How much would you pay for a pair of shoes?

One person has paid $1.8m for a pair of prototype Nikes worn by Kanye West during his performances of Hey Mama and Stronger at the Grammy Awards in 2008.

This price has shattered the record for a pair of sneakers ever sold.

It is the first time a pair of sneakers have been sold for over $1m.

The size 12 shoes designed by West and Mark Smith are made of soft black leather. The design features a forefoot strap and signature “Y” medallion lacelocks in bright pink.
