The partnership between the UFC and Reebok has been anything but smooth, and not just from the financial downturn that many fighters have expressed concerns over. From the moment the fighter kits were launched, there were errors in the spelling of names, errors in the origin countries and most recently, the shirt released the week of UFC Dublin angered many Irish fans when they failed to add Northern Ireland to the shirt they made expressly for, well, Ireland.

Now, the UFC is taking fresh heat from fans critical of their latest "Discipline" tees, andthey have nothing at all to do with Reebok. The "officially licensed" line is a UFC product and features the various martial arts disciplines (karate, boxing, Mauy Thai, etc.), portrayed by gray and red stick figures engaged in combat. If you liked the game, "Pick Up Stix" as a child, this line of tee shirts will be right up your alley.

These are cheesy and cheap looking as fuck lol. That said, they're only $24, so I guess it's not that bad. I'm not a buyer though.

It's always best to avoid hard drugs overseas.

"How can we make more money? I know, let's make some t-shirts and use stick men in strange stances"

How does this crap get to the point of manufacture? Those poor guys in Sialkot must be shaking their heads, knowing they won't be making many more of these.

Are these people remotely familiar with fashion, they're own product and the cross-section of both?

It's like a high school fashion design class project by the guy who accidentally took it and attends 1 out 5 classes.

Someone 'designed' these then sent the designs to a merch team for approval.
There would have been a few rounds of changes then they would have been presented at a merchandise meeting.

Then it was on to the higher-ups and other department's stakeholders who would have had their say then the designs would have been forwarded through to a product manager or some VP for final signoff.

There would have been many eyes on these from both Reebok and UFC before they were launched.

They either (a) do not understand their product or (b) do not respect their customers.

The Greco Roman shirt is a topless dude pleading with the topless person who just said no to his topless marriage proposal in shorts...

"I swear Jerry, no more Santorum buffet nights at the Perineum Palace, I'm the only one for you booboo!"

Any old schoolers remember the Kwon discipline gear? It wasn't great but much better than this.
