If the fake mud is high quality and doesn't just flake off...
This is much like the relic electric guitar market. Fender Custom Shop sells guitars for a premium that look like they've been dragged behind a truck (distressed nitrocellulose finishes, scratches, dings, hardware patina, sanded necks, &c.)
or White Nike AF1s. People are obsessed with keeping theirs looking perfectly new. Dr Dre famously claims to never wear a pair more than once.
The other day I saw Nike started selling dirty looking ones new. There truly is something for everyone!
Wasn't this the whole designer ripped jeans of the 90s?

You mean the late 20-teens? They are being sold now...
Will they?

> Nordstrom is selling “mud-stained” jeans to the tune of $425. They’re called the “Barracuda Straight Leg Jeans” and come with some sort of fake mud substance caked all over them. (It’s not clear what that substance is.) The knees, pockets and crotch of the jeans appear bear most of the faux brown muck.
