Chesney Launching Clothing Line
posted August 18th, 2009 at 2:30 pm by Josh |
Kenny Chesney is expanding his tropical appeal… this time to clothing. The new line will be called Blue Chair Bay:
The pieces — for men and women — are designed to look and feel like “that favorite T-shirt that you’ve washed a lot that is kind of sun bleached… your favorite khakis, and your shirt that you’ve had forever,” he tells PEOPLE. (Naturally, there are worn-in baseball caps, too.) Chesney was so involved in the design process that he even name-checks friends on some of the items. “I’ve got a shirt that says “Bob’s Charter” and Bob is a buddy of mine that’s been living in the islands for a long time.”
Sure, not everyone can live in the Caribbean like Chesney, but he hopes his new mid-priced line (ranging from $35 for a T-shirt to $72 for khakis) — which is currently being sold at Fast Buck Freddies in Key West, Ocean Eddie’s Resort Wear in Gulf Shores, Ala., and Levy’s in Nashville — prompts people to use their imagination. “Blue Chair Bay is kind of like the place we’d all like to go if we had no obligations or nowhere to be,” he says, “and that’s kind of what I want this clothing line to represent. These are the clothes I would pack to go to this place.” Count us in!

Update – The Blue Chair Bay clothing line will officially launch on September 1st during the MAGIC Marketplace fashion event in Las Vegas.

From the press about it, it seems it is only available in Nash and in Key West and Gulf Shores.
I guess he is starting with a very small market.
Hopefully if he does not plan to do major retailers then he will do it online
I hope we can order them online Christmas shopping will be very easy this year!!!!

• The Blue Chair Bay clothing line, inspired by Kenny’s sense of casual dress, gets its official launch Sept. 1 during the MAGIC Marketplace fashion event in Las Vegas. The line includes khakis, ballcaps and T-shirts. “These are the things you wear when you’re just being yourself, unplugging with nothing to prove,” Kenny says, “when you’ve got nowhere to go, nowhere to be, and you want to be comfortable but still look good.”
