Putin shows off yet more designer wear: After outrage over Russian President's £10,000 jacket, high-fashion leader is also spotted wearing £8,800 watch and £605 trainers

While Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has become famous for his khaki green T-shirt, his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin chose a £10,000 Loro Piana jacket for his appearance at a stadium rally last week.

With Russia feeling the impact of sanctions, it is unclear which of Putin's aides thought it wise for him to don a coat costing 25 times the nation's average monthly wage.

Putin, who teamed the puffer jacket with a £2,400 roll-neck sweater by Italian brand Kiton, told 200,000 people inside Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium that his invasion of Ukraine was to defend the 'universal values' of all Russians.

The high-fashion leader is also a fan of a £8,800 black Blancpain Grande Date Aqua Lung watch, and has been spotted in a £605 pair of Loro Piana suede trim sneakers.

One critic wrote on Twitter: 'While Russian people are fighting for food in stores, Putin addressed Russians wearing a Loro Piana jacket worth 1.5million roubles.'

Putin's physique looked bulky during the speech, sparking speculation he was wearing a bullet-proof jacket under the coat. There were also claims that much of the crowd were paid or coerced to be there.

Yep, that's what happens when you illegally invade a sovereign neighboring country.

No. That's what happens when you follow the MSM.

I meant a major threat to the US. The biggest threat is the Globalists, then China.

That the man is a committed nationalist (the horror!!) never seems to occur to urinalysts.

We may not approve of his choices, but then we do not have his perspectives.

Yep. Isn’t it amazing how the Hillary criminal cartel can make up an accusation with absolutely zero evidence and that gets a special investigative counsel that for 3 years destroyed lives, cost taxpayers millions, interfered with the duties of a duly elected President, divided the nation, yet here we have a laptop with evidence, even a witness who came forth confirming it, and not even a parking ticket!! Even when Biden is razing the country to the ground, NOTHING.

Today I was laughing reading this article....

“Republicans demand new probe into Hunter Biden laptop, coverup”

The COVERUP, not what’s actually IN the laptop, nooo...We don’t want to investigate that. We want to just yell at the people who said it was Russian disinformation. Oooooo I bet Biden is scared!

IOWs the GOPe version of a HB laptop coverup using the cover of investigating the coverup.

Seen that sad charade a few times.

Gaddafi really did have a harem of concubines, and so did his sons. Lots of stories of all that going back decades before his, er, removal. Back then he would travel to Europe with some of his entourage, showing off his stuff.

He did a lot of evil in the world, financing rebels and terrorists in SE Asia for one thing, including the Philippine Abu Sayyaf and others. His end was well deserved.

If only Bush, Obama, and Biden would get the end they deserve. The most evil never do.

The people he is beating up on are also nationalists, as are all the various peoples in E.Europe. The only reason Putin and HIS nationalists matter is because of what he’s doing, not who or what he is.
