NEW YORK, NY – New York City clothing store Barney's is now selling shoes that come pre-ripped, stained, scoffed and duct-taped.

The "distressed" shoes cost around $600 a pair. The footwear comes in men's and women's sizes, complete with rips, tears, stains and crudely duct-taped holes.

The shoe's creator, high-end clothing brand Golden Goose, says the idea behind the shoe is to create the feel of shoes that have been worn out by prolonged use, to give them a "home" vibe.
