I'm in the wrong job.  ?55 for a metre of climbing rope with a couple of split rings at each end to stick on a camera: https://leicastore-mayfair.co.uk/collections/straps/products/copy-of-leica-rope-strap-by-cooph-oasis-126cm-ring
Seems you can stick a designer label on anything and then sell it for whatever you want.  Mark up must be amazing, although to be fair they are available in different colours!
If Louis Vuitton start making tackle bags and Jimmy Choo caving wellingtons then the world has truly gone mad.

The heel and grip pattern could be good on a ladder I suppose ... wait ... ?250 ... for some wellies ... arrgh. 

Don't be such a cheapskate, Zombie ? go for the 'Le Chameau Chasseur Leather Lined with Zip'.

A snip at a mere ?340.00.

Not as good a deal as two shirts stuck together for ?935!

Someone at work is selling a pair of Yeezy Beluga V2 trainers for ?250 which he bught for ?165. You'd think that was bad but look what they're selling for on ebay. Still the ugliest shoe in existence.

Those do look nice, but only if the BCA would get one of these to complement them for the 'Cave Monster Reduction Programme'. A snip at $265,000: https://www.hollandandholland.com/all-guns/hshdr01new-holland-holland-royal-deluxe-model-side-side-double-rifle/  Do they also make hand engraved ice axes?!?!
