A Memphis man, Charles Jennings, has been charged with theft after driving away with a truck full of 7,500 pairs of LeBron 12’s.
In early November, police say Charles Jennings, an employee of cargo transportation company Intermodal Cartage Group, used his ID card to get into a secure lot and drive away with the valuable shoes.
The first colorway of the LeBron 12 shoes were supposed to hit the market Oct. 11 in the United States, but a cosmetic issue delayed the launch.
Jennings had been selling the shoes for about a week, and when members of the task force found the stolen loot, some 700 pairs were missing.
The declared value of the merchandise, $623,280, likely represents the value of the shoes bought by retailers ($83.10 a pair). Those retailers then sell the LeBron 12 in stores for $200.
Jenning’s is free on $75,000 bond.
