Michael Jordan‘s game memorabilia remains a hot collectible regardless of time, drawing fervent interest from fans and collectors alike. Anything touched by the 6x NBA champion can easily fetch millions at auction. The legend’s Championship Air Jordan collection by Nike is one among those. While the jaw-dropping value might surprise you, there’s uncertainty about whether this collection can surpass Jordan’s 2022 record-setting sales.

As per MailSport, the championship Air Jordan collection is “set to be sold at auction next week and could go for as much as $10MILLION.” The auction will be held next month by renowned auction house Sotheby’s. Named ‘The Dynasty Collection,’ this assortment features Air Jordan VI (1991), Air Jordan VII (1992), Air Jordan VIII (1993), Air Jordan XI (1996), Air Jordan XII (1997), and culminates with Air Jordan XIV (1998). The auction house called it “the most valuable and significant collection of Air Jordans ever.”

The Head of Modern Collectables Brahm Wachter labelled the collection the “Mona Lisa of the Sneaker collecting and sports memorabilia communities.” No wonder that’s what it’s being called as the collection includes sneakers from each of his 6 championship victories.

It won’t be surprising to watch the collection meet the expectations and fetch $10 million. However, it would be interesting if it could surpass Jordan and Nike’s 2022 success. His 1998 NBA Finals Game 1 jersey fetched an astounding $10.1 million at Sotheby’s. The record is still held by the champion.

Michael Jordan’s 1998 game-worn jersey shattered records with $10.1 million 

The value remains the highest amount ever paid for a game-worn jersey. The previous record was held by Diego Maradona’s “Hand of God” 1986 World Cup jersey, which fetched $9.3 million. It was also sold in 2022.

The jersey’s value is tied to Jordan’s extraordinary performance in Game 1, where he scored 33 points for the Chicago Bulls while they lost to the Utah Jazz. Despite the loss in Game 1, Jordan led the Bulls to their third consecutive NBA championship and sixth in eight years. Do you think the sneaker collection will surpass and break Jordan’s previous record? Let us know in the comments section below.
