Adidas x Ravi Restaurant trainers advertised for up to Dh44,000 on resale sites – The National

The limited-edition adidas x Ravi Restaurant trainers were released on Thursday, with shoppers queuing from 4am to get their hands on the coveted footwear.

The shoes sold out within hours, which has lead to pairs quickly appearing on resale sites, including Dubizzle and Facebook Marketplace.

The trainers officially sold for Dh549, and while on Dubizzle the majority are being listed for resale for between Dh1,000 and Dh2,000, the highest price currently posted is Dh4,000 — a number that the seller notes is "negotiable". It is not clear if the shoes are fetching the amount they have been posted for.
