Not everyone in a Tapout shirt is a douchebag...but douchebags can often be found in them.

How about someone with white sunglasses indoors with a Tapout shirt?

Meh why not.....
I'm just worried that the douche (or douchette) ratio to normal person is going to be insane in a UFC gym. The ratio is high enough in a normal one as it is.

A friend of mine (who has a black belt in Kung Fu) has started challenging everyone wearing tapout and affliction shirts to fight. At which point he starts doing spinning heel kicks. It is funny to watch go down.

They are starting to become popular here in Australia and yes, it is generally with the douche bags...

I'm a second dan in Shotokan Karate and cross train in both Kyokushin Karate and BJJ. Needless to say, I love MMA as much as the next guy, but I wouldn't be caught dead in a Tapout shirt...

I wear a Tapout shirt to mow the grass, change the oil, and other general outdoor maintenance projects around the abode. And yes, I am a douche when I have to do yard work.

Yep.

The best ones who wear them are middle age guys with the love handles who walk around with their fists all curled up and trying to bulge out their chest. They usually have the pseudo mohawk going as well, or some phony trucker hat on backwards too.

He does it for a laugh. He isn't really serious.
