#2 - Fragment x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low
This double collab was not only heavily anticipated but also heavily invested in by collectors. One-third of Unboxed members who picked these up paid above retail ranging from $800 - $1600. Members put their investments to use. These kicks had one of the higher usage rates as many owners broke them out of the boxes, Un-DS'd them and rocked'em on feet which we love to see!
