Michael Jordan's famous sneakers, worn by him in 1985, breaks another record! Air Jordan are officially the most expensive sneakers in the world ever sold at auction and cost a full $ 615,000.
The sneakers, which were expected to sell for $ 650,000- $ 850,000, were used by the basketball star in the summer of 1985, in the match held in Trieste, Italy.
This is the highest price ever recorded for a pair of sneakers! The peculiarity of these shoes (apart from the fact that Jordan wore them) is that the left athlete has a piece of glass stuck there, since Jordan burst a glass during an incident.
The next sale surpassed the last record of a few months ago. In May, the same sneakers sold for $ 560,000.
The Air Jordan 1 sneakers are the first to contain a signature from the basketball legend. They were sold by collector Jordan Geller, the founder of the Shoezeum sneaker museum in Las Vegas.
