Kendrick Lamar Superbowl Performance Creates a Trend: Kick Flare Jeans
Not only did I find his pair and I also found Lamar-inspired bell bottoms for guys and gals
Kendrick Lamar SAVED the Superbowl with his incredible halftime performance. His jeans kicked off a trend. If this had happened a few years ago, his jeans would’ve had a Twitter account by the middle of his halftime show. Le sigh.
Questions flying fast and furious via SM about the jeans. What brand? What style? Where to get them? I’m putting the speculation to rest. They’re the Hudson Jeans Men’s Walker Kick Flare Jeans. How do I know that these are the fabeled jeans? I got an email from their PR firm. This Hudson jeans style is almost sold out on the Hudson Jeans site. However, I did find them for $265 online at Neiman Marcus. I did find them in black at Saks Off Fifth for $89.99; Bloomingdales has them in Resort Blue, on sale for $212.
The Hudson jeans are selling fast. If you can’t find your size, I’ve got a few alternatives for you.
