— Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) April 26, 2015 Game-worn Michael Jordan shoes sell for $71,000
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
One pair of game-worn Michael Jordan shoes sold at auction for enough money to buy approximately 2,200 pairs of regular shoes during a Rack Room “Buy one, get one half off sale.” To be fair, these were some pretty special sneakers. Not only were the Nike Air shoes worn by the GOAT himself, but they were from his 1984 NBA season.
Credit where it’s due: I have shoes that are three years old that are in worse shape than these. Kudos to whoever kept them looking like good for three decades.
