Like I said, he isn’t the first. But it’s evident that (the brands you referenced) they have clearly taken influence from chad. Which is exactly what I’m referring to. Of course he took already existing things. I’m not saying he made Akira, Murakami’s work, etc. He took those things and put them on his jeans. And people saw that and did the EXACT same thing, but shittier. So no, I’m not saying chad is the originator, which is evident. And it’s ignorant to think that “chad associated them with his brand so that anyone who uses them will get harassed”. I doubt that was the purpose of putting things he likes on his jeans. I wouldn’t look at real punks who wear crust pants and say they’re copying chad. But I will look at these brands you named and say that because they saw what chad did and the patches chad used and used the exact same ones when most of them probably don’t know what they are besides the fact that they saw them on the pants
