      It kind of goes both ways where I live, here you'll nyot only see girls as young as 8 in black sportswear with skincare routines that have prices in the triple digits but you'll alsyo see girls as old as 16 or even older wearing shirts with Minnie Mouse, Disney princesses or even straight up preschool cartoon characters on them and galaxy print unicorn leggings (often they don't wear this by choice though, parents here are big on forcing their teen/young adult kids to stay inside/have nyo say in what they wear/nyot have any friends/etc).

    I was a justice model in 2012/2013. I’m the blonde girl on the cover at 7:37! I LOVED working for them. The most fun shoots ever. They really did make everything up so much - They did our hair, makeup, and nails EVERY SINGLE DAY. It was wild. The marketing team always made fun of the clothes. It was a fun time.

    As somebody who used to wear, and then work for Justice: it was a total blindside. Out of nowhere people kept asking us when we would be gone, and we didn't know. I got really upset that the plus sizes that were included were great, and yet they eventually cut back on their plus sizes. So many little girls would literally cry because they wouldn't be bullied for having to wear adult clothes, and then they would cry when we had something that was cute and actually fit them. (I also wore the plus size justice things, and still have pieces I wear regularly that are super cute.) It was super rewarding working there and helping girls feel their best. The clothes overtime became less maximalist. We eventually started running out of sizes quickly. We stopped being able to provide the top tier customer service due to everything going south. During summer of 2020, while nobody was able to be there, we would pack orders for hours on end, and would pump out like 400-500 a day. The worst part of it was loosing a family I had gained from working there. We still have the work group chat that we talk to each other in. We still keep in touch, and still see each other from time to time. I miss you Justice. 😪

    definitely hit hard when you talked about the fading tween culture of the early 2000s-2010s, i for one definitely miss it!
    i remember as a kid being super excited to enter that tween stage, being inspired by the media that i had been consuming such as disney channel original movies and the like, but my actual entrance into "tween" age was RIGHT at the time that the culture was fading, and i saw the people around me trying to follow trends of older teens and adults on social media. i never had social media as a kid so i didnt even know where the influence came from, only that i was the outlier who still acted and dressed very childish while everyone else tried to be as grownup as possible
    it makes me very happy that trends like y2k and kidcore, both of which im very fond of (particularly the latter), as well as other alternative fashion that tries to play into the early 2000's vibe is popping up again! it gives me a huge sense of nostalgia, and a bit of a sense of belonging as a kid who never truly grew up in the first place
    on another note, i just binged this entire channel in a day and i am completely hooked, keep up the cool nostalgic content and analyses, theyre so interesting!!!!

    Honestly, if they made clothes in adult sizes, since I'm not outgrowing things and find more expensive clothes justifiable, I'd be 100% down to get some shirts since they'd work well when toned down somewhat with something more neutral stylistically, like a denim jacket. They make great pops of color to otherwise more boring outfits, especially the ones that are more just neon patterns.

    I was obsessed with Justice and a majority of my closet from 3rd-5th grade was full of bright colored corny shirts. I also played softball in elementary school so my mom had gotten a bunch of those athletic shirts with SOFTBALL in bold print on the front and purple tie dye being my favorite, as well as a horse riding one with matching leggings when I rode horses for a couple years. The chokehold this store had on me, it was like TikTok but before it was created, I could go into that store and spend hours looking at the crappy things they sold at the checkout or the walls of plushies. Crazy to think how different I am over the time span of 3 years and how 13 year olds today would probably laugh at how 13 year old me dressed.

I couldn't believe it. I never went in because Claire's was to us '90's tweens what she's describing Justice was to the late 2,000's tweens. It was an experience. Claire's was always located in a mall. And going there you were just overwhelmed with all the cool, trendy, cutesy stuff. It was a treat to go and buy some cool things, usually some jewelry or lip gloss, etc. The whole ambience was a vibe unto itself. I can't imagine it ever having even close to the same effect being located in the front of Walmart, alongside nail salons and hair salons and a fast food place. Maybe it was one of those situations where you just had to be there and be the right age for it to cast it's spell on you. But every girl growing up in the '90's loved Claire's. It was just a given.

      @@thedinogamer_fn3073 That's true, there were a lot of stores with stuff just for little girls but none for little boys! Of course anyone can wear what they want, it was just that so much was focused on fashion made to be for little girls.

