Steve Jobs left an indelible footprint on the technology industry. Now, a different kind of legacy – in the form of a “well-used” pair of Birkenstocks that still retain his feet’s imprints – has fetched a record-breaking price at auction.
A suede pair of the beloved German sandals, worn by Steve Jobs in the 1970s and 1980s, sold this week for nearly $220,000, the highest price ever paid for a pair of sandals, according to an auction house.
