Kim Kardashian is facing backlash online after listing a pair of secondhand jeans for an eye-popping $65,000 on Kardashian Kloset, the luxury resale platform featuring pre-owned items from the Kardashian-Jenner family. The 45-year-old reality star put up a size 32 pair from the coveted Chrome Hearts x Levi’s collection, known for its handcrafted leather cross patches and limited availability.
While these jeans typically fetch several thousand dollars due to their rarity and demand, fans were taken aback by Kardashian’s steep asking price. Social media users quickly took to Reddit to express their disapproval.
One commenter criticized the family’s approach, saying, “They no doubt get all these items free or heavily discounted and then have the gall to sell these on, they really are so tacky and greedy.” Another user pointed out, “Isn’t she a millionaire?”
Meanwhile, a third added, “The Kardashian Kloset disgusts me. God forbid they donate those clothes or some of their absurd income to people in need.
They’re already insanely wealthy, but no, they have to sell their used stuff for even more money.”
Some fans responded with humor, joking, “Yes I’m going to wear the $65K jeans to the BBQ.”
This isn’t the first time the Kardashians have drawn criticism. Earlier this month, Khloe and Kim found themselves at the center of controversy during the Monaco Grand Prix when their security team reportedly pushed British comedian Michael McIntyre aside while he was being interviewed. The comedian joked about the incident, describing it as being caught in a “Kardashian wave” that left him sore.
On a more personal note, Kim recently confirmed her romance with British racing driver Lewis Hamilton via a social media selfie. The pair have reportedly known each other since 2014, and rumors of their relationship surfaced earlier this year.
