Through his association with Sailor Jerry, Hardy was invited to study tattoing in Japan in 1973 with the Japanese classical tattoo master, Horihide. He became recognized for incorporating Japanese tattoo aesthetic and technique into his American style work.

MAN's CORNER


For the man's section, what attracts me the most is those awesome T-shirts, yea..you may think is just an ordinary T-shirts, and is not worth RM500 getting one, but you are absolutely wrong! Ed Hardy is a brand with an attitude, you wear it with pride, with a status and with class. They only produce very limited quantity on one design of any of their products from shirt, jeans, shoe to accessories, that's why it attracts the eyes of the celebrities around the world. My tips on dressing is just mix and match, just watch the video above on how they wear it with style, flaunt your sexy belt and underwear out is sort of cool way on wearing it. The most basic one is just a T-shirt match with a jeans will do, oh ya, not to forget to mention the cap as well. By the way, I'm gonna grab a few beach wear shorts for my Penang Trip next month..yeehaa!!! now about the pricing... a t-shirt can cause you RM300 and as expensive as RM700++ or higher, don't complain! as i told you before, this is a celebrity apparels, and wearing it is just like wearing Don Ed Hardy's tattoo on your body. For the rest of the items is usually between RM200 - RM600. So bring extra cash guys!























































WOMAN's CORNER


Well as for the ladies, I'm so pretty sure that your fashion sense is even greater then me right? Just wear it extra ordinary with matching what your taste is like. Ed Hardy has lotsa sexy beachwear line for you hot chics! and be sure to grab those accessories like ear rings, wristband as well. The pricing for ladies is slightly higher then the guy's range. (just refer back to pricing of guys above) Oh ya, be sure to grab one size smaller then the size usually you buy because Ed Hardy's clothes can be stretch, so it can show your sexy figure :)

























































































KID's CORNER


Look at those cool stuffs for kids, from shirt to pants, bags and even belts...my God... I'm gonna grab those hot stuffs for my son and daughter. Well how to dress up your kids? i think the most simple and safest is do a father-son, mother-daughter family wear, you don't want your child to look different and not resembling you, right? The pricing for the kids range is much more cheaper that you can afford compare to visiting Guess Kids, Gap kids... Hey watch out the kids of rockstars!













































































ACCESSORIES CORNER


Lastly on the accessories, remember to grab those caps, wristbands, belts and shoes..whichever stuff that can mix and match with you top...wear it to hit the shopping mall on weekends or even to a party. Is not a must, but essentially, it will grab some attentions from the public...trust me... few guys notice my belt when i flip up my shirt to reach my hand to my pocket... :)

The pricing for this range is always affordable...trust me.
