San Diego Padres’ Matt Kemp Talks Love For Fashion

If he’s more of a custom or off-the-rack suit guy:

MK: I have a few custom suits, but I can also go and buy something off the rack and make it nice.

If we will eventually see him in a pink pants or fish shirt, similar to athletes like Dwyane Wade and Russell Westbrook: 

MK: Man, Russ is the only guy who can rock that! He lives on the edge; he can do a little more edgy stuff than me. He has tall and skinny body type. I’m a bigger guy.

If he enjoys getting dressed up and the concept of putting the right things together: 

MK: I love it. I love fashion. I love to go shopping.

What’s next for him in fashion:

MK: I would love to get with more designers and do some things.

If he’s ever been to the fashion shows in New York or Paris:

MK: No, baseball is a little different, It’s time demanding during the season and the offseason so I haven’t been able to go (to the New York or Paris shows).

His favorite shoe designer: 

MK: I love Lanvin.

If his recent trade from the Dodgers to the Padres affected his style: 

MK: It’s different (now). My love for fashion hasn’t changed, but now in San Diego it’s a little more laid back. In L.A. you have to get dressed up to go outside because TMZ or someone is always waiting to take your picture, but in San Diego it’s none of that so I can be a little more relaxed … when I go on the road I’m able to play up my fashion a little more.

If there’s anything that he won’t wear: 

MK: (Laughing) No open toe shoes!
