In Los Angeles, the price of things doesn’t always make sense. It doesn’t have to. As long as someone is willing to pay $15 for a juice or $120 million for a Fantastic Four reboot, life there is just fine. We mention this only as a way to help explain the existence of these $1,450 snakeskin boxing gloves from LA-based Elisabeth Weinstock, a designer specializing in exotic animal skins. Although you probably shouldn’t actually punch anyone with these gloves, they are available in hot pink, which may count for something.
