Okay, okay, let’s be real for a sec. We ALL know Dior is like, *the* definition of fancy. Like, you can’t even spell “boujee” without thinking of a Dior handbag, right? But I gotta say, their shoes? They’re sneaking up on me. Especially these leather ones.
I was scrolling through YouTube the other day, watching, you know, the usual influencer unboxing videos (don’t judge me!), and I saw this thing about YouTube Premium. Then, somehow, BAM, I’m staring at a Dior B27 Low in grey and white. And honestly? I was kinda blown away. Premium leather, they said. Intricate detailing. Basically, a testament to Dior’s dedication to…stuff. Fancy stuff.
Look, I’m not a sneakerhead expert or anything, but I *do* appreciate good leather. My dad used to make saddles, so I’m kinda sensitive to the feel of good quality hide, y’know? And these B27s? They LOOK like they feel AMAZING. The video mentioned something about craftsmanship, and you can kinda *see* it, even through a screen. I mean, look at the stitching! It’s like…perfect.
Then I stumbled across this “Chanel vs Dior” thing, trying to decide which brand is THE ULTIMATE LUXURY GOD. And again, there it was: more talk about Dior’s premium calfskin leather. They even mentioned the stitching being a nod to Dior’s tailoring history! Tailoring history! On a sneaker! My mind was blown.
I mean, honestly, how often do you think about tailoring when you’re picking out shoes? Usually, it’s more like, “Do these look good with my ripped jeans?” or “Can I actually walk in these for more than five minutes without wanting to chop off my feet?” But Dior’s trying to sneak in some serious art history on your feet, and honestly, I’m here for it.
But lemme be real for a sec (again). The price tag on these things is probably insane. Like, rent-for-a-month insane. So, realistically, I’m probably not going to be rocking these anytime soon. But hey, a girl can dream, right? Maybe one day, I’ll be strolling down the street in my premium leather Dior B27s, feeling like a million bucks. Or at least, feeling like I *spent* a million bucks.
