| Most expensive sneakers ever? |
The sneakers were worn by MJ during his fifth NBA game in his rookie season on November 1, 1984 and stand as the earliest regular-season shoes to surface from the icon’s unparalleled career in the NBA. Estimated to sell for $1-1.5 million USD, the Air Ships holds the highest estimate for a pair of sneakers offered at auction and could become the most expensive sneakers ever.
