TXT‘s merch for ‘The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY’ Pop-Up Store is gaining attention for all the wrong reasons.
Some of the clothing items consist of a t-shirt, long sleeve, hoodie, and crewneck, and range from $32 to $64 USD.
However, the designs are receiving bad reactions from netizens for their “lazy” and overly simplistic style.
Netizens left a slew of comments criticizing the designs.
- “It’s bad.”
- “It’s hilarious to boycott something because it’s bad, but I totally get it. I’m most tempted to boycott when something looks terrible.”
- “That pink… seriously…”
- “At least number 22 (the long sleeve) is better… sigh…”
- “Wow…”
- “The lack of aesthetic sense is insane. They designed it like that and expect to charge 50,000 to 90,000 KRW ($36 to $65 USD).”
- “Did they… put no effort into it?”
- “I wouldn’t even buy it for 5,000 KRW ($3.6 USD).”
- “No aesthetic sense…”
- “It’s so bad.”
However, the company soon issued a statement changing the clothes in the slightest way. The merch items went from cool-toned…
…to warm-toned.
No further changes have been made to the design currently.
