Are they mad or something . $1,850

If we can pay good money for a useless shiny rock that has no intrinsic value (e.g. a diamond), then we can pay for destroyed sneakers.

Diamonds are valuable only because we've bought into the scam that they are valuable. Beyond being used as a cutting tool, a diamond has no intrinsic value.

According to Nicky Oppenheimer, former chairman of the De Beers Group, “Diamonds are intrinsically worthless, except for the deep psychological need they fill.” David Prager, also of De Beers, explained the diamond paradox in greater detail: "The truth is nobody needs a diamond".

Dope

First thought was who is this mad man

Popular designer brands try to test their popularity. They push the limits to know how much of foolish and blind loyalty they have.
This is pure trash and shouldn't even be accepted by any right thinking person but of course, we hardly have sane people anymore.

Looks cool

Please you guys should help a brother. I'm really starving right now. I'm a salary worker and I'm currently penniless. Please I got siblings to look after as well. I've never begged in this platform. I've been on nairaland for over 3 years. Please help a struggling brother. I promise to pay it forward if I could to the less needy. God bless.

Make anything ... advertise it ... put a ridiculous price ... make it exclusive ... people will buy... if for bragging rights only. Don't be surprised to see your Pastor proudly wearing a pair ... special footwear for special people. This is no different from people who bought the useless Hummer .... or those who buy the most expensive coffee in the world ... USD35 to $100 per cup.
