Ten bidders from across the globe competed for the basketball legend's autographed Nike Air Jordan 1 shoes before the online auction closed at $560,000, the auction house said in a news release. The Nike Air Jordan 1s were made exclusively for Jordan, and featured red laces instead of black and white. "Produced between February to April 1985, Jordan wore the present pair of Air Jordan 1s during an early, pivotal point of his career and thus catapulted the sneaker's popularity," Sotheby's said. "Jordan wore Air Jordan 1s until October 29, 1985, when he broke his foot and subsequently took off 64 games during his second season while healing," Sotheby's said. "He wore modified versions of the Air Jordan 1 upon his return to the game."
