RANDY COUTURE AND AFFLICTION CLOTHING TEAM UP TO UNLEASH XTREME COUTURE AT LAS VEGAS POOL SHOW

(SIGNAL HILL, CA) – Affliction Clothing, the premier label for men who love hard rock and fast living, has partnered with Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) heavyweight champion and mixed martial arts legend Randy “The Natural” Couture to form a new collection appropriately named XTREME COUTURE. Randy Couture will be an integral part in the creation of the new clothing line of shirts, jeans, belts and accessories and will be at the Project Show to greet fans and conduct interviews along with other UFC fighters. SEE SCHEDULE BELOW.

Randy Couture, who has become the face UFC, began as a collegiate Greco-roman wrestler and became the world’s most dominant professional mixed martial arts fighter. Randy is the current UFC heavyweight champion and the fourth fighter inducted into the UFC hall of fame. He is the only athlete to have held championship titles in both the heavyweight and light heavyweight divisions of the UFC and is the only five-time champion in the league’s history. His reputation and accomplishments have earned him the nicknames “The Natural” and “Captain America.”

“I am excited about this opportunity to create a line of apparel with Affliction that not only appeals to me but my fans as well,” stated Couture. “Affliction has always been at the cutting edge of fashion and creating quality clothing. To join with them to bring forth my line is going to be exciting and I am looking forward to the future with XTREME COUTURE.”

Already a mainstay for the heaviest bands, A-listers, and the fashion conscious, Affliction Clothing’s ability to set the bar high is evident in its collection’s indulgence of style and design, focus on quality, and its trademark series of divinely executed, dark and powerful themes.

With the introduction of t-shirts, thermals, and sweatshirts this collection of styles has an unrivaled level of sophistication and quality. XTREME COUTURE’s distinctive tops are complimented with various print techniques, hand installed studs, and appliqu patches. XTREME COUTURE has definitely taken the gloves off and will be unleashing its power on the MMA and extreme sports market with unrivaled style and quality. Each intricate graphic is created by Affliction’s team of artists and is a distinctive work of art. The graphics are screen-printed using water base inks, which yield a no-hand feel and add to the vintage look.
