This isn’t a good week for clothing retailer Pacific Sunware.
First up was a mega-controversy over a T-shirt they were selling featuring an upside down American flag — shirts they were selling over Memorial Day, no less. Twitchy favorite James Woods led the charge to get these idiots to pull the offensive item:
Please, every follower of mine, please #BoycottPacSun. Disgusting trashing of American Flag on Memorial Day. pic.twitter.com/Bzm7FT6B31

Which they eventually did:
PacSun will stop selling licensed flag T-shirt. Full statement here: http://t.co/OURJbnDKfU

This brings us to the next potential issue…
Kylie and Kendall Jenner, daughters of Bruce and Kris Jenner, are helping to promote the Pacific Sunware brand later this week:

OK, but this would be the same Kylie Jenner under fire for also promoting ludicrous chemtrail conspiracy theories on her Twitter timeline:

Criticism of Kylie was immediate:
