Fat Joe in the Off White x Nike AF1 Low Arabic Sample

Fat Joe is one of the biggest sneakerheads in the world and he's widely considered one of the most prolific collectors of rare sneakers 👟

He recently stepped out with a never-before-seen pair of unreleased "Arabic" OFF-WHITE x Nike Air Force 1 Low samples 🤯

For those who don't know, Fat Joe is basically the rap game's Forrest Gump. He's been active since the '90s and has been around for major historical moments in both sneaker and hip-hop history. He's the real deal, and I give him a lot of respect when it comes to his place in history

He once got called out for owning a fake pair of the Entourage x Undefeated x Fukijama Gold sneakers, but I don't really fault him for that. It's hard to know when you're buying fake stuff, especially when you're a major celebrity

I had never seen or heard of these "Arabic" OFF-WHITE AF1s before, so to be quite honest, when I saw them, the first thing I thought was "FAKE." I'm not some rare sneaker collector though, so I'll take a step back and accept that these are probably real if Joe is flexing them as proudly as he is 🥸

Now that we're a little removed from the initial Off-White hype, it's kind of wild to look back and see these shoes for what they actually are. Like, are these actually that dope? I don't know, but back in the day, I would've killed for a pair of Off-White AF1s. I actually bought a fake pair of Off-White AF1s, the clear joints 💧

Looking at StockX, it's pretty absurd that anyone would spend $3k on these. 2017–2020 was a crazy time
