TL;DR Summary

A pair of rare gold Nike Air Jordan Retro 3s, known as the "Spike Lee Oscars," worth over $10,000, were found in a donation bin at the Portland Rescue Mission in Oregon. The sneakers, worn by Spike Lee to the Oscars in 2019, were not released to the public, with only a few pairs made. After confirming their authenticity with sneaker designer Tinker Hatfield, the organization has enlisted Sotheby's to auction the sneakers, with an estimated sale price of $15,000 to $20,000. The top bid as of now is $7,000.
