PureHero clothing ROCKS

Posted January 26th, 2006 by Howard Tayler

Howard in the Pure Hero Punisher CrewA couple of days ago my “Punisher” shirt arrived from PureHero — these are the guys helping to sponsor your daily Schlock fix with the Blog Ad to the left. The shirt is made out of a very fine polyester mesh (not “big-hole” mesh like gym clothes, but mesh just the same) with a monstrous latex skull on the front.

I’ll sum it up in three words: New Favorite Shirt.

In the photograph here I’ve got a black undershirt beneath my Pure Hero Punisher Crew, and I’m sporting black jeans, New Rock boots, one o’ them Hot Topic black belts, and a 50-year-old dark wool overcoat.

I wore this ensemble to The Movie Trading Company where our Friday night gamemaster works. His boss took one look at it and said something to the effect of “looks great… but you’re not packing are you?” No, my Frank Castle fantasy stops well short of me carrying submachine guns and large-bore assault pistols (to the video store.)

To be sure, Frank Castle would never wear this shirt. It’s too comfortable. Too STYLISH. His shirts need to be scratchy, and full of things like metal filings and dried paint.

Anyway, if you’re wondering whether the PureHero merchandise is worth the money (this was about twice the cost of a regular cotton tee-shirt), I assure you it is. Because, as I said, “NEW FAVORITE SHIRT.”

    Looking good, pinkskin! :)

  2. Kazriko Says:

    That logo is definitely not worn enough to be the real thing, but looks nice. :)

  3. Michael Says:

    Gee, Howard, I had no idea you were so short!

  4. Howard Tayler Says:

    Yeah, foreshortening does that. I always look shorter when photgraphed from above. (This photo was taken at waist-height looking almost straight down on me. We had to be careful not to get Sandra’s foot in the shot, or I would have looked REALLY tiny.)

  5. Jason Says:

    Or it would’ve looked like a crossover between “The Punisher” and “Attack of the Fifty-Foot Woman”. An interesting movie proposal if I’ve ever heard one.

    Now, that’s the nice thing about Virginia. I CAN pack at the video store [eeevil grin]

    My cousin the goth… need to get that skin more pale though.

  8. Doc Says:

    Howard, seeing that picture contrasted with the pictures I have of you in my mind’s eye with a beard… you look WAY younger without the beard.

    -D

  9. Xenolith Says:

    He looks younger because he’s skinnier. Although one advantage from shooting from above is that it makes the face and neck more flattering.

    It is a nice shirt… although I like this version a little better:

    The camera angle… It’s Chibi Howard!

  13. ArdRhi Says:

    Awww, AK-Nut…you beat me to it! Then he needs to get his Florida out-of-state CCW permit, so between the two permits, he could carry legally in 32 states!
