Agreed and agreed. Anything with LCD Soundsystem is always a plus.

I've seen those pants in the shop; they're real snakeskin. Python IIRC.

Apparently so... this clip from an interview in the Post:

"But don't be fooled into thinking Kos is some kind of vegetarian softy. Alligator jeans at his shop, for example, which smack of Hemingway's manly enterprise, sell for $35,000."

Here's the article from September. I think he looks great in the vid. The upturned woven shirt collar, neckerchief and bracelets, plus snakeskin jeans, bring a t970 rocknroll vibe to the Upper East Side. His longer hair in salt and pepper ringlets helps it work.

I received a postcard from Jay Kos announcing a "moving sale".

The Park Avenue store is to be closed. A new location is "to be announced."

I wish him well in his new ventures.

Hopefully that'll work out well for him. Seems more his speed.

He may not be fully SF approved but I like his spirit and am glad there are guys like him out there pushing the boundries a bit.

I was there last week. 50% off most items in the store, I think the EGs are $500.

Each leg of JK's python pants is constructed like a Tubo belt. Coincidence?
