It’s been almost two years since we lost Kobe Bryant to the tragic helicopter accident that took his life as well as his daughters and 7 other people. Seems like a tasteful amount of time before you start selling his clothes.
We’re off to Geneva Switzerland – where who knew Kobe fans existed – to get a shot at his blue, white and gold Nike Air Zoom Huarache 2K4 basketball shoes.
They’re expected to fetch up to 35,000 Swiss francs (about $38,000) during a November 11 sale at Sotheby’s. Bryant wore the sneakers in a March 17, 2004, victory over the L.A. Clippers, according to the auction house.
He’s got some competition tho. At the same auction will be several baubles from France’s Marie Antoinette!
