Man named Roman Sharf pays $9,000 for pair of Donald Trump sneakers — but who is he?

Donald Trump, promoting a limited-edition of gilded high-tops at Sneaker Con in Philadelphia, was not liked by many except one man known as Roman Sharf.

Sharf, a watch dealer, who is popular for his collection of tangerine-size Audemars Piguets and Patek Philippes, ended up purchasing an autographed pair of the "Never Surrender" sneakers after putting forward a $9,000 bid through an auction held the same day on the app called " Whatnot".

“They’re still new — they smell like glue,” Sharf said Friday morning as he held the shoes to his face and took a whiff.

The pair of sneakers included an American flag of sorts, consisting of red and black lines and a blue box filled with spangly stars and stripes, according to The New York Times.

The sneakers had Ts embossed on the tongue and Ts on the sides. In addition, Trump's signature is displayed in thick black ink on the shiny right-toe box.

Sharf showed off his prize while standing on the second floor of the small building in Southhampton, Pennsylvania, which is also the headquarters of his company named Luxury Bazaar.

An office filled with vintage Louis Vuitton trunks, and old cassette tapes by Jay-Z, Whitney Houston, and 2 Live Crew made the interior of the office behind him.

Sharf was seen wearing blue Nike X Sacai “Fragments,” faded Dsquared jeans, and a navy blue golf jacket. He bought these luxuries on Wednesday during his visit to the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
