The Hermes Crocodile T-Shirt Costs 3x More Than a Decent Car
Meghan Young — March 28, 2013 — Fashion
Choire Sicha of The Awl has stumbled upon what has to be the most expensive tee in the world: The Hermes Crocodile T-Shirt. Shockingly priced at a whopping $91,500, it goes for three or four times the cost of a decent car, as observed by Sicha. Granted it is made out of authentic crocodile skin, which will of course have PETA readying for yet another battle in the name of animal cruelty.
Selling in the luxury brand's boutiques around the world, the Hermes Crocodile T-Shirt is simple and edgy. Perfect for celebrities looking to make a statement, the tee might be a little heavy and hot for the summer season, but that's why only those who can hire a professional fanner deserves it.
