An ultra-rare collection worth up to £46 million is going up for auction – including a pair of trainers worn by one of basketball’s biggest stars.

Among the 800 pairs of sneakers available, buyers can also spot a set of handmade racing shoes designed by Nike’s co-founder, Bill Bowerman.

The most sought-after-shoe, however, is the sneakers signed by Michael Jordan – which were made exclusively for him and worn during his opening years in the NBA.

Travis Scott’s Air Jordans, which were released as friends and family exclusives only and not to the general public, will go to the highest bidder – with the price starting at $15,000 (£11,000).

But the pièce de résistance are a pair of “Back to the Future” Nike Mags from 2011 and 2016.

The shoe, which premiered in the 1989 sequel, Back to the Future II, was an instant want amongst viewers for its futuristic look and abilities.

Due to high demand, Nike released 1,500 pairs of the 2011 design to the public in benefit of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.

The 2016 shoes feature the iconic response system; “Adaptive Fit”, which senses the wearer and tightens, or loosens, the sneaker according to size – bringing the film’s much sought-after design to life.

The high-top trainer is expected to go for up to $10,000 and $20,000 (£7,800 and £15,600) respectively.

The auction is being held by financier Miles Nadal, who said: “Assembling the Dare to Dream collection has been a huge passion project from the very beginning, and it has been an immense privilege to unite the finest in both automobiles and sneakers.”

Jam Press previously covered other exclusive items on offer – including a car which appeared in the James Bond film, Goldfinger.

The 1965 Aston Martin DBS is being offered without reserve at a cost between $750,000-$900,000 (£586,000 – £703,000).

An extraordinary auction featuring rare collectibles, including Michael Jordan's signed sneakers and handmade Nike "Moon Shoes", is set to dazzle buyers with items worth up to £46 million. The highlight is the iconic "Back to the Future" Nike Mags, expected to fetch up to $20,000.
