Charlotte will be buzzing this weekend as the Hornets are set to host this year's NBA All-Star game. Of course, the Charlotte Hornets are owned by Michael Jordan, so there has been a ton of hype surrounding the weekend, especially on the sneaker front. For instance, Charlotte-based sneaker boutique Social Status is reopening just in time for the weekend and their launch of the Social Status Air Jordan 6 which comes in snakeskin and cow fur. The shoe came out in stores and online today and instantly sold out. To help support the launch, none other than Jordan himself stopped by to take a look at the shop. Not only did Jordan grace the store with his presence, but he also pulled up in some highly-coveted shoes.
Of course, on Sunday at the Grammy's, Travis Scott dropped his Air Jordan 1 collab on the SNKRS app and the kicks instantly sold out. The shoes are so limited that they're now going for close to $1500 on sneaker reselling sites like Stock X. When you're Michael Jordan though, the SNKRS app is a non-factor. All he needs to do is make one phone call and he can get anything he wants.
Not going to lie, we're pretty jealous.
