Michael Jordan is someone who has won a lot of NBA Championships. Overall, he has six to his name, and they were all worn during the 1990s. If you hated the Chicago Bulls, then this was a bad time for you. However, if you loved Jordan and his team, then the 90s were a time of jubilation. Moreover, he also got to wear a ton of amazing sneakers during these years. In fact, some of his most iconic sneakers were produced during the years of his championships.
The shoes that Jordan won titles in are the Air Jordan 6, Jordan 7, Jordan 8, Jordan 11, Jordan 12, and even the Jordan 14. Although shoes like the Jordan 8 and Jordan 14 aren't his most popular, they are still iconic thanks to his accomplishments. Now, Sotheby's has all six of these iconic silhouettes in its possession. No, we are not talking about retros or retail pairs. We are talking about game-worn shoes that Jordan sported during his championship playoff runs.
