I don't own any Affliction, Ed Hardy, or Christian Audigier clothing myself, but I've always found the style to be unique and interesting. These clothes really stand out and help draw attention to a fit, muscular body.

I have thought about picking up a few t-shirts of this variety for the summer, as I've been hitting the gym hard this year. However, I'm a little bit wary of assuming the "douchebag" label.

I don't use hair gel (I shave my head), I don't wear gold chains or accessories, I don't have pierced ears, and I don't fist pump.

Could I pull off Affliction without being labeled a douche? Why is it that Affliction has become synonymous with "douchebag" and "tool"?

my wife bought me some affliction-like shirts from walmart. they are much cheaper and have the same look. im not sure the brand, searching on the internet shows it might be mma elite. i am a complete douche bag but by not wearing shirts that have a big "Affliction" on them, it usually takes people an extra few seconds to realize how big of a douche i am.

ive got a shirt with angel wings on the back, one has a couple of crosses on my chest, its hilarious.

if you really want to go douche bag, you need ones that are bedazzled and all shiny and sparkly. then people will really hate your guts the instant they look at you! wear sunglasses indoors to mulitply the affect.

What kind of girls you interested in nailing?? I mean nabbing?

There's a certain type of chick that goes for the Affliction wearing dudes. (Jersey shore chicks come to mind.)

As stated, the people that wear Affliction are 100% douchebags. They are definitely the most irritating people on the planet.

if you are looking for a girl that's DTF, wearing affliction will naturally filter out the girls that may be stuck up.
