Beastie shirts at Target and JCPennys

[MCScoobyT]

I've been finding Beasties shirts in box chain retail stores recently.

I got two at Target today.
One is Brown with the HN cover image and HN font that says Beastie Boys. The second is cream and has the TT5B's font which say Beastie Boys and then a contour drawing of some fancy looking peeps eating at a fondu restaurant and below it says, "It's not the heat, it's the humidity". I have never seen this second design before. Both shirts are made by Six Fifty One.

I also scored a shirt that has the CYH album cover on the front from Penny's recently. It was made by Anvil.

Really? How cool. Just got back from Target. Should have checked to see if I would be lucky to see a BB shirt there. :)

I love that TT5B design, I'll definitely pick that up if I see it.

The title of this thread should be:

"FUGAZI BEASTIE SHIRTS AT LOCAL CORPORATE WHORE CHAIN STORES"

and this is not something you should be celebrating.
Beastie shirts being sold along side laundry detergent, Justin Bieber CD's, and frozen TV dinners is a sign of the Apocolypse.


Jesus weeps for all of your souls.

I am going to Target...

I do not like JCPennys. I do not even walk through that place. I might make it to a mall 2 times a year and when I do I say Fuck JCPenny.

Fuck it, the b-boys merchindise has been in retailers for years. I am glad to see someone making money.

I wasn't celebrating, I was consuming.
The whole reason I posted, is because this Beasties merch in big box chain store thing was new to me. I guess they sold (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEKbFMvkLIc) some licensing agreement recently.
I won't like it when I start seeing the same Beasties shirt being rocked everywhere I go, but it do push my Beasties shirt collection up into the 40's.

dramatic much?

[pm0ney]

I saw the CYH shirt at JC Penny over the weekend while cruising some golf gear. The more people walking around in bboy shirts the better. Thats what I say.

Only if you we're dumb enough to literally think Jesus was weeping for your soul over a fugazi Beastie shirt.

Wrong.

Seeing hipster wannabe kids rocking a Beastie shirt because it's the NEW thing in their JCPenney catalog, but couldn't name you three Beastie songs is simply the corporate raping the "Beastie" brand, and is an insult to every real Beastie fan.

I thought the supposed self-called "hardcore" fans that are supposed to reside here had more of a clue about corporate whoring.

I want to see kids wearing Beastie shirts because,...you know, they're actually into the music. Not because it's the "cool" shirt at Target.

And LOL @ anyone who buys their clothes from Target or JCPenney.

Ohhhh RobMoney$ is too "cool" for Target and JCPenney...

[RobMoney$]

I fashion all my clothes from plants and sticks because I'm just that hardcore.

That used to be for sale at the Beastie's own store (around the same time as the red parrot and the wildlife one). I really wanted that one, but at the time couldn't afford it (as the Swedish customs and post office add at least twice as much to the price.... :mad:).

[Savage Jimmy]

If it was a beasties shirt Id get one at a target... thad be the only time really

[Laver1969]

I see the whole Beasties underground/true music fan/anti-big box establishment argument...but who really cares.

Target sells their music...why not their shirts? Target seems to be going for the old-school angle. I've seen retro-looking lucky charms cereal t-shirts to van halen to bruce lee type stuff. Beastie tees may inspire some newer/younger fans.

The only way today's kids are going to get into the Beastie Boys is if they get to wear poseur shirts and it becomes the 'cool' thing to do. It's the way that bastard demographic works.

Personally, I'd be all for it. This same old tired circle jerk of blah blah blah is only rapidly turning this band into a nostalgia act. And fuck that.

[RobMoney$]

Yeah, fuck integrity.
It's way overrated.

Whatever lines their pockets.

[facedownfall]

Damn it...I've had that "it's not the heat, it's the humidity shirt" since a few months before TT5B was released...I always thought it to be more of a light gray color..the underarms have kinda turned white though from deodarant and sweat.

[scrappy]

I'd just like to point out that some of the vintage suits modeled by the Beasties during the Mix Up tour were made by Van Heusen, carried by JC Penney's and other vintage gear sold at Penny's years ago... Because of this, I've been inspired to also rock similar gear (for my job of course). They do carry some nice moderately b-boy styled business casual gear at Pennys, I guess I don't know why people here are so vehemently opposed to JC Pennys, cause they got some nice shit at real low prices. Not that I'm a fan of the big box, but Pennys to me is not a big box retailer, it's an old fashioned department store chain, nothing like Wal-Mart or Target. That being said, I would probably never buy their youth marketed retro- rock tshirts... they are totally lame, even if they are the Beasties...

Amen pm0ney!!!
Advice to the butthurt people: Go buy yourself a jim morrison t-shirt if you dont like beasties. I heard Jim morrison swag is hard to find, since hes been dead since 1967.

[DJ_Skrilla]

Shirt was definitely nice. I am partial to the ABA tee or the Mics of Fury tee.

[b-grrrlie]

One of my biggest favourites is the Board Of Directors -cartoon one.

[cj hood]

[bigblu89]

As long as the Beastie shirts don't become played out like the RUN DMC shirts have been the past few years, I'm all for it.

Guess you need to be in the secret society to be allowed to view Beastiemania at this point?

What a joke.
As if anyone cares that much.

Bitch is like 50, running around on some "STAN" shit.

I wore that bees + tea + boys shirt till it had holes in it and eventually basically disintigrated.

I still have my licensed to ill shirt from like '87 that says "fight for the right to party on the back, but it's so worn out it would probably fall apart if I tried to even put it on.

I wish it were black...
