UGP vs. Kr3w

It's cool for clothing companies to draw inspirations from outside sources, but to not blatantly rip said source off.

Case in point: back in 2004, UGP released a tee shirt entitled "Hesh n' Fresh", and was part of their Fall/Winter 2004 line.

Fast forward to today: Kr3w releases a tee shirt called "Muskull", for their Fall 2007 line. It is strikingly similar to UGP's shirt, which was released 3 (three) years ago. It even has a vuitton-style pattern, just like UGP's (although it's a little hard to see b/c of the file size).

Coincidence? See for yourself.

You could probably go find a hundred shirts similar to the one in kr3w's fall line.

But yeah the Vuitton style is all too striking in both shirts, even though it's used a lot these days.

Probably happens more than we think.

I personally love KR3W products, I just don't like LRG.
