So, you’re thinking about Hermès pool slides, huh? Right, right. Let’s be real, we’re not *actually* talking about just any old pool slide. We’re talking *Hermès*. That little orange box magic. The kind of thing that screams “I *maybe* have my life together” even if you’re just rocking them to grab a coffee after a workout (which, let’s face it, is probs more likely than actually lounging poolside, ha!).
I saw something about Nordstrom having pool slides and flip-flops. Birkenstocks. Tory Burch. Totally different ballgame. Those are great for, you know, *actually* going to the pool and not worrying about getting a single drop of water on ’em. Hermès? You might side-eye that splash a little. I mean, come on.
And then there’s StockX. The whole buying-and-selling-at-market-prices thing? It’s kinda fascinating, really. Like, are these shoes investments now? Are we trading pool slides like they’re the next big thing in crypto? Honestly, I don’t entirely get it, but hey, if you can snag a deal and rock some swanky slides, more power to ya.
But let’s get real for a sec. I saw the “Chypre sandal $1,000” line. A *thousand* dollars for *pool slides*?! Okay, okay, I know they’re Hermès, and I know they’re probably made of angel whispers and unicorn leather (or, more likely, really nice leather), but still. A grand? For something that’s supposed to be worn *near water*? That’s… a choice. A bold choice, if you ask me. I mean, you could buy a *really* nice vacation for that price. Or, like, a whole lot of other shoes that you wouldn’t be terrified of getting wet.
I saw someone mentioned “feine und elegante Schuhe für Damen” which is just… *chef’s kiss* perfection. ‘Cause, yeah, they are elegant. But they’re also… pool slides. The cognitive dissonance is real.
