Life has become quite expensive, and when we say life we’re not just talking about the basic needs of food and etc. Clothing is becoming more fashionable and fashion comes with a price.
Yeezy Boost sneakers go for almost R1 800.00, for just a pair of sneakers.
Now a number of us really like the Boss Zonke vest but, the price on it fam. It’s got a lot of people thinking twice about purchasing it.
Tweet was abuzz last night after Riky Rick released a batch of 200 Boss Zonke vests, almost everyone was complaining about how expensive the vest is and questioning why they should pay R700.00 for it.
Taking to Twitter in a series of Tweets the rapper shares that his vest only cost that much because he makes them for almost R400.00 and he loses R100.00 when he sells them for R700.00.
“People that want the Boss Zonke vest buy it. People that don’t want it or can’t afford it don’t buy it,” he writes.
Ok Listen…
Okay lemmi, say this nice. The R700 vest twitter is complaining about has been selling for that price for over a year. Its always sold out.

For The Real Niggaz…
I didn’t make that Vest for every Tom, Dick and Thando. I drop 200 at a time for the real niggaz, its not mass produced and it sells out.

Support Local…
It costs me close to R400 to make that vest because Ive decided to produced my clothing locally and support our industry in hard times.

That Sneaker Fam…
You guys are out here making jokes about me while you are getting truly ripped of by big brands that make a shoe for R80 and sell for R1800.

I’m Losing Money…
So basically. Cost Price: R400 -> Retail Price: R700 -> profit: R300… That mean Im losing R100 everytime I order another batch.?
