Home fitness has seen a considerable uptick now that gyms arenโt exactly an option, and letโs face it โ no one actually enjoys going for run. Right? No? Just me? OK thenโฆ In any case, the latest offering on the market are a set of Louis Vuitton dumbbells that cost a staggering โ damn near fiscally irresponsible (but on-brand nonetheless) โ AU$3,600.
While LV hasnโt explicitly stated the target demographic โ apart from a really vague description directing it towards โโฆ those who wish to exercise in style or elevate their home gymโฆโ โ one can only assume these dumbbells are for those who hydrate with US$8,000 Chanel flasks and sweat filtered VOSS Water. You know, the OTT fitness operators.
Emblazoned with the classic LV monogram, the Louis Vuitton dumbbells weigh 3kg each, and come inโฆ an ergonomic dumbbell shape? I donโt know, Iโm just trying to justify the $1,200/kg price tag, which places this set on par with some traded commodities holding intrinsic value. For reference, the average weekly rent in Sydney currently sits at $540 a week.
Though Iโm sure some reasonable and extremely well-adjusted individual will be soundly sold on this entire concept without needing my ham-fisted help.
