Russian President Vladimir Putin has made one small misstep in his efforts to show regular Russians how vital and relatable he is.
In a bizarre photo shoot set in the gym of the state residence in Sochi, Russia, Putin pumped iron alongside Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. The sweat pans he was wearing while doing so retail for $1,425 a pair, according to Quartz.
The pants are made by Italian luxury designer Loro Piana, which specializes in wool and cashmere products. The "Portland" joggers are made of 50% silk and 50% cashmere.
Putin also has the matching Loro Piana jacket, which brings his outfit total to at least $3,200, not including the T-shirt and shoes.
