These Are Some Of The Most Expensive Sneakers In The World That Even Your Kidney Can’t Buy

Sneakers are no longer a fashion piece or something that one gets out of necessity, they have turned into investment pieces. In fact, the reselling of luxury sneakers has a huge market today. There are certain items that get sold for more than their actual price due to the lack of quantity in the market, to begin with. This price can go to as high as 6 times the actual price and if that fascinates you then you need to know about some of the most expensive sneakers in the world.

The prices of these sneakers usually go up due to the collaborations or because of the limited quantity in production. More fascinating than the price of these sneakers is the fact that most of them are not from some luxury brands or from celebrity brands but rather from your familiar brands like Nike, Adidas and others.
