“It’s a bandanna from a dollar store. I like wearing them in the winter to stay warm.”

“This is a design by the famous San Francisco graffiti and tattoo artist Mike Giant. I actually have a piece of his flash on my arm that looks just like the shirt.”

“I like to wear pieces of flair. My friend runs a printmaking company and we have always made tons of pins. He also has the worst, shaky, hungover, totally retarded handwriting. It’s supposed to be a peace sign. It’s a pretty classy pin.”

“We’re hooked up through a company in the UK called Low-Life. It’s the first clothing endorsement we’ve gotten. I used to have a belt that said Low-Life across the back really big. That was rad.”

“I love having knives ’cause they’re the most handy things ever. I don’t know if I’m allowed to have the knife, but I’ve never gotten into trouble with it. It’s a spring-assist Kershaw. Some drunk kid in Kansas City traded me this $100 Kershaw knife for my shitty hoodie. That’s one of the things I love about being in a band: getting free stuff and trading clothes.”

“Bill Hamilton from Silverstein gave them to me after we got robbed on tour in Vancouver. He gave me a pair of Cheap Mondays and these Obey jeans. They quickly became my favorites. You know how you see those frayed pieces on new, expensive jeans? These were not broken in when I got them, until a car hit me. I was riding my bike when a car struck me, and my front wheel got crushed. I totally skidded out and scraped up my arms. I got up, and the accident totally broke in my jeans! I could have died, but I didn’t. Now I have good fray pieces on my jeans.
So I’m stoked. Billverstein hooked me up.”
“Short black Cons—you can’t go wrong, they’re pretty much a crust classic. I usually wear Vans. I got these on tour when we went to see Silverstein on one of our off dates. They were throwing out all the junk that wouldn’t fit in their suitcases and the drummer, Paul Koehler, was getting rid of these black Cons. He had been playing drums in them for 28 days and thought it was gross that I wanted them. I just washed them and now they are some of my favorite kicks.” REBECCA FAIN
