
See, I always thought that as the economy grew, more wealth became available for the folks that are willing to put forth some effort to claim their fair share of it.

@Therightofbilly: “Every problem in America can be traced back to the liberals.” Although I understand this is a predominantly conservative site, you don’t think GW Bush messed up in office? He did HORRIBLY. In addition, the economic crisis (the biggest problem we have currently) is not a result of the liberal agenda you like to detest so much. It is because of the big banks and the housing industry. The liberals are not the only ones to blame. It is EVERYBODY in washington. Everybody is messing up and the policies in place are sloppy, instated by Republicans and Democrats alike. Don’t push the blame on the opposing party, take responsibility for it together. The constant finger pointing is getting us as Americans nowhere. Both parties need to take responsibility to tackle these problems together.

Posted on April 5, 2012 at 9:17pmHow is it there are so many “icky” things out there?
Who is buying enough of it to keep the companies (and hollywood for that matter) afloat?
It would seem, if the stats are true, since only around 20-25% of the population are leftists and a lot of those leftists are unemployed, collegiates mired in student debt (OWS crowd), it would seem to suggest that there are a lot of conservatives funding such things too.
I find this possibility disheartening

Posted on April 5, 2012 at 8:39pmUrban Outfitters and Nordstrams? Wouldn’t have to worry about anyone in my family even being able to afford them anyway. But no, I wouldn’t let my kids buy them.

Posted on April 5, 2012 at 8:38pmWell young Mr. Fairey, who do you think makes these purchases? Thank you Blaze for showing yet two more stores, their advertisers’ that won‘t be getting my family’s business. You private industry folks still don’t understand that you can’t insult your customers’ and expect those customers’ to spend their money to be insulted. This process of elimination has been a joy. From Hollywood to New York City we’re now narrowing down those companies that are serious about their commerce. Those are the enterprises that have and will prevail throughout leaving two subjects all alone, politics and religion.

Report Post »I care! There have been a few of my posts that did not post but I don’t take it personally…I just move on & not let it ruin my day. Apparently I can be too bold & un-refreshing at times and I respect this site to let me know that I have crossed-the-line. I slap my own face, LOL, & move on. P.S. I enjoy kiwi but like avacados & kiwi and other fruits & veg are getting so expensive for my budget, I have gone to substitutes but won’t say what they are because it may be a hint for “them” to raise the prices on these items. These items are usually on the low shelves in a store as we do know, popular items..middle shelves & work-up to the top shelve.
Today here in Mt. it is raining & snowing and the robins are confused about the “popsicle-worms”!
Have a great day. Have a Blessed Good Friday & Easter. He Is Risen!

Posted on April 5, 2012 at 8:33pmThis clothing line is huge with the “hipster” generation . As as Conservative , I won’t call these stores and DEMAND they drop this clothing line , unlike LIberals and the Media Matters types have done . I express my opinion with my wallet . It’s that simple . I think I speak for many Conservatives .
