It's safe to say that the demand for Off-White x Nike sneaker collaborations is still riding high. Since Virgil Abloh and the Swoosh kicked off their partnership in 2017 with the launch of the coveted "The Ten" collection, releases between the two have continuously sold out while buyers are generally able to nab profits off of reselling the kicks. Now, it appears that fans aren't the only ones taking advantage of the high resale prices.

This week, one of the most sought-after Off-White x Nike styles allegedly popped up at a Nike clearance store in Portugal, but unlike the deals that shoppers would generally find in an outlet, the location was reportedly reselling the kicks for above the suggested retail price. According to Instagram users barbaralizardoo and 23kartel, the white-based colorway of the Off-White x Nike Vapormax was available to shoppers for a whopping price of €800, which converts to $886.

The Vapormax, which retailed for $250, is currently reselling on platforms like StockX for an average price of $683—with smaller sizes reaching upwards of $2,000. Check out the Instagram post below for images and a video of the claims. Nike has not yet returned a request for comment.
