If you told me your shoes were $50,000 and didn’t follow that with “they also suck your dick” I’d think you were just a moron, not super cool and worthy of emulation.
I don’t think it’s really about the shoes as it is saying “I’ve got so much money I can overpay this much on shoes and still make it to this dinner party instead of spending my time wondering how I’ll eat or make rent”. Maybe combined with a curiosity about what kind of shoes 50k will get you.
I don’t even know why anyone is impressed by it.
