The Converse sneakers Michael Jordan wore in the gold medal game of the 1984 Olympics against Spain sold at auction for $190,372.80.

The shoes, which were autographed by Jordan, were the property of the ball boy who worked the game as an 11-year-old and received the sneakers from Jordan.

According to ESPN, the auction set a record for the highest price for game-used sneakers - one that was already held by Jordan. The Nikes Jordan wore during the flu game in the 1997 NBA Finals previously sold for $104,765.
