A set of Michael Jordan’s legendary sneakers is scheduled to go up for auction.
When all is said and done, the Chicago Bulls icon’s basketball shoes have a chance to be worth $10 million.
Jordan’s shoe line is known as the “Dynasty Series.”
The pack includes a pair of Air Jordan sneakers that Jordan wore in every key game of the six NBA Finals series.
It includes the 1991 Air Jordan VI, Air Jordan VII (1992), Air Jordan VIII (1993), Air Jordan XI (1996), Air Jordan XII (1997) and Air Jordan XIV (1998).
Brahm Wachter, head of modern collectibles, revealed in a statement to the Daily Mail that the collection has been called “the Mona Lisa of sports memorabilia.”
After winning the 1991 NBA Finals, Jordan signed and presented his sneakers to Bulls public relations director Tim Hallam.
Jordan would repeat this with the next five titles.
He won the Finals MVP in each of his six championships.
The sneakers from each of Jordan’s championships will become the most valuable collection of sneakers ever to hit the market.
His partnership with Nike helped him transform the massive “Jordan Brand” as well as his basketball legacy.
Jordan thus became the first NBA player with a net worth of $1 billion.
As for the auction, it also includes photos of Jordan celebrating every championship except 1991.
Auction house Sotheby’s will auction off the goat’s shoes.
It was announced last year that the collection could only be purchased through private negotiations.
But after the set was shown to the public on a global tour, the auction house decided to accept bids as a way to find out its true value.
The auction will begin on February 2 and Jordan’s shoes are estimated to fetch between $7 and $10 million.
