Balenciaga’s torn jacket sells out in minutes

“It’s fashion, not poverty,” say buyers as air enters through their holes.

Patched District.– Balenciaga did it again. The brand launched a completely torn jacket on sale (we were going to say “jacket”, but for reasons of linguistic security, we preferred not to), and the worst of all is that it sold out in less than 24 hours.

The… chambrita, which was sold for 940 dollars (between 18 and 21 thousand pesos, depending on the whims of the exchange market), had the particularity of having holes in the sleeves, side pockets and collar, offering that appearance of “old clothes” that, for some reason, causes fascination among consumers with excess credit and a deficit of common sense.

Even if you don’t believe it…
Balenciaga’s DESTROYED jacket—torn, faded, and sold for $950—sold out in 24 hours.

Ridiculous, yes. But financially brilliant: sell scarcity, not fabric.

As we said, the product sold out in less than a day, confirming once again that human evolution has not stopped moving forward… but backwards.

Balenciaga takes a shot at the brainy market

The Spanish brand has established itself by launching clothing and footwear that seem to have been rescued from a post-apocalyptic flea market, which is highly appreciated by fashion lovers who confuse modern art with urban abandonment.

Balenciaga has not specified if the jacket will be available again, although it is rumored that it plans to release a “more humble” version, with patches and the smell of suavitel, limited edition for Latin America.

Meanwhile, buyers who couldn’t afford theirs can find products of the same quality in any market in the country, and even spend less, as long as they manage to convince their grandmother that torn clothes are already a trend and not carelessness.

And to be up to date: the official who was exposed on Franco Escamilla’s show for not doing anything at work, has already come out to “clarify” the situation.
