Sneaker-heads might want to take a moment to prepare themselves for the awesomeness that is the DJ3K Trunk. Created to celebrate Derek Jeter's 3,000 hit, the DJ3K Trunk is a one of a kind shoe trunk filled with every pair of Air Jordans ever made for Mr. Clutch himself.
Each pair of Jeter Jordans is signed and dated by the man himself. The trunk is actually not a one of a kind as there are two floating around, one of which belongs to Jeter himself. The other one is up for grabs and is being auctioned off online. The opening bid is $2,500 and all proceeds go towards Jeter's Turn 2 Foundation. The auction runs for ten days and there are currently no bids which means it's anybodies game. Gosh, I wish I had a couple thousand dollars to spare.
