There's a fine line between cool and really stupid when it comes to tie dye, but if tastefully done I enjoy it.

^agreed it needs to be done well. I have a tie die shirt with hendrix on the front, i know it sounds cliche but shits wicked old. one of my buddies who was an OFFICIAL dead head got it like 30 years ago and gave it to me, so i have to represent.

other than that i have mad plain white tight-fitting undershirts that i pretty much only wear underneath my scrubs. it would be really intense to wear em around town or whatnot.

tie dye is freakin awesome. We've made them a couple of times. With a little creativity you can make some kick ass shirts. I made one that totally looked like a sunset on the ocean.

i agree it has to be done well.

i tend to like it more with colors that aren't the classic line-up, you know, just a rainbow. dark blue and green and then a really strong yellow highlight or a bright pink...it's nice.

it can be sick if its not too many colours, but really multicolored looks way too hippy-ish

yay, if you can do it yourself and it's not like every other tie dye you see on the street. for instance, i dyed a shirt once with the remains of the dye that i had, and it ended up being mostly white with a speckled spiral on it. i recommend trying it
