A mixtape for Backseat Kissing to

mixtapehoodiem A mixtape for Backseat Kissing to
Y’know, I’d love to be like John Cusack in High Fidelity and have a zen-like quality for crafting perfect mixtapes, but I usually find myself dumping a few recently downloaded MP3s (legal ones, well, as legal as Stereogum gets) onto a CD and burning it before I head for a night out (its a 20 minute drive to go see my friends). As such, my mixtapes are usually not well formed… (wait for the segue)

… unlike this form-fitting hoodie from Backseat Kiss Clothing (yeah, they’ve been featured before, but this is one sweet hoodie). I’m sure I’ve seen that style of design somewhere before, but knowing what retro-nostalgia fans people on the internet are, its pretty much guaranteed that I would’ve seen a tee in this style at some point. Regardless of originality, it’s still a very well made design, with a subtle working in of the brand’s name. Also, I’m a sucker for baby blue, but it does come in black if you like it that way.

    Hi Jack, I changed your link so that it would fit into the box.

    I like that tee (and it would probably look better in reality than on the site), but I still prefer Backseat Kiss’s version, even though its strictly for the ladies (and skinny hipsters).

    oh man, those rip-offs suck.
    the backseat kiss design was made from construction paper and the name from real tape ripped out of a cassette.
    the others one just look like they were made from a google-searched stamp of a tape and then put into microsoft paint.

    Yeah, I wasn’t saying that you were ripping, or that they were ripping you, it’s just a popular image I guess, and I still prefer BK’s version anyway.

    Oh I know! : )
    I’m glad that people appreciate the subtleties and details that take so long to create.
