So guys, how you all been?
Today I have another little interview for you only this time its with a 7ft native Yorkshire giant called Haden.. well I thought he was called Haden until he added me on facebook under the name Freddy. Anyway I digress, this interview isn't totally professional but that's the whole point and its a bit of fun so don't get your knickers in a twist.
Q1: Whats with the Instagram name?
MadebyHaden, i'd love a great story behind the name, truth be told I took it from the clothes labels 'Made in China' but 'Made in Haden' doesn't sound right so then I thought of MadebyHaden.. because everything on my account is made by me, (fits, most shots, edits etc.) so that made sense.
Yeah, 'Made in Haden' really doesn't sound right.. onto the next question.
Q2: You say your a hypebeast, does wearing a few Off-White tees count? What makes you identify as a hypebeast?
I didn't know I identified as a hypebeast? Ive had more than two Off-White tees if that counts though. Honestly 'hypebeast' is well overplayed now, I feel like its only appealing to 12 year olds to wear Off-White/Yeezy fits, even the word is just cringe now to be honest..
Fair response, about your bio then..
Q3: Okay I'll ask some serious questions, what made you start shooting and a fashion based Instagram account?
It started with shoes way back, always had an interest in shoes, then started taking pictures of those shoes and then from there the pictures went from my feet to my legs and then just full fits. Started shooting alone in a car park or wherever I could find, got my first feature then got hooked.
When can we see these leg pictures man I'm interested.
Q4: Whose content do you rate on social media at the moment and why?
@sangiev, where I started in fashion from his videos, but his account!.. @miakhalifa, @blvckmvnivc's account has been mad in quality lately. @hosseinpaker is one of the best examples of what NOT to do unless you're trying to be a tosser.
Hmm, I'm sure John and Sangiev are honoured to be up there with Mia..
Q5: Do you like Bradley Wiggins?
Whose that? Is he a hypebeast?
Im just trying to be funny, didn't work did it..
Q6: What makes your Instagram different from any other 'hypebeast' Instagram?
Nothing.. there is nothing different about hypebeasts anyway. It's all the same shit always, I don't feel I'm a part of that anymore especially with where I'm going in the future with my content!
Sounds good man, keep an eye out people!
Q7: Would you ever try a different designer to what you currently wear, eg. Rick Owens, Raf Simons, Dries Van Noten etc?
All of the above and more, Vetements, Acne Studios, Amiri, Fendi (all the way) and Haider Ackerman all make some HARD pieces. It's all sub branches of the same thing, I appreciate individual pieces from brands not just the brand itself.
All of the above do indeed make sweet pieces! Time to hang your Off-White up and put the Yeezy's away or is too soon?

Q8: And finally, what are your honest thoughts on @mvisoli's love for Taylor Swift?
No comment, it ain't for me.. but all love.
Agreed.
So hope you enjoyed that guys, something different to your usual, slightly boring interview with answers you can usually guess. Big thanks to Haden for answering the questions, make sure you give him a follow!
Should I make this more of a regular thing? Finding out peoples honest thoughts and answers to some not so typically structured questions?
Let me know!
