How much would you pay for these?
A pair of Michael Jordan’s autographed Nike Air Jordan 1 shoes from 1985 are up for auction. Sotheby’s estimates the shoes will sell for more than $150,000 (57,500 OMR).
The mid-top range shoes were custom made exclusively for Jordan, so this pair varies slightly from the version available to the public. They material is different and feature red laces instead of black and white.
“Buy! Buy! Buy! There’s a bull market in Michael Jordan sneakers
“The Vintage Originals from 1985 are in the Chicago Bulls white, black and red — the Air Jordan 1 colorway that Michael Jordan wore the most often on the court,” reads a news release from Sotheby’s. “Produced between February to April 1985, Jordan wore the present pair of Air Jordan 1s during an early, pivotal point of his career and thus catapulted the sneaker’s popularity.”
