agreed - I think most of the anti-tapout crowd has to do with a dislike of the 'tapout crew' and how the image they choose for themselves. That, and they have some ridiculous and ugly designs. I would go outside in my boxers before I ever put on a pair of Grandma's Drawls or Way Past Plutos.
They do have some good designs as well - I like most of their signature fighter series (like Franklins, like Horn's, like Diego's) - but IMO alot of their designs are crap as well.
And they are the most image-centric mma company. There's really no other legitimate explanation for why some of their shorts run $50-70 when there is little that is outstanding about the actual structure of the shorts. They advertise their shorts with a model sitting on a toilet, they sell posters of the owners. They've created an image and market it for themselves. That's going to generate ire from people who dislike that.
