Yes. You read correctly. Chipkos, an L.A.-based footwear brand, just debuted a flip-flop collab with artist David Palmer. These flip flops are retailing for the price of a Honda Civic $18,000. Granted each pair sold will also buy 100,000 square feet of Costa Rican rainforest, an introduction to Palmer, a night at the LEED-certified Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills, and complimentary piece of Palmer’s reclaimed wood and glass artwork. Would you break off $18K for art flip flops?
