You might have heard of the hullabaloo surrounding AirPods, with some using the price, S$238, as a tongue-in-cheek symbol of wealth.

Like such.

Well, Louis Vuitton has come up with what appears to be a completely unironic flex, by pushing out their very own wireless earphones.

Costs a Vuit-ton

A single wireless earphone will set you back S$1,580.

Not all earphone designs are available at every store in Singapore though, so you might want to call in and check first.

If you find the design familiar, it's because the entire thing is a collaboration between high-end earphone brand Master & Dynamic, which came out in 2018.

The original Master & Dynamic earphones came in at a relatively more affordable, but empirically expensive, US$299 (S$405).

Oof.
