Jordan Brand designed an exclusive Air Jordan 11 “Purple Rain” to honor the legendary musician Prince. However, due to his unexpected passing in 2016, the shoes never made it to him. According to @depeche23mode, this one-of-a-kind sneaker is the only pair in existence and is currently listed for sale at $100,000.
This Air Jordan 11 features an all-purple color scheme, highlighted by luxurious velvet mudguards and a suede upper and tongue. The opaque purple outsole enhances the regal aesthetic, while a white midsole and matching tongue lettering create subtle contrast. Metallic silver Jumpman logos add an extra touch of elegance.
A truly special detail of this sneaker lies inside—custom insoles featuring “Jumpman” in Prince’s signature font, complemented by falling rain graphics as a nod to his iconic song, Purple Rain.
With only one pair in existence, this sneaker is an ultimate collector’s grail, commanding an eye-watering price. For sneakerheads and music fans alike, this rare gem embodies a legendary fusion of basketball, music, and culture.
