Arnold Putra and his avant-garde brand of menswear has just announced an absolutely ludicrous product and we are still trying to wrap our heads around the logistics of this bag… as well as the ethics.
So we wish we were joking, but right below this, you are looking at the “ethically sourced” human child spine and alligator tongue bag from Arnold Putra and his avant-garde fashion label.
First of all, what the hell, and secondly, how do you ethically source a mass amount of children’s spines?
Here is the official description for the item.
The ARNOLD PUTRA alligator tongue and human spine bag has been ethically sourced and crafted in a multiple panel construction. With an emphasis on protruding scar stitching lacing the outer construction of the bag, each wearer is encouraged to sculpt a form of his/her own sentiment. The unique silhouette is complimented by the human spine handle and raw edge finishes. Technical in design and construction, this one off bag is an ideal statement piece.
Each piece of Arnold Putra is meticulously hand crafted in their atelier upon order, limited in availability and may take up to 14 days to arrive during busy periods.

This is the absolutely bonkers work of avant-garde fashion designer Arnold Putra, and it is no joke, officially claiming to be made with an ethically-sourced human child spine and alligator tongue leather. Unfortunately, it’s been memory-holed since Twitter found it. Fortunately, the memory holers always forget about the Bing Cache.
After some Twitter digging, some people have discovered that Arnold makes it a habit of his to visit indigenous tribes and collect the bones of their children. I wish I was joking, but alas.
