    Worn Pair of Jordans Sold for How Much?

    Posted on April 29th, 2015 by Joe G

    How much would you pay for a pair of Jordans? How much would you pay for a pair that Michael Jordan actually wore?

    While a new pair these sneakers don’t come cheap (the average pair costs around $200), one enthusiast spent a whole lot more than that at an auction.

    The Nike Air Ships worn by Jordan during his rookie season in 1984-1985 sold to the anonymous buyer for $71,533. They were previously owned by a former Los Angeles Lakers ball boy.

    What do you think? Us Chicagoans love our teams, but would you be willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for stinky old shoes?

    Customer Testimonial

    Had a Great Experience

    I have dealt in coins and metals since the 80s. Had dealings with many dealers. Got scammed by a few. Chicago Gold is the only one I would recommend to my family or friends. Have your valuables appraised by them before you sell.

    I'll be back

    Cashed in some silver coins and received a very fair exchange. Joe and Chris, were very friendly, and comfortable to deal with. Came back with some jewelry, and received a rough appraisal...again no pressure.

    I would do business with them again

    I found the Chicago Gold Gallery to be a very honest and reputable shop. I would highly recommend this store to anyone buying and selling their possessions.
