Help Needed: late '80's Magic Johnson signed shoes
 

As a kid of the late '80's / early '90's I love the look of this pair of Magic shoes with box. One is signed. I am not familiar with Magic's older sig. Would this be a legit example? What is a fair price to pay on this "kicks"? I would like to correct the title of the thread - as these are early 1990's shoes not late '80's.

Thanks!

I would pass.

Thanks Jim. Is there anything specific that grabs you?

I'm no magic expert, but wow that looks bad. From my comparables not even close, looks fresh as well

Not Jim, but for me the magic who its scripted and also his last name

Borrowed from EBay auctions:

The shoes are in mint shape, with a near mint box and come with a sellers letter (he managed a shoe store in town in the 1990's and Magic attended the release event for his line of shoes)

Look at his last name. But are these eBay ones "certified" mainly his first names all commented

I would pass because:

• Usually has big M,A,P (not 9) in slightly decending size
• Comes from a timeframe at the height of forged items.

Not comfortable at all overall, from first glance to last.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the feedback.
