Description
1987 Michael Jordan Game Worn Shoes - From 61-Point Performance in Detroit! Sam Smith recalled it best in the Chicago Tribune game story after the Bulls' 125-120 overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons at the Pontiac Silverdome on March 3, 1987 - The Bulls stole a game Wednesday night, but Michael Jordan stole the hearts of 30,281 fans...Jordan added his thoughts on the game that ended up being his forth-highest in his career: Nobody's ever really unstoppable, but I felt close to it tonight, said Jordan. It was a big game for us, and the most important thing to me is that we won. But it was also great entertainment for the fans and great basketball, and that's fun.
A truly historic pair of Air Jordan II sneakers, the museum-quality artifacts were originally obtained by a Pistons ball boy who had the thrill of working one of the most memorable games in MJ's legendary career. With no size tag present, they measure at 12.5" in length, and the proper "Made in Italy" tags are in the interior tongues of each. Exhibiting phenomenal wear throughout, the rubber soles display significant cracking, which is typical of most Jordan vintage gamers.
Sure to rival the record realized prices of any pair of Jordan shoes ever to hit the auction block, these may end up at the top of the all-time list after the gavel hits. Letter of provenance from former Pistons Ball Boy. LOA from Heritage Auctions.
