It's a lifestyle brand, appealing to consumers that use branding as a form of self expression and identity. Not that hard to understand. See Salt Life.
Pipe Hitters Union (PHU) was founded in 2004 by a small group of special operations combat veterans that shared a common belief in the unity of cause, the willingness to face extreme obstacles head on and the absolute refusal to backdown in the face of adversity. Since then, the message has spread to like minded individuals from all professions and walks of life. Whether military, law enforcement or civilian, Pipe Hitters throughout the world are pushing their limits daily and making their mark.
What began as a brotherhood born from conflict has evolved into a commitment to continue to live by the values we hold dear, regardless of what stands in our way. The battlefield may change but our resolve to push forward remains the same. Our brand is a mark of distinction and a call for others to join us. PHU was born in the spirit of moving together in one direction through the storms of life, no matter how they present themselves. This is a call to embrace turmoil. This a call to thrive in adversity. This is a call to join the Union. View Quote |

My observation is that the majority of folks who watch Tarantino movies are middle class-to-affluent white men who had/have a near-zero exposure to the type of element Mr. Wallace referred to when using the term "pipe hitting." This caused a great number of folks to equate the term with someone who is a badass who might, presumably, hit another person with a pipe rather than a crack head who will torture another human being to death for a monetarily insignificant amount of crack cocaine.
Thus, the term has been adapted through ignorance. |

Someone watched Pulp Fiction and thought "pipe hitting" meant being a bad ass, rather than hitting the crack pipe.
Now a bunch of retards are proudly referring to themselves as "pipe hitters". |

Back when it started, PHU was popular with the overseas security contracting crowd. IIRC, PHU may have even been donating a portion of proceeds to some SOF charity or another.

View Quote Jules, Vincent and Mr. Wolf all have some class. Do you think they're really going to want to get medieval with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch? Wallace wanted soulless, cracked-out psychos for that job. |
