Drake has put over dozens of sneakers, but the Air Jordan 8 ‘Calipari Pack’ might be the most prestigious and untouchable pair he’s ever rocked. Almost no one owns a pair of the black or white AJ8 Caliparis and if they do, they paid an insane price for them. Let’s talk sneakers.

Drake was gifted the pack in 2016 and previewed both pairs on Instagram in April 2017. A release date was never announced and the shoes never reached a retailer, which puts them in auction and consignment territory rather than a shopping cart.
RM Sotheby’s sold a Home and Away set for $8,640 in its Dare to Dream auction.
Here’s a look at both pairs from refreshpgh.
It’s funny that a mostly basic colorway like this one carries so much heat, but that’s what happens when a sneaker is rare and endorsed by one of the most successful artists of all time.
