Fans didn’t hold back as they shared their negative thoughts on the 41-year-old’s latest product.
The SKIMS TikTok account recently shared a that showed a model trying on the tight long sleeve top.
In the clip, the model showed how the same top could be worn for a “date night,” “to the office” and a “weekend hike.”

Shortly after the brand shared the video, Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans rushed to to shut down the idea that the top is work appropriate.
Alongside a screenshot from the clip, the initial Reddit user wrote: “THIS IS A OFFICE LOOK??”
The backlash continued as another added: “Tell me you never worked in an office without telling me you’ve never worked in an office.”
A third chimed in: “I’m getting a talking from HR if I wore that.”
While one person joked the outfit is only work appropriate for “the school counselor at Euphoria High,” another added: “It’s because they’re so out of touch with reality that they think this is an appropriate office look.”
“Imagine HR having to figure out how to tell you to wear a bra so your nips aren’t showing. And sending a memo that a** cracks shouldn’t be visible,” a following fan commented.
WORKING MORE?
Kim’s brand shared the video one month after she faced severe criticism for controversial comments in her family’s Variety cover story.
When asked to share advice for women that want to succeed in business, she told the outlet: “I have the best advice for women in business. Get your f**king a** up and work.”
The TV personality continued: “It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”
After Kim made the controversial comments during the Kardashians’ cover story, fans rushed to Instagram to slam Kim as “out of touch” and “ignorant.”
Meanwhile, others expressed their plans to boycott her brands SKIMS and KKW Beauty.
One user asked for clarification on how the Kardashians make their income, suggesting people stop buying their products.
They wrote: “I would encourage everyone who was offended by her attitude again yesterday to stop buying ANY of their products. That would at least put a real dent in their income they work so super hard for.
MORE BACKLASH
The new item is not the first time Kim has faced backlash for products in her SKIMS line.
Back in February, the Instagram account teased an item that features a bra and tiny underwear worn with chaps.
Alongside the photo, the account wrote: “Match your intimates to your midnight attitude in sexy logo mesh designed to make a statement every night of the week.”
KUWTK flocked to to slam Kim for selling the new lingerie set that they deemed as “not functional.”
While sharing their reaction to the item, one person wrote: “I don’t like it because it doesn’t really have a clear purpose. I’ve seen similar pieces though, and their purpose was just to look sexy. And this is very unsexy.”

Another added: “That’s weird…you couldn’t wear skims like Spanx because of the embroidery of the logo. Thigh would seep out the open places, and it’s not like it’s for bathroom access because you’d still need to move the underwear. But underwear and shorts?
“I agree with what’s been said, this is for kink not functionality.”
