LeBron James fans are going to go crazy over this... the shoes he wore in his first-ever H.S. Championship are about to go on sale - but if you want to own them, he better have a lot of zeros in your bank account.
TMZ Sports has learned...the black and white Jumpman Swift 6s James wore when he won a state title as a rookie on the St. Vincent-St. The Mary Hoops team from Akron, Ohio will go up for auction in just a few weeks. And they're so incredibly rare that they could fetch over $200,000 when the final hammer blow hits.
According to Heritage Auctions, which is organizing the upcoming sale, the sneakers were gifted to LBJ's father-in-law, Eddie Jackson, in 2000.
Jackson says "Bron signed the kicks and delivered them after his huge game (25 points, nine rebounds) in the 1999-2000 Ohio High School Division III Championship against Jamestown Greenview.
James — who was 6-foot-2 as a freshman — added lettering to both size 14 shoes, writing his jersey number “23” along with “1999-2000 State Champs.”
The auction house states that the shoes will also come with their original box.
The Js are obviously ultra rare – they are one of a kind after all – but Heritage Auctions officials say this is also the earliest known James game ported gear.
Sneaker auctions start in February...good luck saving!!
