A video showcasing the price of a vintage Nike designer sweater, intentionally designed to appear worn and torn, has sparked reactions among netizens. The video was shared online by an individual who visited a clothing store and was taken aback by the price tag affixed to the garment.
In the video, the vintage Nike sweater, deliberately crafted to exude a rugged and aged aesthetic, was listed for sale at a staggering 140 dollars, approximately equivalent to N109,000. The video prompted a tweep to ask netizens if they would be willing to don such attire at such a considerable cost, leading to a range of mixed reactions.
Here are some of the gathered reactions from Twitter:
@Alhajidon inquired, "Are they buying this stuff from mad people or what?"
@Thewickedone_M commented, "Even the look of homelessness is now coming with a high price 😒."
@jelly505 joked, "If the amount I paid for it doesn't show on my head, what's the point?"
@faruqtitola wondered, "Doesn't it even have a smell?"
@henrie089 playfully remarked, "Lol, something that has been in the wardrobe for six years."
@lidocaine expressed his disbelief, saying, "So, I have to pay this much to wear rags? Okay."
The video, which ignited discussions on social media, raises questions about the fashion industry's penchant for offering unconventional and often high-priced items. Check out the video in the tweet below:
