Well, Sindonews is trying to test the price of the most expensive sneakers sold in BliBli. These sneakers are important, because they are very easy to fake. And these counterfeit, replica, or imitation goods are considered not to be “unlawful” in other marketplaces.
From the search results of Sindonews, the results were quite surprising. The most expensive sneakers sold at BliBli are equivalent to the Toyota Calya.
The sneaker is a red and white Nike Air More Uptempo x Supreme, sold by the Indo Shop store with a price tag of Rp. 141,750,000. Slightly different from the price of the Toyota Calya which is Rp. 146 million.
Indo Shop itself is indeed a store that sells original sneakers, with 96 percent positive reviews.
But, why is it so expensive?
The Nike Air More Uptempo x Supreme is indeed a rare shoe. Released on April 27, 2017. At that time, the retail price was USD 190 or Rp. 2.7 million.
However, this model is a bone of contention for two reasons. First, there’s Supreme’s name on it. And second, there’s a long history of the Nike Air More Uptempo.
Supreme itself is known as a hype brand whose goods are in demand by its fans who are called hypebeast.
Meanwhile, the Nike Air More Uptempo sneaker was inspired by the 1990s NBA player Scottie Pippen. In 1996, he got a special Nike Air More Uptempo shoe. The first basketball shoe with full air cushions visible from the side.
–Same with Michael Jordan with Air Jordan, Charles Barkley with Air Max2 CB, Pennie Hardaway with Air Foamposite One, Gery Payton with Air Zoom Flight, and others.
Nike, nicknamed Suptempo, was released in three different colors. However, the white/black/red colors inspired by the colors of the two Bulls’ uniforms are the most popular.

But is the Nike Air More Uptempo really that expensive? According to Sindonews’ search, it is only natural that the price for collaboration products with Supreme will be many times higher in the market (called reseller prices).
However, from the search results, the current resale price is at USD900-USD1000 or IDR14 million. Even if it is 2x the price of foreign resale, it is only at Rp. 28 million.
