First Lady Rachel Ruto was spotted wearing a Bally OBrien Classic Heel, priced at 589 Euros (approximately KSh 79,992) during the Dutch King and Queen visit to State House.
The elegant shoe features a suede finish and a mid-height block heel, offering both stability and comfort. Its luxurious design has sparked widespread discussion, with many Kenyans reacting to the high cost of the footwear.
This is not the first time the first family has been spotted wearing expensive apparel.
In June 2024, President William Ruto was rocking a pair of Zegna sneakers worth Ksh 150,000, even as he continues to plead with Kenyans to take austerity measures.
And again while in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, for the World Government Summit the head of state was spotted wearing a pair of sophisticated Oxford shoes while meeting President Paul Kagame.
Crafted in Havane brown patinated calf leather by Maison Christian Louboutin, the shoe is worth KSh182,627.
