Default Muddy jeans

Saw this in the news just now.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39714301

WTF? £330...for jeans...with mud on them.

I get that 425 dollaaahhh for designer jeans isn't that unsual, but pre-caked in mud? Bit like the spray on mud for city 4x4's I saw for sale in an awfully posh shop once upon a time.

I could understand this if the jeans were worn by Neil Armstrong and he'd rolled around on the moon in them

Jeans with knee windows - what on earth!!!!

As for wearing a pair of jeans that make you look as though you have shat yourself - nah, I'll give that a miss.

This is an amazing development, as far as I'm concerned!

No longer do I have to feel embarrassed about my oily clothes that make me look like a hill billy, because it's Haute Coutoure, don't you know?

Might stick a pair on ebay and see if I can sell them.

Just goes to show the old adage about money not buying common sense still holds as true now as it ever did. For that price, I'd want a pair of trousers to be flame-proof, make me my tea, and give me a soothing rub-down when they've finished
