The holes in the Major League Baseball Off-White/New Era jerseys are being popularized as "meteor holes." The concept was first introduced by Virgil Abloh, the late founder of Off-White on handbags, in 2019. They were next featured in the menswear and womenswear collection in 2020.

Fans react on Twitter after seeing the MLB jerseys worth $1,030
After seeing the costs of MLB Off-White/New Era, caps, hoodies, and t-shirts, fans were taken aback.
Trevor Thomas commented on whether it really costs $1,030 or is one of the zeros a hole? Hahaha...Hilarious!
@JomboyMedia Is it really $1,030 or is one of those zeros just another hole? So they are like $130 or $103??
The First Targaryen said that people need to quit thinking this is fashion. He adds fans should cut their own clothes up with scissors instead of purchasing these jerseys.
@JomboyMedia Nahh holes in the hat is where I draw the line. Ppl gotta stop considering this fashion lol use some scissors on your clothing and call it a day
Wody Wellinger's Burner has some strong opinions. He feels every MLB collaboration is a terrible flop.
@JomboyMedia how is every MLB collab complete garbage https://t.co/RK2Dp9tl3d
Voodew Vigilante feels the expensive jerseys with holes appear to have been battled over by a hobo and cannot be more than two dollars.
@drinkwaterty @JomboyMedia they look like someone fought a hobo for it. worth like 2 bucks lmao
Jim Hellmann said Major League Baseball is so broke it has to offer factory-samples.
@JomboyMedia MLB is so strapped for money that it's selling factory sampled fabric jerseys? This is like the taco bell meat of jerseys Grade X (but edible).
Justin rightly pointed out how people can spend a few hundred dollars on a standard jersey and cut it up.
@JomboyMedia Why not buy a regular jersey for a couple hundred and take scissors to it? Seems like overpriced pandering to me
Someone will buy it merely to be able to brag about wearing a $1,000 jersey, according to Xabraz.
@JomboyMedia They COST $1030. They certainly aren't WORTH that much. But someone will buy it just so they can say they're wearing a $1000 jersey. https://t.co/Eg4XRL6fb2
Only time and purchasing statistics will reveal how the limited edition jerseys will do in the market. Until then, sit back and enjoy the creative remarks on social media.
