No matter whether it is for yourself or as a gift when purchasing luxury t-shirts, it is essential to take note of the materials used. Reputable brands use quality fabrics woven carefully, creating lasting designs.
Some shirts with designs by iconic artists can fetch exorbitant prices; for instance, an original Banksy piece can go for millions.

The Hermes Birkin bag is one of the world’s most desirable bags, and for good reason. An iconic piece, it can take you from business meetings to nights out on the town in style. Although Hermes bags may cost more, with proper care, they are highly durable and will likely outlive even their price tags.
Hermes Crocodile leather is a scarce and luxurious material used to craft bags such as the iconic Hermes Kelly. Sourced from Mississippi River alligator farms, its scales feature larger patterns than those found on crocodile skin and come in either matte (porous) or shiny (lisse) finishes for optimal use in bags such as these.
Hermes crocodile leather is not only rare and luxurious; it is also highly sustainable when used in luxury fashion. Their farms have been certified as “sustainable” by the Roundtable on Sustainable Crocodile Products – meaning that their production process does not involve wildlife trafficking or illegal wildlife trade practices.
If you’re considering purchasing a Hermes bag made with crocodile skin, make sure that both its skin condition and hardware are in top shape before making your decision. Hermes bags typically feature saddle-stitched construction, which two apostrophes near their stamp can identify; additionally, gold hardware on Hermes bags typically features brushed rather than polished hardware – another indicator that the bag may be authentic Hermes crocodile leather.

5. Hermes Crocodile
If you want a Hermes Birkin that stands out, nothing beats one crafted from crocodile leather.

Hermes bags with crocodile skin can easily be identified by its signature symbol, which appears next to the Hermes, Made in France stamp on its front flap; Porosus crocodile skin has the caret mark, while Niloticus crocodile skin has two dots (**).
Crocodile leather is harvested from farmed crocodiles raised on Hermes-owned farms in Australia and Southeast Asia. These reptiles are fed fish and other protein-rich meat to encourage their growth before being slaughtered for leather production by Hermes bags crafted with this material; each Hermes bag crafted using this skin requires two or three animals’ lives before production begins; in addition, Hermes also utilizes exotic skins from alligators, lizards, and ostriches – PETA investigators have observed workers at slaughterhouses owned by Hermes restraining animals before electrically stunning them before plucking out and pulling feathers from still-warm bodies before harvesting them for leather production by Hermes workers before finally pulling their feathers off still-warm bodies before pulling feathers off and plowing into production lines by Hermes employees before processing into leather production lines by machines based upon this method of slaughtering animal production lines before finally reaching completion for Hermes products from this source of leather production lineage from.
Hermes’ use of crocodile skins has long been controversial, especially after Jane Birkin’s death.
