This Collection of Air Jordan Shoes Will Blow Your Mind (WATCH)

1 minute, 45 seconds Read

I grew up in the age of Air Jordans. Every child wanted her. Only a few could afford them. They were the only shoes that mattered, at least in a teenager's mind. I remember saving up and buying my first pair of Jordan shoes. A black pair of Air Jordan V basketball shoes in 1990. What I wouldn't give for a pair today. I paid about $170 for it in the early 90s. Today a new pair would cost me almost $400.

The hobby of shoe collecting has not diminished. Air Jordan shoes are still a hot commodity. My son Chase has several pairs of his own and proudly displays them on the wall in his room. I'm sure you know someone who has their own shoe collection. But trust me, you've never seen a closet full of shoes like the one this NBA champion recently showed off.

Jason Tatum plays for the Boston Celtics in the NBA. He is an NBA champion and also happens to be a Jordan brand ambassador. Judging by his shoe collection, he can clearly get any Jordan shoe he wants!

I can't imagine the value of Tatum's shoe collection. It has every color variation imaginable and many that I didn't even know existed. If you're a Jordan fan like me, going into this shoe closet would be like a trip to sneaker heaven!
