114 of LeBron's game-worn shoes being sold to benefit 'I Promise School'
LeBron James officially opened the doors to the I Promise School on Monday, which will provide education and support to at-risk students in his hometown of Akron, Ohio.
One of the coolest features of the school, which was built in partnership with the LeBron James Family Foundation and Akron City Schools, is a lobby lined with 114 of James' game-worn Nike sneakers.

The matching shoe from each of the display sneakers will be sold online through UpperDeckStore.com, with proceeds going to the I Promise School. Those who purchase the shoes will have their name displayed on a plaque at the school.
Included in the lot is the LeBron 13 "Friday the 13th" sneaker James wore against the New York Knicks in 2015, the LeBron 13 Elite he sported during Game 4 of the 2016 NBA Finals, and the Kith x Nike LeBron Performance 15 he debuted on Christmas Day last year. Prices range from $15,000 to $35,000.
