Okay, “for the price of this coffee sleeve, you could purchase more than 40 lattes.” But if you happen to need a gift “for that hard-to-shop-for member of the 1 percent,” the Rika coffee sleeve from Jimmy Choo might save the day. Available in bright orange or fuchsia, it bears the Choo name on a little metal button. At the price advertised, this over-the-top accessory may appear wasteful. Look at the Rika this way, though: Since it’s reusable, it could keep a lot of standard cardboard sleeves from ending up in a landfill. Besides, it’s “not made of an actual crocodile.”
