As it turns out, an almost $1,300 umbrella from Gucci’s upcoming collaboration collection with Adidas isn’t even waterproof and is only for sun protection and decoration (aka flexing). While sun umbrellas are popular in many parts of the world, it’s incredibly hard to justify the price tag given its limited functionality. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola discuss on The Young Turks.

"One of the most-talked about items in the upcoming Adidas x Gucci collaboration is a $1,290 umbrella — and it's not even waterproof.

"Please note, this item is not waterproof and is meant for sun protection or decorative use," according to the product details on its website.

Featuring a G-shaped handle and a print design combining the logos of both brands, the "sun umbrella" has sparked wide debate on social media in China since pictures of it went online last week. The Adidas x Gucci collection is expected to be released on June 7.

Many users were appalled that the item — which retails for an even higher price of 11,100 yuan ($1,600) in China — was not functional despite the high price."
