Ever wonder what it would be like to walk in the shoes of Michael Jordan? If so, Sotheby’s has an opportunity just for you. The “Dynasty Collection” comprised of the actual shoes the Goat wore in all 6 series clinching games for all 6 of his career NBA Championship and will soon be auctioned off by Sotheby’s.
If you’re fortunate enough to score the winning bid, here’s the history that comes with the shoes:
1991 - Air Jordan VI Infrared - Game 5 - 30 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists, 5 steals - Bulls beat the Los Angeles Lakers 108-101 at The Forum in Inglewood, CA to win the series 4-1
1992 - Air Jordan VII Raptor - Game 6 - 33 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 steals - Bulls beat the Portland Trail Blazers 97-93 at Chicago Stadium in Chicago, IL to win the series 4-2
1993 - Air Jordan VIII Playoffs - Game 6 - 33 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal - Bulls beat the Phoenix Suns 98-97 at America West Arena in Phoenix, AZ to win the series 4-2
1996 - Air Jordan XI Bred - Game 6 - 22 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals - Bulls breathe Seattle SuperSonics 87-75 at the United Center in Chicago, IL to win the series 4-2
1997 - Air Jordan XII Taxi - 39 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal - Bulls beat the Utah Jazz 90-86 at the United Center in Chicago, IL to win the series 4-2
1998 - Air Jordan XIV Ferrari - Game 6 - 45 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 4 steals - Bulls beat the Utah Jazz 87-86 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, UT to win the series 4-2
The collection is currently in the midst of a world tour and is currently on display at Sotheby’s Dubai. The next stop will be in Hong Kong from April 1-April 6 and will then be on display in Singapore from May -May 6. Once the tour wraps up there will be a private auction hosted by Sotheby’s.
Sotheby’s seems to have market cornered on game-worn Air Jordans as they also have Jordan 13s he wore in Game 2 of the 1998 Finals against the Jazz. All pairs up for auction have been independently verified authentic and hand signed by MJ himself.
The “Dynasty Collection '' isn't just a piece of memorabilia, it's a piece of Americana that holds as much cultural significance as a collection of works from Andy Warhol or Edgar Allen Poe. The collection is expected to draw bids upwards of $100 million, if that fits your budget visit Sotheby’s for more information.
