A Site Worth A Peek - retroCRUSH

You wouldn’t believe the serious lack of good sites on the web for costume enthusiasts. Well, maybe you would. I have scoured high and low for sites that have interesting things to read, cover a broad spectrum of costume interests, and are normally updated. Obviously that’s part of the reason why we’re here.

Well, we’re not selfish with our traffic and thought it would be nice to show off a site from time to time that has some kind of relation to what we do. Yesterday, I bumped across retroCRUSH.

First I have to clear up why we see retroCRUSH as a legit relative to MyDisguises. Well, the thing that first got my attention was the articles featured on the main page as I passed by. The first one is about the best superhero costumes of all time. I read through the logic behind it and can’t say I disagree. Second is a feature with Rob Zombie over the creepy Halloween movie that just came out.

Who doesn’t have a retro crush on this old costume?

The site doesn’t talk about costumes all the time… as they have clearly left that responsibility to us.  What they do well is cover years of pop culture with style. Even the site layout and design looks like the old days of the web. Nice job retroCRUSH! Active forums and a long time podcast only add to the coolness factor. All in all, it’s a site definitely worth checking out. I’m sure you could also get some killer retro costume ideas from them.

Check out retroCRUSH and let us know what you think. We’ll aspire to one day be that robust and full of good content!
