Now Ali has made the modest white and red sneakers available through SCP Auctions, where they’re currently fielding bids through this Saturday. The latest dollar tally is hovering around the $19,000 threshold.
Ali recounts his experience procuring the Air Ships from Jordan that night 30 years ago in this new interview with ThePostGame.com. Watch now.
