C28's Christian clothing

• Christian Pop Culture

The Not of This World logo, for example, looks like something from an old Led Zeppelin album cover. On one T-shirt, it's paired with a skull and what look like flames, plus the slogan ''Bad Company Corrupts''; look more closely, and you can read what's written around the edge of the design, a passage from 1 Corinthians: ''Do not be misled: bad company corrupts good character.''

The same tactic is used on clothes with slogans like ''Daddyz Girl,'' often linked to a Bible verse (in that case, Ephesians 5:1, ''Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children''). C28 sells similar items from brands like Souldog and Truth Soul Armor. The approach is reminiscent of anti-corporate ''subvertising'' -- manipulating a familiar logo or style to carry an oppositional message -- except that this time the message is not anti-brand but rather pro-Christ.

I happen to wear C28 clothes. I think there pretty cool. I live hardcore for Christ. So when I go to school (Im a sophomore in high school)and people see what I wear it strikes up a conversation about God. God is the biggest part of me, so why shouldn't I wear it on my clothes? I'm not of this world.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about C28's Christian clothing. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
