Fashion giant Gucci has released a virtual pair of shoes, the Gucci Virtual 25 sneaker, for use in apps like Roblox or VRChat. They are available for purchase on the Gucci app.
There are two versions available the high-end pair costs $12.99 (N5000) and the cheaper pair costs $8.99 (N3500).
The sneakers were designed by Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele and are loud enough to be stand out and over the top, something people are unlikely to wear in real life according to The Verge.

In another report, Legit.ng reported that Nigerian music star David Adeleke aka Davido made the list of celebrities who have no problem spending fortunes on designers.
Even though the DMW boss is mostly known to flaunt his super-expensive jewellery pieces, Davido also has an eye for luxury fashion pieces from topmost designers.
In a photo posted on his Instagram story channel, the Jowo crooner was dripped in an up and down fit from the luxury Louis Vuitton brand.
Although the outfit seemed casual at first glance, a search on the website of the fashion brand shows that the singer was rocking a piece expensive enough to buy a car.
