Newsflash: the American dollar is worthless. At the rate things are going, we’re going to be wiping our asses with Benjamins in six months. Meanwhile, with the European Union’s currency adding up to over 50% more than America’s, stacking Euros is the new way to ball. Shoot, even Jay-Z was showing off a stack of Euros in the “Blue Magic” video.
So unless you wanna look like a poor American, we suggest you pick up this Martin Margiela Euro Wallet. Inside is a nice leather billfold where you can keep those pesky greenbacks hidden, while the outside is masked by a faux-5 Euro note with a band tied around it. Unfortunately, you’ve gotta spend about $387 (American) at Oki-Ni to get one. Check out other images after the jump.

While we’d never advocate putting an actual gun in your mouth, this sterling silver, 2.25 inch long jammie is an ideal way to not only blaze your favorite tobaccos, but to also serve as a jovial reminder of the ritual nicotine suicide you’re committing every time you light up. On the other hand, it could be an ironic acknowledgment of your vice and a blatant flaunt of your fearlessness. Point the barrel towards your mouth, load up the chamber, and fire up. Of course, it could just make for the fanciest ($80) roach clip ever if you prefer real smokes instead.

Although they might look like props befitting for Mad Max and crew, these are actual products to satisfy the freakiest fetishes for gimps, dommes, and tastemakers alike.
