Eton 80th Anniversary Dress Shirt

Price: $45,000

For their 80th anniversary, Eton created a shirt that merked the competition in terms of opulence. Using only the finest Egyptian cotton that would even satisfy French Montana, the Swedish company released an ornate dress shirt with diamond-encrusted cuff links to celebrate its entry into the octogenarian club. If you ever see any 80 year old seen rocking this jawn, you automatically kiss the ring, knowing that he's lived a life of prosperity and bounty.

Nike Foamposite Galaxy

Price: $99,100

Yes, someone paid close to six figures for a pair of Foamposite Galaxy's. The original suggested retail price of the shoes was $220, meaning the eBay mogul who sold these (assuming the transaction went through) caked 45,045% on their initial investment. It doesn't even matter if the seller was a 13 year old Midwest hypebeast or any other type of fuckboy; that is a BOSS move. Instant tycoon status.

The Satya Paul Design Studio Necktie

Price: $220,000

At a 2003 fashion show in Mumbai, India, the Satya Paul Design Studio unveiled a pure silk tie with a pattern made of 150 grams of gold and 271 diamonds. Modeled by Bollywood star Salman Khan, the tie was made for the Suashish Diamond Group, intended strictly for luxe neckwear aficionados to floss in the board room.

Datta Phuge's Custom Gold Shirt

Price: $235,000

There's one master reason above all why stylish dudes want to flex in exorbitant gear, and Datta Phuge of Pune, India, knows how the game works. On the subject of his shirt/Trinidad Jame$' wet dream, the millionaire money lender explained that, "I know I am not the best looking man in the world, but surely no woman could fail to be dazzled by this shirt?"

The solid gold shirt took 15 goldsmiths two weeks of working around the clock to finish, and there was enough gold leftover from the seven pound piece to make matching cuffs and rings. They say you can't put a price on love, but Phuge believes that over a quarter of a million bucks must do the trick.

Republica Fashion's Gucci 30 Carat Diamond Belt

Price: $249,000

Pants full of swoll racks are going to require a serious belt to hold up. This custom-made piece clocked in at a quarter million dollars and was the product of a collaboration between Stuart Hughes and Goldstriker International. What started out as a Gucci belt was given a platinum buckle and 30 carats of diamonds featured along one of the G's. The end result is the most expensive belt in the world, and a reminder that any accessory can get turnt to ultimate levels of luxury.

Dussault Apparel Thrashed Denim Line

Price: $250,000

Dussault Apparel blew the competition out of the water with their Thrashed Denim Line that clocked in at a quarter million dollars. Yes, they're hideous, but each pair includes 16 one carat rubies, 25 half-carat rubies, 8 half-carat diamonds, and 1,080 grams of 18k white or rose gold. And lots of skulls.

The hand-made process involves washing the jeans 13 times while dying and painting the pants between each wash. Dussault Apparel proves once again that, if the price is big enough to stomp on all serfs, stuntin' doesn't necessarily have to look good.

Dolce & Gabbana Gold and Diamond Sunglasses

Price: $383,609

What better way to block the shine emanating from all the diamonds and shiny things around you than with a pair of shades that are encrusted with even more diamonds. These may not be the best-looking sunglasses out there, but the price tag of these Dolce & Gabbana shades will block the stares of all haters/peons who are butthurt from being stunted on so hard.

The R. Jewels Diamond Edition Suit

Price: $905,000

A few steps up from your basic J. Crew Ludlow suit, Stuart Hughes and tailor Richard Jewels partnered to produce three of these suits that come in at just under a million. The cashmere wool and silk blended fabric is studded with 480 diamonds, and each suit takes 600 hours to complete.

If the exclusivity and extravagance of this suit doesn't entice you, then Hughes and Jewels also offer an all-expenses paid trip to St. Lucia for any buyer. Go ahead and cop if you feel like you deserve a vacay.

Mike Jones' Ice Age Chain

Price: $1,000,000

Back when Mike Jones was a thing that existed in pop culture, he went and purchased himself a one million dollar chain that shat on anyone else who even considered copping some jewelry. This piece was so ridiculous that it even had Ben Baller going nuts. Fully flooded with diamonds, there's no telling how many actual stones adorn this veritable iceberg. Even if Mike Jones' time has come and gone, his $1 million worth of diamonds are forever. Or pawned off.

Patek Phillipe Henry Graves Supercomplication Pocket Watch

Price: $11,000,000

Back in 1933, Patek Philippe himself took five years to build this timepiece for the banker the pocket watch is named after. It featured a chart of the nighttime sky over NYC, and chimes that played the same melody as Big Ben. The watch sold for a cool 11 mill in 1999 to an anonymous auction winner. It's official: eating gold-leaf sandwiches and hunting the most dangerous game of all (man) are no longer the top signs of the uber-wealthy. That designation belongs to anonymously copping $11 million watches.
