# Weapon-Inspired Accessories Diesel's AK-47SCARF By Elsa Blaine | Published 2008-11-30 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weapon-inspired-accessories-diesels-ak-47scarf References: [stylehive](http://www.stylehive.com/bookmark/Diesel-Online-Store-Mens-Accessories-AK47SCARF--Fall-Winter--Diesel-Accessories--Official-Online-Store-521289) & [store.diesel](http://store.diesel.com/item/tskay/3FD17CD7/rr/1/men/fall-winter/scarf/AK-47SCARF-/cod10/46111703SB/SWITCHCATALOG/0) An AK-47Scarf from [Diesel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diesel-3) is just what every weapon enthusiast needs. The firearm is realistically printed on the 100% cotton scarf, which is long enough to wrap around your neck numerous times. The scarf is part of Diesel's menswear Fall/Winter collection for 2008 and is listed on their website under 'gift ideas.' At just $50 a 'pop' I'm guessing it could be a big seller. Ah yes, it comes in iron gray, white or calla green. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Weapon-inspired Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create unique and edgy accessories inspired by weapons. - **Realistic Prints:** Demand for products featuring realistic prints, providing a visually striking aesthetic. - **Controversial Fashion Statements:** Growing trend of incorporating controversial elements in fashion designs to make a bold statement. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Retail:** Fashion retailers can capitalize on the demand for weapon-inspired accessories by offering unique and bold products. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Textile manufacturers can explore innovative techniques and materials to create realistic prints and patterns for various products. - **E-commerce:** E-commerce platforms can leverage the popularity of controversial fashion statements by showcasing and selling them online. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rugged Modern Holiday Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diesel-3.md) - [Cheese Pull Scarves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mozzarella-stick-scarf.md) - [Lab-Grown Fibre Scarves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-b-shield-scarf.md) - [Contemporary Military Fashion Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ukrainian-brand-rbtnk.md) - [Cozy Scarf Coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scarf-coat.md) - [Satellite Imagery Winter Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stone-island-earth-mapping-camouflage.md) - [Aromatic Winter Scarves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ricola-capsule.md) - [Scent-Infused Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stealie-hoodie.md) - [Game-Themed Tactical Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anti-social-social-club-1.md)
