Indisputable showstopper of the year, the Air Dior result of the collaboration between the iconic sport shoes brand and Dior Fashion Creative director Kim Jones is soon arriving to some selected shelves around the globe sometime during next month.
Rumored to be produced in a limited quantity of 8.500 units, the aggressively teased hightop sneaker has been on every sneaker enthusiasts’ mind during the Dior private party and reveal that took place in Miami during art basel , as many looking to pick up the somehow reasonably expensive Dior Jordan 1 for the $2000 USD price tag.
Now reselling for as low as a brand new city car could go for, the opulent signature, which is poised to take both low and high-top shapes, bears Italian-made leathers, the high-end Dior imprint’s signature monogram, modified Wings iconography and an imprint of the monogram under the sole.
Warning: No matters how tempting it could seem, we highly advise not to buy them through internet but in person with a well respected resseller. While the sneakers could be a ressell at as high as $90K & + on StockX , keep in mind that counterfeiter have tried their hand on millions of AF1, they will not have a hard time replacing the suede by high-quality leather and high quality imprints; So we advise, if you ever feel like spending a grid on this grail you demand to met at the nearest Dior store to check if the resseller is a registred customer or they have track of the serial number corresponding to the shoe.
There is one sure thing, the hype the shoe generated will surely reconcile everyone that it will be as hard to get your hand on the kicks as it was to lay hand on a the Supreme x Louis Vuitton collaboration, therefor, it is only right but to agree that V.I.P customers from the Dior stores and well-connected ressellers will lay hands on those sumptuous kicks before anyone does.
So lets all hope the lottery leaves a chances to those who have dream, such as us …
