1985 Nike Air Jordan 1 Sneakers Sell for $560,000 At Auction

Back in 1985. A pair of Michael Jordan sneakers cost around $65 in the store. I wonder how much would it have cost if they were game worn? What about signed by Michael Jordan too? Well a pair of 1985 game worn Michael Jordan sneakers with his autograph was just sold for a half million dollars at Sotheby’s. There was a global bidding war for these Nike Air Jordan 1 Sneakers. With the winning bid closing at $560,000. That’s three times the estimated value. Setting a new world auction record for a pair of sneakers. Today players takeoff their sneakers and give them to young fans at the end of the game. I haven’t seen players sign those sneakers, but I’m sure some of them have. If you know someone that’s ever received a pair. That’s what I call “The Real NBA Lottery.” Hey, you never know!
