PS: listen to some Joy Division, it's good for the brain.

1. The Line graphics are based on the Joy Division art, I can tell you that for certain as I talked with Malcyzk about it at SIA

2. The 4bi9 Buff was designed by me, I was not inspired by the Joy Division cover. The idea came from the old shirt that had the headphones around the neck and the cord spelled out 4bi9. Originally I tried straight lines, but it just looked like stripes and they were way to trendy at the time. I also tried making headphones but they looked strange being so small. So I solved both problems by doing mountains. The mountains area actually based on mountians in Washington, Oregon, Utah and my hometown of Bishop, California.

We were going to do white and black buff but white gets gross real fast so I'm pretty sure they only made black.
