Patchwork Lounge-Pants, $1,500

So, these denim patchwork drop-rise lounge pants are the “work” of Greg Lauren, either a relative of Ralph or just some blind nutcase who has inexplicably been allowed to design clothing.

Priced at $1,500, this item comes with all the bells and whistles nobody wants on their jeans:  drawstring waist, ribbed knit cuffs, mismatched pockets, a carpenter’s loop, and a crotch that almost hits the knees.

Bingo, right?

Let’s not forget those patches and fake rips.

The rear view is breathtaking. Unless “breathholding” is a word.

They are still available in size 2 at Barneys.

Hurry! I’ll wait while you go order them.

Velvet Patch Jeans $1,008

These patchwork jeans by Kanye-approved label Off-White are not just overpriced bullshit.

They are reinterpreted Levi vintage jeans. So there, you philistine. Here’s what you get for the money:

• Button fly
• Reinforced zipper
• Branded loop pull
• Branded top button closure
• Five-pocket styling
• Velvet and denim patchwork details
• Levi’s branded patch
• Levi’s branded rivets
• Contrast stitching
• Classic fit
• 100% cotton
• Machine wash cool, line dry
• Made in Italy

If you have any friends who are Japanese style leaders or hip-hop stars, you will win their sincerest envy by wearing these jeans. Others will assume you got them at a yard sale or that your mom wore them to a 60’s love-in.

All the work that went into them, just to look like they’re one-of-a-kind! When they’re not!

You could outfit more than 100 people in vintage Levi’s for the same $1,008, by shopping at Goodwill.

But that would be stupid when these stunners might get you a nod from Kanye if he knew you existed.
