BADFRIEND HOODIE — FOR WHEN YOU KNOW YOU DIDN’T SHOW UP
We’ve all had that friend.
The one who said “I’ve got you” and never showed up.
The one who disappeared the moment you needed them.
Or maybe… you were that friend.
The Bad Friends Hoodie isn’t just about fashion. It’s about owning your story — even the messy parts. It’s about admitting that sometimes, we were the ones who let others down. Sometimes, we had to walk away to protect our peace. And sometimes, being the “bad friend” was the only way to save ourselves.
This hoodie doesn’t ask for forgiveness. It doesn’t pretend to be perfect. It speaks the truth — even when it’s uncomfortable.
Why BADFRIEND?
Because no one talks about the fallouts.
The ghosted texts.
The fights left unresolved.
The silences that grew into strangers.
Friendship isn’t always soft and easy. Sometimes it breaks. Sometimes it’s one-sided. Sometimes, you have to choose yourself and leave others behind.
BadFriend isn’t a brand. It’s a statement. A bold, unfiltered message for the ones who’ve been through it. The ones who lost people. The ones who did the hurting. The ones who aren’t proud of it — but aren’t hiding either.
This is your reminder: you can’t heal what you won’t admit. And sometimes, the realest thing you can say is,
“Yeah, I was the bad friend.”
The Design
Every detail of the BadFriend Hoodie is intentional — from the material to the message.
Fit: Oversized and relaxed, because truth shouldn’t feel tight.
Material: Heavyweight 100% cotton fleece. Soft inside, structured outside. Feels like protection.
Colors:
Ash Grey — like friendships that faded without closure.
Deep Black — the weight of guilt, silence, or self-preservation.
Muted Red — the aftershock of emotion, not quite anger, not quite regret.
Front chest print:
BADFRIEND — bold, cracked typography. A little broken, just like most relationships we don’t talk about.
Left sleeve detail:
“Real ones hurt too.”
Because being a real friend doesn’t mean being a perfect one.
Back graphic (optional design):
A minimalist illustration of two figures drifting apart — connected by a fraying thread. Interpret it how you want. That’s the point.
For Who?
This isn’t for people who fake smiles.
This isn’t for people who avoid hard truths.
This is for people who own their scars — the ones they gave and the ones they carry.
Maybe you’ve ghosted someone.
Maybe you’ve been ghosted.
Maybe you watched a friendship fall apart and didn’t fight for it.
That’s life. That’s growth. That’s real.
The BadFriend jeans doesn’t judge you. It gives you the space to say:
“I’ve changed.”
Or,
“I’m still healing.”
Or just…
“I know.”
Not Just Clothing — A Conversation Starter
People will ask.
Why “BadFriend?”
Who was it?
What happened?
You don’t owe them an answer. But if you give them one, maybe you’ll start a real conversation — the kind you never got to have with the person you lost.
Or maybe you’ll just nod and say,
“You wouldn’t get it.”
And that’s okay too.

A Brand Built on Honesty
BadFriend isn’t about glamorizing pain.
It’s not about being edgy for the sake of it.
It’s about saying the quiet part out loud.
We believe in stories. In scars. In second chances.
We believe that even the bad friend deserves to grow.
We believe in clothing that feels like a confession — and a beginning.
Final Word
You don’t have to be proud of who you were.
But you should be proud of who you’re becoming.
The BadFriend jeans is for anyone who’s been on either side of a broken bond.
If you’ve ever walked away.
If you’ve ever been left behind.
If you’ve ever said, “I’m sorry,” and meant it — even if it was too late.
This is for you.
Own it. Wear it. Be real.
