Woman Buys Sneakers At Thrift Store She Is Shocked When She Sees The Label

 

     both thrift stores like a         big gram bag

many of the items you find there is

simply junk but sometimes just sometimes

you discover an invaluable Gem and

that's exactly what happened to this

Charleston woman Lauren was a single mother

of two sweet teenage boys raising her

two big Sons by herself was tough she

worked two jobs a day and yet was

somehow able to be ready at 6 PM sharp

every day with pans full of hot food

money had always been a problem so

purchases at the thrift store were

necessary then she saw these shoes

genuine Nikes in reasonable condition

and for only 10 euros she immediately

paid for these sneakers and proudly

presented them to her youngest son when

she saw was written on the label Lauren

burst into tears it was Friday morning

11 45 a.m. when it happened Lauren had

already been to the thrift store twice

that week it was a huge building with

according to the website over 50 000

items and with a tight monthly budget

searching for that valuable needle in a

haystack was more than worth it a few

days ago she already found a nicer

blouse for herself and bought a new

school bag for her oldest son for only

two Euros but when she found these shoes

she was 10 times happier but the shoes

had a big surprise in store door for her

she picked up the shoes and looked at

them from all sides they were a little

dirty but nothing a brush and some green

soap couldn't fix they look like they've

barely been warned so she had to have

them Benjamin her youngest son of 14 had

been wearing the same shoes for over a

year and before that his older brother

Ben wore them too Benjamin always got

the pass-throughs from his older brother

he didn't like it but understood that

his mother didn't have enough money to

buy new things for both of them Benjamin

really deserved his own pair Lauren

thought and for just 10 euros she

couldn't leave these Nikes behind but

soon she would discover the real value

of these sneakers full of Pride she

placed the shoes on the table and waited

for her son to come home from school he

opened the door and Lauren's size eyes

get big and then he saw the sneakers Wow

real Nike Dunks Nike Dunks were a

special kind of sneaker that used to be

associated with basketball although they

used more advanced athletic shoes today

these shoes were still very popular due

to their nostalgic value Lauren clearly

got the idea that she made a good

purchase and Benjamin was overjoyed and

immediately put the shoes on but then

his facial expression suddenly changed

as he looked at his feet Benjamin called

out I I feel something strange under my

foot he took off the shoes and looked

inside in the first shoe there was

nothing to see but in the other shoe a

tiny car was sticking out from under the

footbed the footbed was stuck with glue

it was a waste to demolish the shoe so

pulling it off the footbed clearly hurt

his heart but walking in shoes with the

card stuck in it would hurt his foot

after a while so just leaving it in

wasn't an option carefully he lifted the

footbed slightly exposing the car it was

slightly discolored from the years the

shoe was old but you could still clearly

read what it said first it listed a year

of production 1984. they were pretty old

shoes both mother and son were Amazed by

that but that wasn't all Benjamin Had

mistaken the type of shoe this was not

the widely known dunk model but the very

rare Air Force One model a type of shoe

that was developed worn and promoted by

the best basketball player of all time

Michael Jordan man that wasn't dull on

the label was his signature and a phone

number now both mother and son had

become quite curious so while Lauren

carefully polished the shoes Benjamin

picked up the phone and dialed a number

listed on the card he got a man on the

line and not just any man it was the

owner of the Nike Museum this man had

started collecting rare shoes in his

teens and now had the largest collection

of rare Nikes in the world but what was

his phone number doing in this shoe the

voice on the other end of the line

sounded confused at first the man

wondered how Benjamin had gotten his

number but when he heard what he was

calling for a small Cry Of Happiness

sounded from the other end of the line

had black Nike Air Force One shoes and

my card was in the soul please come to

the Museum of Chicago as soon as

possible you have no idea what you have

in front of you Lauren and Benjamin

lived in the suburb of Chicago and

decided to get in the car right away

they had no idea yet what bizarre

results this trip would bring

the two curious shoe owners arrived at

the Museum it was huge Benjamin had

never seen so many shoes together he

turned over the price tag hanging on one

of the shoes and saw three zeros written

on it unbelievable he'd never seen such

expensive pairs of shoes before it was

quite bizarre what kind of value had

been collected there the owner of the

museum hardly asked for the sneaker that

Lauren and Benjamin had in their

possession he inspected it for minutes

and looked at both of them obviously in

shock do you guys even know who this

shoe belongs to the shoes Lauren had

unwittingly found for a bargain warper

has the rarest shoes of all these were

in fact the shoes of the one and only

Michael Jordan they were the first real

Air Jordans worn by Michael in the now

blocked Air Jordan commercial in 1984.

the shoe is worth more than a thousand

and was once destined for this Museum

however it had mysteriously disappeared

during shipment thankfully the

destination of the shoe the museum and

the phone number could be found on the

card inside the shoe hence how Lauren

and Benjamin were able to get in contact

with a collector he was over a joy to

finally have his showpiece back so he

decided to do something incredible for

Lauren and Benjamin The Collector

obviously got the shoe for his Museum

after all he was the official owner but

he didn't leave them empty-handed

Benjamin got to pick out a pair of rare

Nike Dunks worth thousands of dollars he

also gave Lauren a finder's fee of

thousands with this the poor mother

could buy food drinks and clothes for

her family for the next few years what a

bizarre fun and what a wonderful end result.
