I love chicken as much as the next person. In fact, it’s the kind of I could probably eat it every day. Being a chicken lover, of course KFC is one of my favorite brands when it comes to fast food fried chicken. Do I love it enough though to actually wear merch from the brand. Loungefly, a Funko-owned brand that comes up with the coolest (craziest) playful fandom merch, believes there are a lot of people out there just looking for KFC-branded merchandise to carry around.
The KFC x Loungefly collection is an assortment of accessories for anyone who may be a fan of the brand and wants to add a touch of fun and chicken flavor to their daily fit. The finger-licking and mouthwatering line has three fun pieces: a drumstick-shaped crossbody bag, a mini backpack with a bucket of chicken as backdrop, and a Colonel Sanders-branded wallet.
Designer: Loungefly
The KFC Drumstick Sherpa Crossbody Bag is designed in the shape of the famous KFC drumstick. It is maid from faux leather (polyurethane) and covered in sherpa material with some details embroidered. The branding comes in the adjustable crossbody strap as it is covered in the iconic KFC logo. It also has an enamel charm attached to it, featuring, you guessed it, the KFC logo with Colonel Sanders’ equally iconic face. It’s the perfect accessory for those who want to make a bold and fun fashion statement.
If you need something a little bigger, you have the KFC Chicken Bucket Sherpa Mini Backpack. You get the classic KFC bucket immortalized in the bag in sherpa material. You even get some pieces of fried chicken peeking out of the bucket. At the back of the backpack, you get “It’s finger lickin’ good” written, in case you need a reminder that their chicken is that good. With detailed zipper charms and custom-themed lining, this backpack shows a true passion for the fandom.
Lastly, you have the KFC Colonel Sanders Wallet, in case the colonel is your fast food bias. The logo is the main feature, embroidered on the front with the pearlescent and foul details. It has a bifold snap closure and inside you have seven card slots with one clear slot for an ID, but with the die-cut shape of a drumstick. There’s also a zippered section to secure some items. It’s a stylish way to keep your cards and cash organized while showing off your love for KFC.
So, the question remains: would I, a self-proclaimed chicken enthusiast, rock this KFC x Loungefly collection? Honestly, while I appreciate the creativity and the sheer fun of these pieces, I’m not entirely sure if I’m bold enough to sport a sherpa drumstick as a crossbody. However, I can definitely see the appeal for die-hard KFC fans who aren’t afraid to wear their hearts (or should I say, stomachs?) on their sleeves – or rather, across their shoulders.
