We've seen Swarovski's dazzling crystal covered Air Max 97, but Dan Life's Air Jordan 1 creation is on another level in the sparkle stakes.

Covered in 15,000 crystals (yes, you read that right), which have been painstakingly fixed to the upper by hand, the Jordan Brand's most popular silhouette redefines decadence.

The conceptual artist's limited edition piece is inspired by the Northern Lights, reflecting the natural phenomenon's blue and purple toned aurora.

Each embellishment catches the light for a show stopping aesthetic.

The shoe is also complete with a comparatively understated white tongue and Air infused midsole, while minimal tan coloured leather hits the collar.

Retailed at a staggering $5,500 USD, or £4,275, extravagant sneakerheads can secure a pair now from Dan Life's official website.
