I thought people in general were boycotting Hoorenbeek 1. because they blatantly infringe copyright by brazenly copying designs from RL companies 2. because they were douches to their own customers
Deadpool
: all of their Nike, Adidas, etc. designs are direct copies of RL designs, with even the Nike swoosh used (just backwards) As for the second thing, I don't know if I could dig up the old article
it was ages ago, something about how they hosted a photo contest, requiring x amount of Hoorenbeek items for a huge prize of like 20k Ls, then rejected them all because they were "low quality"
so no one won, and customers who spent thousands on clothes & shoes trying to win the contest got no response and the guys behind Hoorenbeek (Limer & whoever) were like "Too bad so sad" better luck next time
Yeah, I vaguely remember SCD or something running a piece on them about how they were assholes etc. Personally I don't go 'sheep'... I prefer to make my own mind up.
hey, it's up to you. I'm just tossing in what I know. Some are still staying away on principle, some people just go for the free shit (dunno if they still do the picks gifts), and some DGAF.
Thing is with the copying RL designs... They're not the only ones doing it. MP is littered with thousands of trademarked designs and copies of RL items.
thank god.that last guy had autoplay cranked on his website that motherfucker. i was about to cut a bitch if i had to look at any more posts trying to find that thing. not you, HIM
