Released on July 2nd, 1997, Men in Black follows the story of long time government official ‘K’ (Tommy Lee Jones) and his new partner, ‘J’ (Will Smith), as they are tasked with monitoring alien activity on earth.

Seen here is the original shirt worn by Will Smith when his character enters the ‘Men In Black’ headquarters and begins his transition from ‘James Darrell Edwards III’ to ‘Agent J’, including in the famous scene in which ‘Agent J’ has his thumbprints removed. The shirt has been conclusively photo-matched by Resolution Photomatching. The pants have a ‘likely’ match from Resolution Photomatching. The sneakers and socks could not be conclusively matched to the film, but Sotheby’s does have some confidence in them given the shirt’s conclusive match, and the pants’ likely match. 

During the 1990s’, Will Smith had built a reputation for wearing coveted sneakers, specifically on the hit television series, ‘The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air’. In 1997, he furthered this reputation on the silver screen, showcasing Reebok Shaqnosis style sneakers in ‘Men in Black’
