Proof positive that too many people have way too much money:
Gucci selling $870 sneakers designed to look dirty

Luxury brand Gucci is making waves online with an $870 pair of “distressed” sneakers designed to look like they are already dirty.

The Screener sneakers, available on Gucci’s website, have been “treated for an allover distressed effect.”

The company offers special instructions for cleaning real dirt off the shoes, which were inspired by 1970s basketball shoes, without harming the faux-dirt.

I have a better idea: Get an entry level job at a fast-food place. They will get your shoes dirty in no time, and not only will they not charge you, they will actually pay you instead (though not much).
