Reptilian-themed items have been around fashion and pop culture for years. The crocodile-clad pieces are classic, timeless and are sure to never go out of style. Gator-clad fashion and tech accessories, snake skin guitars and even deep-fried turtles are just some of the examples of the reptilian impact on popular culture.
Reptile-made couture is available to few due to its high quality and high-cost nature. The delicate luxury pieces have always been a fashion staple for the rich and influential, representing status and wealth.
Scale-textured pieces are available in many forms, each more extreme and more luxurious than the last. Items like snakeskin guitars, $40,000 crocodile-clad handbags and a $50,000 croc umbrella prove the multitude of funds needed in order to own any of these items. Despite of this, the reptilian market never ceases to boom with committed customers who will pay the price of luxury.
