The black loafers that Michael Jackson used to perform his moonwalk for the first time on stage are going up for auction. The star owned the Florsheim Imperial leather shoes and wore them while practising his performance of "Billie Jean" for the "Motown 25" TV special in 1983. That marked the first time the King of Pop performed his famous backward-sliding dance move on stage. "Anything related to Michael Jackson is extraordinary, and to have something so incredibly historical as these shoes worn by Michael when he first did that now famous moonwalk is beyond special," Brigitte Kruse said. "We are so honored to be able to offer them at auction." She said they had a "very conservative estimate" on the shoes of $10,000. "These shoes are in wonderful condition for their age."
The shoes have been owned by dancer Lester Wilson, who said Jackson gave him the shoes in his dressing room after rehearsing with his brothers for the special. It's possible that the shoes were used during the performance on the special, Jackson referred to the pair as his "magic shoes".
"Billie Jean" and the album on which it appeared, 1982's "Thriller" made Jackson the first artist to have a No. 1 pop single, pop album, R&B single and R&B album at the same time.
Jackson began performing at the age of 5 with four of his five brothers as The Jackson Five. His first solo album, "Off the Wall" in 1979, sold more than 20 million copies and had four Top 10 singles. The music superstar died in 2009 at the age of 50 at his home near Los Angeles.
