Sneakers, or trainers, as our European friends call them, are possibly the most popular type of shoe in the Western world. Would you pay $50,000 for a pair of sneakers, though? What if they were encrusted with diamonds? Laced Up, a boutique based in Atlanta, Georgia, has just launched a new customization service called Solitaire Kicks. Their first offering, a $50,000 pair of Nike Air Force One So Cals, may just be the most expensive sneakers in the world.

Solitaire Kicks offers customers the chance to deck out their sneakers with yellow, blue or white diamonds as well as gold and platinum. Laced Up offers the service in partnership with Prriya & Chintans Couture and Jewelry, with whom customers will consult when customizing their expensive sneakers.
The So Cals themselves bear a Nike logo cast in gold and adorned with 11-carat diamonds. The diamonds’ casings are affixed to the shoes by gold stitching. The most expensive sneakers in the world were presented to rapper Big Boi at the Solitaire Kicks launch party in late November.

Cadillacs arent worth 60k, and most are like 40-50k. If you were smart you'd buy a vette.
they are covered with ice, that`s why they are so dear
no, its not ice. Its diamonds
ice = diamonds =|

they look like crap i wouldnt pay a penny for them
wow! they look normal! but, if i had the EXTRA money(not from anything i earned) i would buy it! but still, dont wear them! in the winter u could step in yellow snow! in the spring, u culd step in mud, and in the summer, u could squash a stinkbug! so wear in the small season calld”the fall”
wow!wow! it’t very beautiful sneakers but ,I can’t buy one for that money,or if I’ve got plenty money I can or if some one make me an offer there I acept for that reason.it better if we change the price or put it more down for us.(free shiping)
NO WAY! it looks like a crap dawg…i would prefer to buy a flip flaps for that,nyahahahaha! people that would buy that kind of shoes are stupid!
rappers really want those kind of shoes to brag that they are wealthy, well in fact they are nothing but waste in the community! it sucks!…wearing those baggy pants and extra extra large shirt! oh c’mon guys, have some shame on yourself dude! you really look like a clown for that attire, you might as well put some make up,hahahahaha!
your lame u wear all black with several chains in numerous places come on man you aren't any better your actually worse
And he got them for free so he's not flaunting his cash anyways
got them, step your game up
50,000 for a pair of sneakers they gone get dirty one day…SO NOT WORTH IT.
screw the shoe.
50,000! Who would buy those pair ! That’s just crazy…I rather buy a car then those shoes …there gonna get all jacked up soon… I seen better looking shoes at d mall and they ain’t 50g
Those shoes are hideous first of all it looks like the nike sign is crooked and without da diamonds they are 42$ shoes i mean come on they are regular air force 1n’s and he looks gay with pink and light blue shoes
These sneaker are nasty looking. I would not buy flat sole sneakers. Flat is more of a skateboarder style. I am not saying skateboarding sucks, it is cool, but I am just too old for that and I like more the heel sole split from front sneaker look, which hell of alot nicer than these, and you can get them for 50 Dollars. These are only expensive because they are limited produced. Just because they are expensive does not mean they are good.
Oh My God … THEY ARE AWESOME !
The Price Is Bad With That Money You Could Buy About 5 Pairs Of Good Designer Shoes x
50,000? i would rather jaeger lecoultre watch, dunhill, shoes……or puma alexander mcqueen shoes are tip top…
will i go to heaven if i buy one?that is bad.
DATS UNREADL!!!!
Seriously. The most I’d ever pay for a pair of sneakers would only be if I get my money’s worth. I’d pay up to $2,000 for a pair of shoes and that’s it. And I know for sure I won’t exceed $200 for a pair of Nike’s.
ohhh miiii gosh i sooo want dem shoes dey r sikkkkk
haha wow, If i had these i would just keep them in my closet i will be to afraid to wear them what if someone like comes out of no were and run off with your sneakers.. now that would be… odd or you get them dirt or a DIAMOND comes off!! omg well atleast you can sell the diamond
i have pair of nikes to but nothing like those 
Anyway i can buy like 200 pair of nikes i i wanted to out of $50,000 so i can have one for everyday use :p lol
wow they are some awesome trainers. Seen a pair for £35000 on UK ebay though nice ;?)
hell no i would not pay 50000 for these i would get like 200 pairs of nikes that look better then these
whats the point of allowing those expensive trainers to be on dirty paws
