As they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

But we're not sure if this leather bin bag by Spanish brand BIIS is either.

The bag, which retails for up to $423 (€360), is made of real Spanish leather and according to the website, "looks like a real plastic trash bag."

Who'd even buy such a bag you ask? Well, the smallest bag is currently out of stock. Though we're not sure how many they stocked to begin with.

Some people had a lot of feelings about it:

Let 2017 be known as the year fashion became trash.
