Pair of Kings Season 10 Episode 12

Sol and Michael are back to discuss the landmark - and totally legit - LVMH acquisition of Chrome Hearts! What will this mean for the current it-brand? How will this affect the fashion world? Do monopolies impact the creativity and freedom of other companies? Tune in to hear the guys discuss the pickup, brand expansion into Asia, the genius marketing of Marc Jacobs, the steroids of the fashion world, mallcore and the loss of mall culture, H&M, skirts for men, how being sweaty is the death of fashion, and so much more!

We hope you enjoy, and lots of love!
