Arguably, the worst part about buying new sneakers is that everyone around you knows they’re new.

Now, thanks to Gucci’s latest release, you can buy dirty old sneakers for $1,100. Yep, they’re designed to look dirty, it’s called fashion.

The ‘distressed leather sneaker’ arrives in three dirty colourways, complete with a Gucci tongue patch and branded heel. To replicate years of wear, the ’70s-style trainers are treated with a vintage wash.

While you could technically buy your own pair of perfectly clean Gucci sneakers and wear them down yourself, that would defeat the purpose.
