Cape Town – Twitter was set abuzz after a South African-based event organiser and artist manager Lindo Buthelezi, affectionately known as Dogg DBN, claimed earlier his week that he had received a pair of custom-designed Nike sneakers, valued at R50 000 from DJ Black Coffee.
Dogg DBN took to Instagram to brag about his expensive gift, sharing some snaps of the custom-designed, handmade Bertier Air Jordan 1 (AJ1) sneakers.

Since making his purchase, Dogg DBN has milked the moment for all the humour it is worth, posting various joke/skit videos and memes. He even changed his Instagram profile picture to that of the sneakers, with his bio now reading: “I only wear 50k sneakers”.

However, the pricy gift drew mixed reactions from Twitter users, with some criticising Black Coffee for spending so much money on sneakers instead of giving to the needy. Some, however, found the sneakers to be deserving of the R50 ooo they are worth.
Take a look at some of the Twitter reactions below:
