Gucci Trolled for Selling Dirty Sneaker
Feb 21, 2019
Fashion brand Gucci was recently trolled for a “racist blackface sweater” and now the company is being slammed for a pair of shoes titled “dirty” trainers. The product is described as “‘A pastiche of different influences that span across decades’ and ‘materials inspired by vintage sportswear’, the sneakers are priced at £ 615. The shoe features Gucci’s vintage logo, but what caught people’s attention is the distressed effect. People started trolling the company for making dirty sneakers that are so expensive.
Some people were shocked while others were fast to mock the brand for catering to rich people.
What do you make of these "dirty" trainers Gucci are selling for a mere £615? Bargain, right?! ???? #jeremyvine pic.twitter.com/ONqNUxgl7T

I’m sure these fashion designers do ridiculously styled things for publicity. Anyone stupid enough to buy them needs to seek out a good Psychologist.

The already-dirty sneaker, brought to you by #Gucci. For those who work too much and don't have time to dirty up their kicks. ????

If these were purchased from Aldi, they’d be tacky but of course because they have a Gucci logo on them they’ll be called ‘fashionable’ they are horrible.
