A unique pair of basketball sneakers are up for auction on eBay for a whopping $60,000. These signed 'Air Jordan Silvers' are vintage, extremely rare and most certainly pricy, but will surely appeal to several hardcore collectors around the word. Basketball sneakers like these don't come around very often, especially when they have been signed by Michael Jordan himself.
Air Jordans have been popular for decades now, and they are still in production and readily available to this very day. It is a much different story however, if you are interested in purchasing a pair of mint condition vintage Jordans. Depending on the year, edition and in this case if they have been signed or worn by the famous star, these vintage kicks can run you anywhere from $300 to $60,000.
