It's official - we're never gonna understand high fashion.

Italian luxury brand Gucci recently unveiled their latest collection of dandy suits and fancy bags paired with some reeeally familiar-looking sneakers

Apparently, chunky scuffed sneakers "coated" with grime and/or scribbles are in this season. Just ask Balenciaga and Vetements.

According to its official online store, Gucci's men's sneakers are priced from USD560 (RM2,389.24) to USD1,100 (RM4,693.15).
