Would you spend R7579.37 on these jeans?

If you'd like to set a new fashion trend in your neighbourhood - or get expelled/fired/ogled - then these jeans are for you (or not).

As seen on FORWARD by Elyse Walker's website, French brand Y/PROJECT recently released a unique pair of pants for those who want to expose their bottoms! Yes, you read that right. Jeans for those who just want to get a little more air up there.

Called the "Detachable Button Down Pants", these trousers feature a denim waist belt with suspenders holding up the pants section. Basically, they're blue jeans with no ass.

The site describes the jeans as:

Self & Lining: 100% cotton
Made in Tunisia
Machine wash
Hidden button front closures
Adjustable straps with metal ring accents
Button closures along bottom

And the price? $600 (for us locals that is R7579.37 at the moment). Madness!

These are not the only strange jeans to make their way out of the dark corner of a designer's mind. In April, Nordstrom released jeans covered in mud.

And then we have these...

While we are still trying to get over the shock of paying a hefty price for a few pieces of denim stitched together, how many of you remember the Spin Jeans? A multi-coloured splatter pattern covered every square inch of a pair of iconic Levi's denim. They cost $27,000! Even Kanye West would be a little shocked, we think...
