BRAND NEW [WEDNESDAY]

Hip Dad’s Day

June 13, 2007

We all know Deuce in Gastown stocks a funky line of urban street wear. Well, get ready people, because Deuce is getting funkier – just in time for Father’s Day.

Deuce owner and designer Jason Dussault has teamed up with Gene Simmons to launch the MoneyBag website and the MoneyBag Limited Edition clothing line. The site uses cinematic videos with developing storylines, and characters Juan Love, Nick Dasher and Sugar to showcase the new line in “Apparel for Players.”

The first product under Gene Simmons’ MoneyBag label is a new line of T-shirts for men. Each T combines two colours of cotton that are woven together, bleached, hand-dyed and hand-painted. They’re enzyme washed to soften them, then appliquéd with high quality embroidery. No two are alike. All are individually signed by the man with the prodigious tongue. The T’s retail for $250.

KISS boring Father’s Day gifts good-bye. Why not rock Dad’s world?
