Since being flamed for his very small, self-publicized donation to the Black Lives Matter movement, Virgil Abloh has been slowly reconstructing his public image — despite personally contributing some sizable off-social amounts. Cancel culture was quick to act on Albloh, with calls to boycott his product following shortly after. But as it stands, for his collaborative Air Jordan footwear at least, it’s as popular as ever. It’s evident in his current charity auction, in which he has linked up Deviation Music to help bring some extra funds to The Black Curriculum and Inquest UK.
Currently sitting at over $15,000 USD, the auction of the unreleased and signed pair of OFF-WHITE x Air Jordan 4 is hitting a price point of epic proportions. It will arrive personalized by Virgil in the same approach as his previously gifted pairs — likely marked in Sharpie adjacent to the “AIR” text that dresses the sole. As mentioned earlier, all proceeds will be directed to The Black Curriculum as well as Inquest UK. So if you’ve got the cheddar and want to support the cause, you can get to bidding now right here on eBay.com; the auction will end Thursday at around 1:00PM.
