Destroyed Baggy Jeans

We've posted about ripped jeans before. But these take the concept to a whole new level of grottiness.

You can purchase them via Bergdorf Goodman for only $2,450.

They make you look like you were sitting on a case of cartoon dynamite when it went off.

For the original price of a pair of jeans and a few hours work on one of my cars I can save $2420! What a bargain!

If a person pays $2,000+ dollars for a pair of ripped up filthy jeans you can bet on the following: that person has too much money AND they don't do manual labor. Pre-destroyed jeans will give the impression of hard work and not having the money to buy, and care for, a decent pair of jeans.

I found another article about these jeans. Apparently there is a matching jacket. $5,000 takes the set. And the cake.

I's gonna make a wild guess that the $5k for the suit doesn't include S&H.

Comentor earlier had said they found a jacket for 5k enlighten us with the web site. It would be fun to tell
friends of these.

Sorry Bob. I went to the source, Bergdorf Goodman and the jacket is no longer listed. The link above leads to the proper page, but further searches for "destroyed" jeans, jackets etc don't show either one. And the ones displayed are no worse than any boutique shop might have in stock. For a tenth of the price.
