Justin Bieber's SKYLRK: Fans Fume Over 'Ridiculous' Prices for Basic Designs

Justin Bieber's Fans Left Fuming Over Ridiculously Priced Clothing Line, SKYLRK

The wait is finally over for Justin Bieber's highly-anticipated clothing line, SKYLRK! But unfortunately, the excitement was short-lived as fans took to social media to express their outrage over the ridiculously high prices of the new collection.

As the singer, 31, launched his streetwear brand on Thursday, eager fans flocked to the website to get a glimpse of what he had in store. However, what they got was a shockingly expensive collection that left many questioning whether the price tag was worth it.

The SKYLRK website is currently selling a range of essential basics like oversized hoodies and tank tops, beanies, slide sandals, and sunglasses, with prices ranging from $40 to a whopping $200. Yes, you read that right - a pair of sunglasses for $200!

Potential customers flooded the SKYLRK Instagram page with comments slamming Bieber for not considering what "regular, working people" can afford. One fan penned: "Price is ridiculous for a plain style, not worth it." Another added: "Bieber I love you but the price is crazy!"

Fans were quick to point out that the prices are significantly higher than those of his previous clothing line, Drew House, which ranged from $48 to $148. Some even went as far as to speculate that SKYLRK is just a rebranded version of Drew House with higher prices.

However, not everyone was convinced that SKYLRK is meant to be an affordable brand. One fan defended the singer, saying: "This is not merch. If you are concerned about the pricing it's not for you."

Justin has yet to comment publicly on the backlash, but his silence only fueled the fire as fans continued to express their outrage and disappointment.

But wait, there's more! The SKYLRK launch came just days after Bieber surprised fans by releasing his long-awaited seventh studio album, Swag. Yes, you read that right - an album with 21 songs, featuring guest vocals from Gunna and Cash Cobain, as well as a particularly raunchy verse from the rapper Sexyy Red.

The album's release was preceded by a series of cryptic lyrics, including Walking Away, which seems to allude to his reported marriage problems with wife Hailey Bieber. One track, Therapy Session, was nothing but a skit between Bieber and the actor and comedian Druski in which they appeared to defend his mental health and recent bizarre social media meltdowns against fans claiming that "he's f*in' losin' his mind."

Justin's Marriage Troubles?

Hailey showed support for Swag on Thursday while also hitting out at "losers" who've speculated about their marriage over the last several months. The Rhode founder re-posted a photo of Justin's massive Swag billboard in NYC's Times Square to her Instagram Story with the caption: "Is it finally clocking to you f*ing losers?"

It seems like Hailey is calling out those who have been spreading rumors about their marriage, saying that Justin's recent behavior has nothing to do with any marriage troubles but rather due to him being hard at work on his long-awaited music.

Justin's Net Worth: A Whopping $300 Million!

But what's behind the high prices of SKYLRK? Well, it seems like Justin is worth a whopping $300 million, making him one of the most successful recording artists in history. And with an estimated net worth of that magnitude, it's no wonder he can afford to charge top dollar for his clothing line.

The End of an Era: Drew House

As Bieber launched SKYLRK, fans were left wondering what happened to his previous streetwear brand, Drew House. It seems like the singer has severed ties with the brand, which he co-founded in 2018 with ex-friend Ryan Good back in April.

Justin's Music Catalog Sold for $200 Million!

But wait, there's more! In January 2023, Bieber sold his entire music catalog - featuring songs from his entire 15-year recording career - for a whopping $200 million. His music was to Blackstone-backed Hipgnosis Songs Capital for over $200 million the company announced at the time.

Justin's Health Scare: Ramsay Hunt Syndrome

As fans continued to express their outrage and disappointment, it's easy to forget that Justin has been dealing with some serious health issues lately. In February 2023, Bieber officially canceled the remainder of his Justice World Tour after he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which can lead to facial paralysis.

Justin's Personal Life: A Rollercoaster Ride

It's been a rollercoaster ride for Justin Bieber in recent years. From canceling his tour due to health issues to selling his music catalog and launching a new clothing line, it seems like the singer has been keeping busy. And with an estimated net worth of $300 million, he certainly has the means to do so.

The Verdict: Is SKYLRK Worth It?

So, is SKYLRK worth the hefty price tag? Only time will tell. But one thing's for sure - Justin Bieber's fans are talking, and they're not happy about it. Will you be joining the chorus of outrage or will you take a chance on SKYLRK? Let us know in the comments below!
