Kylian Mbappe Receives a Special Gift: A Pair of Air Jordan Sneakers 🎁👟

Kylian Mbappe appears to have received a belated birthday present from Dior Artistic Director Kim Jones, and it just happens to be the first silhouette from the upcoming Jordan Brand x Dior line, the Air Jordan I High OG Dior.

Kylian Mbappe is a sneakerhead, and Nike recently gave the PSG superstar striker his own signature Air Max 98 as part of his debut collection, ‘Bondy Dreams’. He revealed the unexpected Air Jordan I High OG Dior gift on his Instagram stories, highlighting yet another advantage of being the world’s most valuable athlete, despite the gift arriving roughly a month after his 21st birthday.

Along with his passion in sneakers, Mbappe is an avid basketball fan, and after meeting with the Charlotte Hornets ahead of their NBA season opener in Paris, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the Frenchman on the court. It wouldn’t be surprising if he was also wearing his new Air Jordan I High OG Dior. If you’ve got it, flaunt it; there aren’t many better places to do so.

The collaborative, limited-edition Air Jordan 1 High OG, which coincides with the 35th anniversary of the Air Jordan and celebrates the first Dior men’s collection debut in the United States, combines the timeless appeal of the shoe with the emblematic style of Dior, highlighting the cross-cultural crossover of America and France, as well as haute couture and high-performance sportswear – right up Mbappe’s alley.
