PHD

i just went on to the PHD website and im not sure if its true that it was shut down, can someone please tell me

Yeah it IS shut down, I had a customer try to buy a top and they sent the wrong top wrong size wrong color and didn't take returns. I checked it out from msoPHATS because we also sold them, and there's no new ones.

The club doesn't exist anymore, it closed down a few years ago. They sold all remaining stock and rights to someone else in Malaysia and there's only a few unsold items floating around.

Don't believe the site and photo's they're all years old, msoPHATS stopped doing business with them 6 months ago.

Are the PHD hoodies from ebay real or fake ones cause some of them say restocked

I wouldn't believe them 'restocked' can mean that they've just taken them out of a cardboard box and put them on a shelf in the corner of their garage or bedroom. But they may be genuine remainder stock.

The club PHD itself was a dud mainstream club from the mid 2000's which closed down many times, along with the Kandee crew Dj's, It's not an oldskool club. They wanted me to advertise them on this forum when they were desperate and going out of business 2009/2010 and were told NO because the venue actually refused me entry a number of times, they're racist The 'pure' part of the label was code for racial purity - me, being and looking Sami, I was always rejected even when I went with other friends, who were let in and I was stopped on the footpath. There's no way Millie could get entry even wearing a PHD top.

I tried to sell them on msoPHATS for years and they refused, then when they went bust I contacted the same people who sell them on ebay, but they conned me with what they had none of the regular colors or sizes and they told the customers only AFTER we'd paid cash up front, so I dumped the supplier 6 months ago for bullshitting to me.

It's just a nice looking top, I don't mind it apart from all that dance nazi crap, but they ripped off the design from PIL - Public Image Limited John (Johnny Rotten) Lydon's band after the Sex Pistols. and did the fluro colors



This is Aslan wearing the fluro color white PIL top in 1991, as seen in Global Shuffle 1, they were pretty common in the oldskool because of the UV and fluro colors, that's what PHD copied including the drug pil/PHD/Pharmacy references.

Mr Lydons range of merchandise styles and colors, is still availible direct from the man himself even a PIL ring! http://www.johnlydon.com/jlhome.html but I'm not sure about tops, those would be collectors items now. You might like to contact John and see if he's got any left or might make some new ones. I'd sell them on msoPHATS if he's interested.

This is a great album PIL 9 released 1989, where most of the early digital fluro PIL artwork came from, you can shuffle to it as well
