These Dior x Air Jordan 1 High Sneakers debuted in the Dior Pre-Fall 2020 show at the Rubell Museum in Miami. Designed by Jones, a devoted Air Jordan collector himself, the sneakers are an upscaled version of the classic shoe. Crafted in Italian factories using the same premium leather as Dior's iconic handbags, the sneaker features the Dior Oblique logo jacquard on its signature Nike swoosh.

Taking place 18 months after Jones' debut at Dior, the collection was a vibrant celebration of men's fashion, marked by a partnership with legendary streetwear designer Shawn Stüssy, who came out of retirement to collaborate on the collection. This collaboration marked a milestone in the synthesis of high fashion and street style, a defining theme of Jones' vision at Dior.

Of the highly sought-after collaboration, this very special pair from the collection of Kim Jones is numbered 0001 of 8500, a unicorn for the avid fashion collector and sneakerhead alike.

Deadstock condition. Accompanied by original box, dustbags, Dior insoles, additional laces, and original Air Jordan charm.
