I wonder who sold them. Was it the ball boy that originally received them from Jordan or had he sold them on years ago for much less than the current sum?

No idea why anyone would want to spend that sort of money on a pair of worn shoes, but then I'm not a fan of basketball.

Trainers (sneakers) are widely collected, as is sports equipment/clothing with a link to a famous player.

With Jordan being one of the most famous sports stars in the world these basketball boots are the perfect combination.

They’re are worth whatever a collector wants to pay on the day, but the sale price was towards their lower estimate.

Never mind the trainers, they stayed at home, but got 10 pairs of undies that could be worth a mint. Whistle Whistle
