Fakeless asked: I have this weird fear when it comes to my hands. Anytime I think about my wrist getting hurt, or my fingers getting broken, I freak out. I literally can’t stand to think about it.

Louis asked: Recently I’ve been noticing that a lot of my wardrobe is made up of No Fear clothing. Now I don’t go into a shop and think ‘No Fear must buy there products’ but I’ve found that often in shops its the only brand that has anything which appeals to me.
And I don’t want to look like a douche constantly wearing No Fear products. So what are some similar brands that are easy to get hold of in the UK?
