What's funnier than a Weezer Snuggie? Yesterday, I would have said, "I dunno, maybe a Mobler?" Today...well, today is a different day. And also the day I found out that Kings of Leon have a new clothing line due to come out in December, consisting of a leather jacket, flannel shirts, patched jeans, a fedora, scarf and...um...a bandana. A designer bandana that will absorb your small, dirty tears.

Since I know you're already glistening with anticipation after seeing Gold all gussied up in Flannelwill™, check out all the designs over at the Surface to Air blog, and save your money for a flight to Copenhagen, 'cause that's the only place you'll be able to buy this stuff (at a store called Paris Texas, no less).

* Adam Gold wears the KOL leather jacket (800 Euro), shirt (120 Euro), fringe scarf (130 Euro), belt (135 Euro), necklace (200 Euro), jeans (150 Euro), hat (180 Euro) and boots (390 Euro).

Me too. I said Matt Leinert. Good times and girls all the time, huge, guaranteed rookie contract, and none of that pesky pressure of having to actually play football every week.

Beatle boots and a coke-spoon lariat necklace, pret a porter. How very.
Is "Paris Texas" Danish for "Hot Topic?"

I guess I'd be Andre Agassi, so I could do all that meth. Wait, what was the question?

Yeah, yeah ... we get it! The Nashville Scene doesn't like Kings of Leon.

I can't believe Adam is smoking in his photoshop. Doesn't he realize he's a role model? Like Mark Mcgwire or Jose Canseco? You know, the Bash Brothers?
"Flannel Countdown". Good one.

The Kings of Leon really do suck. Badly.

Funny how you guys hate so much on like the biggest band from around here in a while. Maybe they started in Europe but this is their home turf too. We understand you don't like them, but it's a huge turn off to read about them every other week over dumb shit! Awesome, they are starting a cothing line! Good for them, wish I could say that was on my agenda. And the sad thing is, I think you do too... LOSERS.

Did Mookie ever say why he threw that can through the window of Sal's Famous?

To his credit, it was the hottest day of the year, and we all get a little crazy when the temp goes up...

The Cream doesn't like the taste of KOLs' shit. When a band succeeds & become adored by millions all the journo’s have to suck it up. Biaoch!

Also, I would like socks & gloves with KOL lyrics.

They could have inked a deal with faded glory & walmart.
also, Surface2Air presented the "Justice" line last year. http://hypebeast.com/2008/04/justice-x-surface-air-collection/
also scoffed at by just as many people, but the jackets were undeniably cool.

What's next? Dolls? Backpacks? Folders? When do the KOL bedsheets come out? I'd like some for my twin bed.

the difference between adam glod and KOL fans is that adam gold is smart and KOL fans are stupid.

this band just keeps sinking to new lows. first the shitty music (i.e. ALL of Only by the Night) and now the music videos (i.e. any of their new music videos in which they MUST be topless) and now this bullsh*t. yeah, im jealous they have a sh*t ton of money. but im not jealous they have to fake it everynight on stage. this band is crap now. they used to be great.
