Nordstrom Sells Jeans Covered in Fake Mud for $425
Quote:
While distressed jeans with holes and tears have been around for years, Nordstrom has taken the idea further with pre-muddied jeans for $425.
"Heavily distressed medium-blue denim jeans in a comfortable straight-leg fit embody rugged, Americana workwear that's seen some hard-working action with a crackled, caked-on muddy coating that shows you're not afraid to get down and dirty," reads the description on Nordstrom's website.
The pants quickly drew criticism online as people took aim at the concept as well as the hefty price tag. People also questioned who would buy type of product.

By the way, they are currently sold out. But check out that site for more... unique pants for "men".
Mike Rowe from
Dirty Jobs had a few choice words about the item.
“The Barracuda Straight Leg Jeans aren’t pants,”
Rowe said on Facebook. “They’re not even fashion. They’re a costume for wealthy people who see work as ironic — not iconic.”
I just don't get it.
