The Anti-Drone scarf is a real thing

I have seen some silly products but this one comes really close to taking the cake in both pricing and stupidity; the Anti-Drone scarf. This goes above and beyond the typical privacy and almost screams “for terrorists only” with it's Muslim influences. It seems to me like aluminum foil merged into a silk scarf and called fashion all the while while using big words like "thermal imaging surveillance".
According to the official website:
"Inspired by Muslim dress, the Anti-Drone Scarf conceptually aligns itself with the rationale behind the traditional hijab to act as "the veil which separates man or the world from God", replacing God with drone. The metalized silk scarf protects against thermal imaging surveillance (a technology used widely by UAVs/drones) by reflecting heat, masking the wearer's thermal signature. The enhanced garment is lightweight, breathable, and safe to wear."
Cost to you is $450.00 but if you’re a member at the site then it’s $382.50. I’m thinking for the cost of a roll of aluminum foil and a silk scarf that it’s a tad pricey.
Am I crazy here? I would love to hear what you think in the comments below.
