Are You F-ing Kidding?

I really don't think anyone in the action sports world really wants or needs a Chanel surfboard or snowboard - in fact my friends wouldn't be caught dead with them... But it does show that "alternative" sports are catching the eye of big fashion houses as they desperately try to tap into whats "cool".

Maybe the zodiac would be appropriate for your yacht while vacationing in St. Tropez ...

I would love to know sales data on these items. Just curious!

I would rather spend money on a bag rather than a skateboard or a surf... this is just ridiculous.

Amanda said...

If I was a surfer I wouldn't purchase these seems kind of label whorish.... IMHO... I wonder how they will sell.

I've seen a Chanel bike before. I believe that's the only bit of Chanel sports equipment I'd be able to buy given the fact that I'm not the most athletic person on the planet. Ohmigosh I love the last picture - that's such a fabulous advertisement!! :)

Manon said...

I would never buy one, but I kinda like the first one. Just to look at.

The Glossy Editor said...

ugh totally agree. hate the cc logo on surfer boards and snowboards. thinking these are for peeps like victoria beckham... who would never actually leave the lodge - but she might look hot on the way there? epic fail.

Michelle said...

What?! You don't take your designer surf board out for a walk in your little black dress and heels? Shame on you Cindy, shame!

Is it possible that they are having a little laugh at themselves. On the other hand, if you are in the market for a new zodiac, might as well get a chanel one.
