The nonsensical items being advertised by high end stores are in full entertainment mode again. This time, Saks Fifth Avenue is offering up the insanity.
Today’s frivolous Facebook ad was for “Moose Knuckles x
Telfar Unisex Nylon Pants.” This comical design confection is presented by
Moose Knuckles, the “Canadian-based outerwear brand” that makes clothing for
extreme temperatures and is “celebrated for their edgy appeal.” The pants advertised were made in white and black with coordinating parkas, and feature three rings of what I assumed were faux fur, but product details
revealed it to be natural blue fox fur from Finland. I mourn for the foxes.

The cost is a modest $750, so it’s rather shocking they weren’t seen in the lift lines at Wachusett and Nashoba Valley, as well as the snowy streets and driveways of Lowell, Fitchburg, and Worcester this most recent winter. There is always next season, I suppose. Of course, by then, everyone will know they were last season’s pants and the wearer may be subject to ridicule and finger pointing. That is likely to happen anyway, because these pants are just silly. If not for the cost, they might make an amusing clown costume for next Halloween.
