Mangione was wearing a white-collared shirt underneath the sweater in addition to light grey slacks and orange shoes at the courthouse.

The sweater was previously available for $89.50 according to the Nordstrom website, but it is currently on sale for $62.65 with 30 percent off.

“No fing way the sweater Luigi Mangione wore to court today is sold out,” one person pointed out on X/Twitter on Monday.
