At Diesel Sample Sale

— Tue, 29th June 2010 —

About Diesel, it’s no use bashing a brand based on rebelliousness — even if it’s a false, corporate, watered-down sort of rebelliousness. And about its sample sale, we can’t argue with the fact that seemingly coherent guys were leaving this afternoon with bags full of God knows what. Still, to our eye, these clothes suck. They’re cheaply made, and just plain ugly. Maybe it’s just where our head is, but the few wearable pieces we found only seemed suitable for lazy days watching the waves in Montauk — or Disneyland, but definitely not NYC.

Full price list and the rare wearable piece after the jump…
