Which version do you have?
For the absolute cheapest way to own it, grab the Standard version for around $7. The Black Back version at $25 offers a noticeable premium, likely due to its unique aesthetic or slightly lower print run compared to the standard issue. If budget is the primary concern, buy Standard. If you value the distinct look or want a slightly more desirable piece, the Black Back is worth the extra investment.
