The "Paris" Dunk: A One-of-a-Kind Blend of Art and Streetwear
The Birth of an Icon
The "Paris" Dunk was part of the spectacular White Dunk Exhibition, a traveling show that brought together talented artists to create contemporary art using the simple, white Nike SB Dunk as their canvas. What makes the "Paris" Dunk so unique isn’t just its extreme rarity – only 150 to 200 pairs exist worldwide – but also its artistic design. Each pair is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, featuring a canvas upper adorned with works by renowned French painter Bernard Buffet.
A Release Full of Chaos and Passion
From the start, the launch of the "Paris" Dunk was surrounded by excitement and chaos. Initially, the sneakers were supposed to be raffled as part of the exhibition. But due to overwhelming demand, the release was postponed and handled instead by select Parisian retailers, including iconic stores like Opium and Colette.
Sneaker enthusiasts camped out for days in freezing weather just for the chance to snag a pair. These chaotic scenes cemented the cult status of the "Paris" Dunk, making its release one of the most legendary events in sneaker culture history.
From the Streets to the Museum
Over the years, the "Paris" Dunk has evolved from a highly sought-after sneaker to a true collector’s item. No longer just a shoe, it’s now regarded as a work of art – a status reflected in its astronomical resale prices:
- At auctions, it has fetched record-breaking prices of up to $133,000.
- One pair even sold privately for around $150,000, making it one of the most expensive Dunks of all time.
An Exceptional Investment Opportunity
