What better way to open a new Diesel store than by feeding some musicians dinner? Diesel jeans are notorious for being some of the best jeans out there, while also carrying one of the biggest price tags. We’re not so into the whole “For Successful Living,” slogan of Diesel, but we do think they make good quality jeans. It’s also cool that Diesel is an Italian-based company. Their location in Rome is pretty different from any location in the US though. For instance, the pants sold there are typically sold in one longer length that you then have to get hemmed, as opposed to having a selection between different pant lengths. That’s not an issue though, because the store has a tailor there who will custom-fit the pants to you–free of charge–but only on certain days of the week (which may be too bad for you if you’re just a tourist in Italy at the time).

Our two favorite artists from the video that follows are Theophilus London and Spank Rock, but we’ll probably be getting back to you on the rest of them at some point in the near future. Looks like the food was pretty good at the opening. Diesel doesn’t have to pay-off hipsters to sell cool clothing, though: it was just a coincidence!
