We each make a cost/value/craftsmanship/utility decision from the perspective of our own means and experience.
There are items that we cannot afford.
And there are some that we might afford but will not choose.
At the far end of those judgments is a line that is “beyond the pale” (if you will excuse the expression).

The price of those shoes crosses that line for me.
