Price is a huge factor in people’s decisions when buying sneakers, but which pairs are the most affordable and most expensive?
The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 takes the number one spot as the sneaker with the biggest wallet bite; selling for a whopping $372 per pair on average, this adidas model still managed to become the fourth most sold sneaker at eBay.
With three models coming in the top five most expensive, Nike’s Air Jordan range is revealed as one of the most pricey with models XVI, IV and XI selling for over $200 on average for a new pair. However, price isn’t stopping Nike Air Jordan shoes from taking 2 of the 10 top selling positions.
The New Balance 410 is the most affordable sneaker to buy outright at just $25. This means folks could buy nearly 15 pairs of these kicks for the same price as one pair of Yeezy Boost 350 V2. adidas Forest Hills and Vans Checkerboard come in as the second and third cheapest, all costing around $50.
