Drake owns a pair of 24-karat Air Jordans that weigh 100lbs

published 18 July 2016

When it gets to Christmas time and you’re figuring out what to get the man who has everything, here is the answer: a 24-karat pair of Air Jordans.

The melancholy Canadian rapper commissioned artist Matthew Senna to create these custom, one-off solid gold Air Jordan 10 “OVO’s”, that weigh in at a whopping 100lbs - about the same as a baby hippo.

We'd like to see Michael Jordan getting airtime in these weighty boots.

Who says money can’t buy class?
