But the yellow one's nice, if only because he was a bit more disciplined in his composition and he used such a strong background colour.

Ecko's best when he uses a limited palette, it counters his tendecny to have visual diahorea.
Agreed. If they'd left off all the unnecessary craptacular "leet-speak", it would've been a fairly respectable and definitely bold design. Something I might've picked up for wearing around the house, not out in public.

Those Halo t's were pretty lazily put together, as are a lot of shirts he designed. I do like a few of the Star Wars shirts, though. Particularly "Storm Trooper Sketch", "Storm Brewin", and the Boba Fett hoodie.

Didn't Marc Ecko make a "game?"

I use that term lightly. Something along the lines of;

"Marc Ecko's Getting Up: .... (Can't remember the rest)"

Basically it is about graffiti. Enough said.

I really don't understand fashion sense nowadays.. People were paying over 50 bucks for a pair of Nike's supposively signed by some sports star, and now they want you to shell out 30 dollars for a hideous t-shirt that is so hyped up on sparkles that it practically shits out pixie fairies!

DEAR GOD WHAT HAS HUMANITY COME TO!?!

He's probably some fat slob, with a goatee and a shaved head who wears denim shorts. Gross.

You know, this thread's topic could have been "Marc Ecko Creates the World's Ugliest _______" and it would have the same impact. Marc Ecko is a tool.

I laugh at the people who pay $200 for something that keeps you warm, something I get at discount stores for $10 without looking like a complete douchebag.

Yes, if the stupid wording wasn't on there, it would've been quite interesting (though I personally look terrible in yellow, I still like the overall aesthetic) but as it is, it's just painful.

Oh god my eyes.

never been a huge fan of this ecko or whatever line anyway. The whole line of clothing just looks plain tacky. And yet young impressionable idiots eat this shit up.

I guess this is the kind of thing you need to wear excessive amounts of bling and listen to hip hop to really understand, because I honestly don't.

I like Ecko designs, but this shirt is horrible. Granted I would never wear a Halo shirt. Or any video game shirt for that matter.

It's undoubtedly more in your face then any other Halo T-shirt, that dosn't make it bad for any reason. In fact, if you were going to a fight or something, im pretty sure the gold color and guns would be rather intimidating. Plus if you have extra cash, and you have a lack of sleep wear, its large size would be a great shirt to sleep in. Though for my personal taste, I like simple T-shirts, layered upon a long-sleeve button-up shirt, or if im feeling lazy, a Polo.

Mark's really starting to run out of ideas for his shirts, which is a shame since he's helped set a new standard for fashion design back in the 90's. It doesn't really help that the ones he's showcasing look like something you'd find off a 13 year-old's MySpace channel. Hell, the Master Stalker and Laser are the only ones that look semi-decent. The rest might as well should be taken out of production, dumped on a barge, and burned at sea where we will never see them again.

That, I might actually buy.

Especially if it came in black.
Funny you might say that...


I've uploaded the rest to my site.

LMAO, I'm loving the random placement of UNSC marines on the 3rd shirt.

Made my day.
