I love the item's description:

If i say short, socks, polo, sweathand, Wimbledon ? you respond Thom Browne and you're right... The designer dedicate his collection to the tennis sport, the tennisman new generation is sexy, he wear short, jacket and pullover with the head of racket on tennis court but also in city, he give up sneakers for Church shoes, his look is completed with a bag or better with a briefcase.

Certainly not. I was merely referring to the near preposterous price since they're still a pair of Converse. I too am quite impressed with the overall quality of TB and like his stuff in general, BBBF included.

This is total bullshit pricing and that's coming from someone who owns ultra overpriced designer sneakers. Note that a TB suit at Colette retails for 4800 euros or around that price...

No such thing as bullshit pricing, only idiotic buyers.

colette a saute le requin il y a 7 ans. c'est un enfer sur terre.

That said, I really liked a book they had by a former classmate of mine, so I bought it in the States for half as much.
