When a brand is described as “obnoxiously high consumer products,” there should be no surprise when you look at the price tag, as is the case with luxury sneaker brand Buscemi. Constructed of Italian leather and hooked up with 18k Gold plated hardware, these Birkin bag-inspired kicks will run you as much as $865 for a pair.

To give you an idea of how these shoes are made, the brand gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the process, from start to finish. From computer scans to butter soft leathers being cut by lasers, each shoe is put together like a puzzle, and passes through the careful hands of master craftspeople. Careful attention is paid throughout the whole process before it’s packaged in a nice shoebox and covered with that familiar white tissue. Check the video out above to see just why you’re paying mad guap for a pair.
