Hey, listen. This bit of wisdom could come in handy right now. If you ever think that your shoes or clothes have worn out, please don’t throw them away. ‘Cos you never know when some high-end labels may proclaim them the season’s fashion.
We aren’t kidding. Given the ongoing trend, the piece of clothing that’s rotting in your wardrobe is being offered by a premium brand at ridiculously high prices. We have proof that we’re being casually trolled by them.
