Why someone paid over $200,000 for Steve Jobs’ Birkenstock sandals

A person has paid a whopping $200,000 for a pair of Birkenstock sandals worn by none other than Steve Jobs

Someone paid over $200,000 for a pair owned and worn by late Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs. This price tag makes it the highest price anyone has ever paid for sandals.

At auction, the brown suede shoes were expected to tip approximately $60,000 but the heavily worn pair far exceeded expectations.

An imprint of Jobs’ foot is forever marked on the sandals and were a known wardrobe favourite of his throughout the 70’s and 80’s.

They were recovered from the trash and now they are someone’s treasure, with a hefty price tag attached.
