My son was showing me some old used Nike Air Jordans (80s, 90s models) for sale on line with asking prices up to 5k. Made me wonder if certain models of running shoes if kept and stored for x # of years would eventually be worth anything? Do you keep your old shoes? My dad still has a pair of Nike Mariahs from the 80s. Doubt they are worth anything and not sure why he has kept them.
It's hit or miss with this stuff.
It's like collecting baseball cards, or anything that could be collectable down the log.
My buddy found out his father kept some rare Coke glasses, and they are worth like $500 a piece, if not more.
Only way to find out is to ask around or do some research on flebay and some popular auction houses...
I sometimes buy shoes to resale later. I find that shoes either go up or go down in market price. I have bought shoes thinking they would go way up and value, and they will drop 50%. Then I will have a pair I buy because I plan on wearing in the future and they will go up.
