Nike Air Mag

Cost: $37,500

Despite the promises, the teasers, the shoe’s appearances on Jimmy Kimmel, Nike is yet to drop a retail version of Marty McFly’s self-lacing kicks. But while the masses wait, a handful of insiders can happily forget how to tie a bow.

In 2011, the Swoosh teamed up with the Michael J Fox Foundation, auctioning 1,510 pairs of the iconic sneakers to raise money for the actor’s Parkinson’s charity. The first buyer was Brit rapper Tinie Tempah, who scratched his nostalgia itch (and bolstered his already sizeable sneaker collection) to the tune of $37,500.

Despite promising to never wear them, he broke the sneaker freak’s first rule at a gig a couple months later. Gonna hurt your resale, fam.

OVO x Air Jordan X & XII

Cost: $20,000 & $100,000

When Kanye jumped ship to Adidas, the Jumpman brand tapped Drake to fill his Yeezys. He’s proved a less pushy collaborator, happy to restyle Nike‘s existing silhouettes rather than try to make a pair of streetwear duck boots.

The first collaborative fruits were OVO (that’s Drizzy’s label, October’s Very Own)-branded spins on the Air Jordans 10 and 12. A year before dropping at an unannounced pop-up, Drake gave out a pair of each at a Toronto Raptors game themed in his honour.

Both recipients promptly fired up eBay, realising that the chance to stunt on the squad was less valuable than, well, a huge pile of cash.

Solid Gold OVO x Air Jordans

Cost: $2m

Those six-figure 12s aren’t even the most expensive Drake collabs, however. The rapper immortalised his Nike hook-up with a 24k gold pair earlier this year, created by American artist Matthew Senna.

They echo the original sneakers in every detail, apart from the fact that they cost as much as a mansion and each one weighs 50lbs. Which means Drake won’t be jumping over anyone.
