FIVE NINE?! that is not at all a complete and utter rip-off of another similarly named climbing company, is it?

unfortunately these companies (like Reehox and Nihe) are all too common here in Hong Kong.. in fact i might go looking for a FIVE NINE t-shirt right now (to match my BlueDiamond harness)

Homicidal Hitchhiker: You've heard of 8 minute abs right? Get this- seven minute abs. Ben Stiller: I guess you'd be alright until someone comes out with six minute abs. Hitchhiker: Six, there is no six. It's seven. Who works out in six minutes?

I will purchase any product that advertises that I am not concerned with my image. Being not concerned with image is SO COOL!

I'll second that 95% sure.. and raise you 5%..... the silhouette is identical, I hope that Bennett Barthelemy works for that company or at least has received compensation for it..... I wonder what the compyright "people" would say about a silhouette drawn from a picture????

I don't know, but I recognised it immediatly... I love that picture... If someone can make an instant connection, I'd say its too close to be seperate work... (I haven't looked at that picture in 2 months, btw)

I'm going to make t-shirts that REALLY show you don't care about your image. Torn, with armpit stains, that have obviously been used to clean off an oil dipstick once or twice, haven't been washed in years, and smell horrendous. Steve
