More About The Louis Vuitton x Air Jordan 1 “Prism”
These sneakers feature a stunning silver iridescent monogrammed material. When light hits them, the toe box and quarter panels shift to an orange hue, while the overlays reflect vibrant shades of blue and purple. The dazzling, multi-coloured upper is elegantly perched on a classic white midsole and a grey rubber outsole, all tied together with crisp white laces.
The silver upper is crafted from pieces of Virgil Abloh’s Prism bags, which debuted in LV’s Fall Winter 2019 men’s runway collection. These bags alone can fetch upwards of $3,000 USD on resale platforms, and that’s before adding the cost of the custom Jordan 1 silhouette and the labour involved in creating these exclusive sneakers.
This unique pair costs $10,000 USD, as shown in a video by @sole_loco. However, the exact buying details are not clear.

The materials may be a bit flashy and might miss the quintessential luxury feel, but it’s still fascinating to explore what’s possible.
