How much would you be willing to pay for some cool, official merch of your favorite game? If your favorite game isElden Ringand your answer was £1,400 (about $1,700), then you’re in luck, because that’s how much the most expensive item from the newARK/8 xElden Ringcollectioncosts.
ARK/8 is a luxury streetwear brand, and its latest collection features severalElden Ring-inspired pieces of clothing, ranging from shirts, sweaters, hoodies, and more. They all look undeniably cool - the bomber jacket, for example, is completely covered in the map of the Lands Between, while an enormous, fluffy, faux fur coat features the same print on the lining, and a patch on the back embossed with the Great Runes.

Most of the items don’t really scream ‘Elden Ring’, either - the designs are quite subtle. In aninterview with NME, creative director Dimitri van Eetvelde explained that this was a purposeful decision, as the company doesn’t “want to cater only to hardcore [gaming] fans”.
“We really want more of the mainstream to think ‘Oh, I love that jacket’ – theElden Ringjacket, for example, they could totally love it from a visual standpoint and buy it without realizing it’s anElden Ringpiece,” van Eetvelde told NME.
However, as mentioned at the top, none of these items come cheap. The aforementioned faux fur coat is the most expensive of the bunch, at £1,400 (roughly $1,697), while the bomber jacket is £875 (around $1,061). Even the cheapest item - a black t-shirt with anElden Ringboss door printed on the back of it - isn’t exactly kind on wallets, coming in at £100 (about $121).
Even so, these items are all available to buy and pre-order now if you really want to kit yourself out. I think I’m just going to stick to waiting for theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC, though.
