Kings Of Leon have launched a fashion line dubbed KOLxS2A and it's going to cost you a whopping amount if you want to look as cool as the Followills.
Vogue magazine has a collage of the full line, which is coming out through Paris, France's Surface To Air, available for viewing on its website. The fashion line just came out in Europe and will be available in North America on Jan. 25. Kiddies, start saving that allowance now and you'll be able to buy a pair of those jeans in about... oh, nevermind.
If you're too lazy to click that link, here's a brief rundown of what the line includes:
I guess this is what happens when you go from being a dirty indie-rock band sounding like a southern fried Strokes to aping U2 and selling out stadiums worldwide, right? It's either that or it's what happens when the mainstream co-opts the fashion you'd find for $5 at your local Value Village outlet.
Kings Of Leon are currently taking a break from touring, so you won't be able to see them wearing clothes that look like they came out of the local rummage bin but actually cost hundreds of dollars any time soon.
