Our splurges these days go towards <a title=\"Designer handbags\" href=\"http:\/\/whatshaute.com\/?tag=handbags\" target=\"_blank\">designer handbags<\/a> and fancy <a title=\"Footwear\" href=\"http:\/\/whatshaute.com\/?tag=footwear\" target=\"_blank\">footwear<\/a>. Still, we&#8217;re no strangers to purchasing a haute pair of kicks. But typically a sneaker splurge would range from $100-$200, max. And, they&#8217;d be leather. And, they&#8217;d have to have some bells and whistles &#8211; like an air pump,\u00a0 some crazy sole or <strong>Michael Jordan<\/strong> or <strong>LeBron James<\/strong>&#8216; likeness on them. They wouldn&#8217;t be plain and simple white canvas sneakers. So when we spotted these <a title=\"Gucci white canvas cap toe sneakers\" href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/bghd5cdkge\" target=\"_blank\">Gucci white canvas cap toe sneakers<\/a>, retailing for $556, we couldn&#8217;t help but be confused. They&#8217;re nothing more than basic canvas sneaks with just a sliver of red and green Gucci webbing on the side. Does that alone justify the price tag? Would you buy these Gucci white canvas sneakers &#8211; at any price?
