"Russian CEO Wins Autographed Golden Donald Trump Sneakers in High-Top Sneaker Launch Amid Controversy"
Russian CEO Roman Sharf won an autographed pair of Donald Trump's golden "Never Surrender high-tops" at Philadelphia's Sneaker Con after placing a winning bid of $9,000. The limited edition sneakers, part of Trump's new shoe line, feature an American flag detail on the back and sold out within two hours of the launch. Sharf, the founder of Luxury Bazaar, plans to eventually pass the shoes down to his children and currently intends to display them in his office. Trump's shoe line also includes a low-top style and a perfume, with the announcement coming after a New York judge ordered Trump to pay $544.5 million for allegedly inflating his net worth.
