10 Times People Spotted Hilariously Questionable T-Shirt Designs And Had To Share Them

Everybody knows that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, especially when it comes to fashion. We all have our preferences on what we think is pretty and looks good on us.

However, when it comes to fashion, there are things out there that can be called objectively ugly. They can also be cute, weird, bold, or interesting, but they aren’t aesthetically pleasing, so to speak. Sometimes, that’s on purpose and sometimes it’s by accident, but either way, the result is the same.

The list below is full of such ugly accidents. Collected from the [Awful] Design and There Was an Attempt subreddits, they strike the perfect balance between ugly and hilarious. Scroll down to see the best of the worst.

There was a time when wearing ugly T-shirts like the ones on this list was a fashion faux pas. However, these days ugly fashion is a thing and it’s only growing in popularity. Celebrities love using their platforms to promote their odd choices that, over time, become fashion staples.

Take, for example, a total must-have in every fashionista’s wardrobe that years ago would have led to mockery—Birkenstocks. For years, they were touted as the hippie or the tourist shoe, or maybe something your grandma wore while gardening. It was the orthopedic shoe that kids who had foot problems wore, something you might have donned in secret, not as a fashionable summer sandal. Yet, here we are.

Birkenstock as a company has been around for decades (centuries, actually), and through it all, they always showed an undying commitment to their values. Those are quality, functionality, and comfort, the last one being the reason why they were so loved by those who couldn’t care less about style.

Fortunately for all of us, in recent years, comfort also become stylish. Quality, functionality, and the use of natural materials also followed, and, suddenly, Birkenstock-style shoes were on the runway. Celine put them on there in 2013, and we never looked back.

Another ugly shoe that went through a worldwide hating phase and now is loved by pretty much everybody is Crocs. According to Time magazine, this shoe that was created for boating is one of the worst inventions ever, alongside asbestos and leaded gasoline. At least it was back in 2010, when hating it was fashionable. Now, it’s a whole other story.

Similar to Birkenstocks, Crocs owe their popularity to the fact that people suddenly prioritized comfort over style. Sweatpants, yoga pants, and hoodies became an appropriate thing to wear when you’re out and about, so it’s no surprise that comfortable footwear followed.