    I loved justice so much and when I was in elementary school the justice backpacks were so popular that I begged my mom for one. I would get those shirts with the sequence that flipped, lip gloss, jeans, stuffed animals, and jewelry. . I was obsessed. I love your channel btw.💗

    When I was younger, sometimes around the age of 8-11 years old, ALL of the girls started wearing justice styled brands and accessories. I remember being so jealous of this one girl who had a pink backpack her her first initial on it (We both had the same letter, which was K) and I had constantly asked my mom for that bag. I eventually got it, and used it for like a year before moving on to my anime "phase" (It wasn't really a phase cause I still love anime, but back then I would flaunt how much I loved anime and thought I was "quirky") I swear, it was Justice and Claires that I was always so interested in around that time, but I didn't really wear the clothes, it was always just the accessories. I hated wearing pink clothes at the time, but I absolutely loved the bags and jewelry they had 😅😂🥰

    justice is such a bitter sweet memory to me. i wanted so much to be a justice girl but i was too big for a lot of the stuff or my parents hated the price tag. i remember getting a webkinz from there once and a backpack w/ a keychain of that monkey, they were like gold to me. I also relate to the bullies being the ones who wore it, so it’s all jumbled lol . i def tried to replicate the look, it was just peace signs shirts and zebra print i could find at walmart.

    Born in 2006 in Mexico with an economic class that could not afford that type of clothing or just focus on it, I think I never had this experience, but it's incredibly entertaining to see what others do

    I remember having a whole entire Justice phase at 9 and 10 years old from the clothes alone to the accessories and even their school supplies. The excitement that overcame me when I received a new magazine every month was astronomical. Man, I miss those moments.

    I couldn't afford Justice, mainly wore children's place clothes. Even the stuff I wore as dupes for my old school's expensive uniform were from there. But I loved the knickknacks and dolls that were in Justice. And I thought those food pun shirts were the best. I had this food pun shirt that had bananas on it and said "wanna hear a potassium joke?" "K" I think I only got it because I saw something like it at justice once. That was my favorite shirt for years.

    I shopped at Justice briefly for their cool arm warmers/fingerless gloves, mostly bc I was scared of the hot topic next to it 😂 I ended up walking in one day in 2011 and I’ve been a hot topic fan ever since. The mall both stores inhabit is still open but the Justice is closed at weird times whenever I visit

    Oh /man/ was I living that “Justice-core” life. My entire wardrobe was from there, plus my socks, shoes, backpack, duffel bag, lunchbox, nail polish, hair accessories, jewelry, journals, my first training bras and sports bras, a Snuggie… and, of course, the moon chair (I had the white one with blue, purple, and pink polka dots). Everything I touched ended up with glitter on it. Justice was my LIFE until I hit my fandom phase in middle school, and even then I still wore my less flashy Justice clothes and jewelry until I grew out of them or they fell apart. I remember my favorite necklace was this purple cotton choker with a magnet on it where you could switch out different bottle cap pendants with little graphics or sayings on them. I felt like the coolest kid on the planet in that thing.

    Justice’s sports section was the silver lining for me when it came to not shopping in the boys section. I thank justice for not being so overtly girly I guess, I remember justice also had a “boys” section that I would run off to and try to beg my dad behind my mom’s back for a skater boy shirt.

  • @bread4585

    girls had Justice while boys had those 'Will trade sister for VIDEO GAMES', "EAT. SLEEP. GAME. REPEAT" and other shirts like it, i had a few of them as a kid and even then i thought they were a little tacky. i had those one shirt though that absolutely rocked; it was a comic-book-style graphic long-sleeve shirt that was 'THE ATTACK OF THE FACE-MELTING GUITAR SOLOS'. genuinely the coolest / most badass thing a 7-year old bread could own as a shirt.
    side-note; it drives me crazy how nice and soft women's t-shirts are compared to mens. i somehow got an old t-shirt of my moms and it's one of my favorites because i can always clean my glasses on them, can't say the same about any of my other clothes.

    I’m 22 now and I’m from Russia. Even we had this shop and it brings me the best memories from my 12-13’s) I had a pair of cool rainbow sneakers, pyjama set and a very nice hat from Justice. They are still in my heart.
    Oh and I had a rainbow shoper with peace sing on it that I used to carry my books to my first English classes. I loved these classes because I was able to show off with my bag))))
