Are Buscemi’s 100mm Diamond Sneakers worth HK$1 million?

Instead of a car, HK$1.02 million can also get you a pair of diamond-studded sneakers that make your every step sparkle. Luxury footwear brand Buscemi is renowned for its opulent sneakers and collaborations with celebrities. The latest Buscemi 100mm diamond sneakers come with a staggering price tag. The high-top sneakers adopt the classic design of the coveted 100mm model which typically retails for HK$6,900.

The limited-edition diamond sneakers boast 11.5ct of diamonds encrusted in the signature 18ct gold hardware which features a three-piece mechanical closure and lock. Apart from the diamonds and gold, the high quality that defines the brand is evident in the full-grain Italian calf leather base and the signature heel handle. The hand-painted edges and the stitch applique, which take 24 hours to make, are all crafted by hand by artisans in Civitanova, Italy. Combining creative street style, exquisite craftsmanship and luxurious materials, the diamond edition is only available from the brand’s downtown Manhattan store at 47 Wooster Street in New York City.
