Sneakers at the presidential inauguration?

Well, yeah, but they weren't just any old pair of sneakers.

Nikolas Ajagu - the husband of Kamala Harris' niece, Meena, and the father of the Vice President's adorable grand nieces - was spotted wearing Dior x Air Jordan 1 Retros at Wednesday's swearing-in ceremony. The swanky shoes retail for $2,000 but have been spotting on the resale market for more than $25,000.
