ShareThis

Jon Gosselin has been showing off his wild side lately, sporting a wide range of hip Ed Hardy duds.
On June 4, he wore a $275 red sweatshirt while unpacking luggage outside his home in Wernersville Pa. Two days later - while taking 8-year-old twins Cara and Mady to see Disney's Up -- he donned a pair of $150 Ed Hardy jungle-inspired jeans (featuring two angry tigers on the rear).
"He seems to love our clothing," Tara Malia Gregory, the company's marketing director, tells Usmagazine.com.

Gregory tells Us the company's demographic is males, ages 16-30.
So what kind of message is Jon -- a 32-year-old father of 8 -- trying to send?
"People who wear our clothes want to show that they're edgy and fashion-forward," she tells Us. "They're in tune with pop culture and they like to take risks."

While Jon has never showed a flair for fashion before (his typical attire: layered sweatshirts; see above photo), he may have an inner edginess that's never been shown on television, Gregory says.
"Who knows if he has tattoos?" she tells Us, adding that she doesn't think it's unusual to see him wearing the youthful clothes. (Incidentally, Jon recently showed off a pierced left ear.)

"Dads wears our clothes; the Larry Kings of the world wear our clothes," she says.

It appears that Jon is paying to be chic.
"I'm not aware of any gifting to him," she said, adding that the clothes are likely not among the free perks he receives from his hit TLC show. "Celebs buy our stuff, too!"

UGHHH.. I HATE Ed Hardy. Period. So fucking tacky. That and Ferrari jackets and Lacoste polos with popped collars.

aabbcc · June 11th, 2009, 04:52 PM

Jeans with tigers on the ass =

msdeb · June 11th, 2009, 05:45 PM

baked_tater · June 11th, 2009, 05:55 PM

NO. WAY.

What a clown, he looks ridiculous.

Tiger ass and rooster head.

Idiots.

Sylkyn · June 11th, 2009, 06:45 PM

I had no idea who Ed Hardy was until I saw those jeans. Is he fifteen? My fourteen year old wouldn't be caught dead in those monstrosities.

maryk · June 11th, 2009, 06:52 PM

He's not nearly 40, he's only 32, but I guess when you're only 22, anything over 30 sounds ancient.

But I don't think I've ever seen any Ed Hardy stuff that wasn't tacky as all heck. And overpriced to boot!

maryk · June 11th, 2009, 07:37 PM

He's 32? And balding? He needs to hook up with Danielle from RHONJ's Steve LMAO. He and Kate seem a lot older, him especially. I know people 45 that seem younger than they do. Maybe it's the ten zillion kids.

nycgirl · June 12th, 2009, 12:14 AM

Ed Hardy is just so trashy. I picture the typical Ed Hardy fan wearing one of their lovely "outfits" along with a trucker hat, ugg boots, an orange tan and colored ombre sunglasses (and hair gel for men). Ugh.

AllieCat · June 12th, 2009, 12:20 AM

Giving him the benefit of the doubt here, but they are probably paying him to wear that. At least I hope so... The sweater isn't so bad, but the tigers on the ass is just stupid.

sprynkles · June 12th, 2009, 12:30 AM

An idiot is...a person who pays too much money (or any money)
to do free advertising for some company. I walked by an Ed Hardy store in
Waikiki the other day, yes vacay, ahh, and it all looked so Rock Of Love Bus!
Please, I'll wear Nike shoes cuz I like the shoe, but I'd never wear a Nike shirt
just because I thought it was cool to over spend on a shirt to make the other
monkeys like me more!!!!!!

Stupid lame monkeys.
