A pair of classic Michael Jordan sneakers are predicted to fetch over six figures at auction.
The shoes in question? A game-worn and signed pair of Air Jordan 7s from one of MJ’s most disrespectful moments on the court, when he sank a free throw with his eyes closed.
These gems were worn during a famous game on March 31, 1992, when the Chicago Bulls went head-to-head with the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. In the final seconds, Jordan stepped to the line, closed his eyes, and calmly hit a free throw. That moment became part of Jordan’s impeccable legacy.
Now those same “Hare” Air Jordan 7s are up for grabs through Sotheby’s. The auction runs from September 19 to 29, and experts believe the kicks could sell for anywhere from $400,000 to $600,000.
More than just sneakers, these represent a moment when Jordan didn’t just play the game—he rewrote its rules. For collectors, this is a chance to own a literal piece of basketball history.
And in true MJ fashion, even the sneakers are putting up big numbers.
