A one-of-its-kind limited edition sneakers, filled with holy water, went out of stock within a few minutes and that too at a colossal price of USD 3,000 (Rs 2,13,106.50) in Washington. The distinctive pair of white Nike Air Max 97s termed ‘Jesus Shoes’ are manufactured by Brooklyn-based creative label MSCHF and its USP is that it was injected with holy water from the Jordan river, reported Fox News. AdvertisingA closer look at the shoe shows the river water floating in the sole. The shoe also features the Bible verse Matthew 14:25 — the passage describing Jesus walking on water — and a single blood drop to represent the blood of Christ. The MSCHF label releases new items every second and fourth Tuesday of the month.
