Steve Jobs' old sandals sold at auction for R3.8 million

A buyer has set a record for the highest price paid for a pair of sandals at auction, having paid $218,750 (R3.8 million) for a pair of Birkenstocks worn by Steve Jobs, CNN reports.

The pair of Birkenstock Arizonas were supposedly worn by Jobs during Apple's early days — back in the 1970s and '80s — and were sold with a 360-degree non-fungible token.
