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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-jordan-23-1) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinite-auctions). 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.
