American Apparel's new denim line has arrived today and is pretty much exactly what you would expect from an American Apparel denim line: Two styles (high-waisted skinny jeans or high-waisted shorts) priced at $58-$80. Looks like AA's gearing up for another typical summer of disappearing waists, shorts that are far too short, and of course, legal troubles. [Denimology]
