The world's most expensive shoes are associated with great prestige. The owners themselves do not even undertake to wear them. Such valuable shoes look great on the shelves, so they gain more value over the years. How much do unique sneakers cost?
Although the prices of the most expensive sports shoes do not lie close to the value at which, for example, the gold Passion Diamond stilettos from the Jada Dubai brand are valued, they are still impressive. Unique models are distinguished by their high quality and design.
They can be set off with white diamonds, blue sapphire, and the design of the upper is enhanced with 18 karat gold. So it would seem that such shoes can only be found on the red carpet. Speaking of the most expensive sports shoes, it should be noted that they are most often part of limited collections.
Interestingly, the aforementioned pumps are very impressive, but only in theory. No one has yet decided to spend $17 million, even considering that Passion Diamond will be created to size. Once that happens, they could officially be considered the world's most expensive shoes. What's the situation in the sneaker world?
