Finally, a basic gardening tool set for those too haughty and gauche to ever actually garden! Thanks JCrew!

Fantastic!

Says "imported".

I wonder where it's imported from? China? Vietnam?

If it were Italy I'm sure it'd be plastered quite prominently all over the page.

You obviously don't understand the ramifications of "workwear"

This is true on any retail website. "Imported" is synonymous with "made in a sweatshop".

For anyone who's thinking of those tools, just be careful when using them: you may get dirt on them.

Sigh.

Also: If you think these items are ridiculous, clearly you've never been in an Hermes store.

Well, but J.Crew is a strict clothing store. Hermes starts up as a saddle/harness shop, before coming to general leathers and accessories. The clothings are more recent. Furthermore, none of Hermes stuffs is "imported".

They're not. They're under 'Accessories'. The website just indents whatever category in the list that you're viewing.

Oh, duh. That's kind of odd, still.
